The correct call would have been a 10-yard penalty for assisting the runner. You say assisting the runner, I say trying to get the runner out of the way to make the block. Still though my point is bad calls have been happening all year. So why get hung up now on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were to look at the number of flags thrown for each ref there is gonna be one team they blew the whistle on more then others. That does not mean that ref hates that team or has something against them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ref has a history of flagging a specific team more than others, I'm not sure how you explain that when there are no other constants.

Maybe that one team just happens to play more poorly when he's around or maybe he's just a terrible ref. But for every ref there will always be one team at the top and may change from time to time. Doesn't mean anything. The Cowboys have been the most penalized team in the league for the last few years, doesn't mean all the refs have it out for the Cowboys. Otherwise we should be playing the Saints this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it means the Cowboys are not a disciplined team. That's not related to the issue here. Ref bias does mean something. And it's something we shouldn't be asked to ignore.

Maybe they've gotten scared of making a mistake around him and it makes them anxious leading to more mistakes? Who knows maybe he is biased.

I recall Patriots fans complaining about Jerome Boger's crew on the old boards. But it actually gets better. Not only did their fans complain about Boger, Patriots media members AND Tom Brady complained about Boger. Of course, this thread isn't about the Patriots. It's about our two favorite teams.

We don't want someone reffing our game that has a history of giving the Rams the short-end of the stick. The turning point in our first matchup was the Hekker spot. Mike Pereira thought it was a bad spot and thought there was enough evidence to overturn it. That didn't happen. I personally don't recall the Falcons game last year or the Eagles game this year to be poorly officiated against the Rams. I think it is fair to not one someone to ref the re-match when they screwed up a pivot call in our first meeting. We'll see how the game goes and we can only hope that there is no egregious calls either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not about the quantity of calls, it’s the quality. For example, not giving us the extra yard which would’ve made a first down on a 4th and 1. Calling defensive pass interference instead of defensive holding to give them extra yards calling holding at the worst possible time, even though almost every snap can be a holding call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
