They really have been bad, in lots of ways. Everything from obvious bad calls - touchback at the 4, to game time management - do you really want the Giants to have a free play at the end of the first quarter? To just getting the announcement correct. Obviously the big bloopers are what get national attention, but my guess is there are plenty in each game to drive coaches, players, and soon the fans crazy.
The league has gone way too far in trying to protect the QB's. If a defender tries to knock down a pass and accidently hits the QB in the head they throw a 15 yarder. I guess the league isn't smart enough to figure out that slapping someone in the head while their helmet is on doesn't hurt, nor is it going to cause a concussion.
