You wanna talk bad officiating, how about that incomplete pass by Herbert that was ruled a fumble and touchback ? And that phantom hold that took Jones TD off the board ?
Was Payne held on that 3rd and 15? Yes. Do officials miss the same kind of holds every game? Yes. Was the OPI call on McKissick ticky tacky ? Yes. Was it a foul by rule and did he sell it awfully bad? Yes.
Point is, bad officiating and missed calls happen all the time, I didn't think we were getting blatantly robbed by the Zebras in this one. We lost because our D played even worse than the 2 previous weeks. Which was already really ugly.

If people can bitch and whine about this loss being the end of the world, let us complain about the bad officiating.
You can agree that both the team sucked and lost this game in a bad way, AND officiating in the first half was pretty atrocious. They are not mutually exclusive.
