I can't recall any season where we have had so many HUGE calls go against us.

There's a theory going around that the league told the refs at the beginning of the season the screw Gibbs every chance they could but that might be a little over the top. The Philly receiver looked like he stepped out at the 47 to me and even the guys in the booth (including Brian Baldhead who is a known 'skins hater). And let's face it, if Ola Kimrin was so great, he wouldn't have been available in the first place. C'mon we signed him from NFL Europe!

Every NFL officiating crew has it in for the Skins. Everyone.

I'm not one for conspiracy theories but w/all of these horrendous(sp?) calls coming from multiple officiating crews, this is just blowing my mind. I don't know what the fudge the officiating crews are watching either during the game or during reviews but this is absolutely ridiculous to be happening with supposed "professional" refs. and I hate blaming stuff on refs but after that terrible review, the momentum was completely on the side of the bastard iggles

LTSF as crazy as that might first appear I was saying similar after the dallas game, there is no way that all these call's don't have ulterior motives there is something to that, I loved the part where the ref comes back from the booth and say's the ruling on the field stand's as if they got the call right, everyone saw him step out of bound's before Gibb's challenged it I was shocked they spotted it for a first down I knew he was past contact before he passed the 1st down marker so essentially he would have had to run out on his own soon as I saw the replay I said challenge and when we did I was saying we finally won one, at the very least he should have said it was inconclusive not that it was basically a bad challenge by us, it was like he was deliberatly sticking it to us, Gibb's face after that call basically said it all, I also liked the spot on McNabb's run on 3rd down to our 12 yard line, Taylor nailed him a yard back and the ref's advanced the ball for a first down, knowing they are on the lookout when a QB run's to see where the ball is when he goes into his slide they spotted it forward anyway, and of coarse we didn't challenge the spot. I know it sound's crazy but there has to be somthing to it.

I dont know if it would have been teh difference in the game today, but that call was a huge swing.... and it was freaking b.s.... you gotta be kidding me with that. I mean I understand if they blew the call on the feild, but AFTER THE REVIEW??? That was absurd. I dont even want to get into the refs right now.

agree or disagree but threads like these just show how crappy the skins really are... only the crappiest of crap teams discuss this... some calls may be crappy, but the only thing crappier than the refs is the O

I say you were right but it has been bad in other ganes with other teams as well!!! I really don't think it's the Refs against the the Redskins I think it's a case that the refs are just don't do there job that well! The are just piss poor....old guys that can't see! I just think the NFL could do better!

The refs screw everyone.

But when you're a team that's struggling, the bad calls hurt even more.

The refs only screwed us on a couple of calls. Bottom line is, is that the players have execute the plays and not commit stupid penalties. Especially in the red zone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't figure out how they didn't reverse that Pinkston call. And the pass interference on Smoot was a bunch of BS also. They were just tangled up and the ball was way overthrown anyway. It seems like the Skins get screwed by officiating every week. But by far the worst agonizing moment of the season, let alone the night was when the Redskins had the ball first and goal on the 10 down 14-6. They proceed to have about 4 penalties(all of which were legitimate) and 2 dropped passes and end up missing a 48 yard field goal! How do you go from first and goal to kicking a 48 yard field goal? What a train wreck. You can't f-ck up any worse that that. I would expect better execution from a high school JV squad!

Most of the first half calls went our way. We've had some bad calls and some screw jobs against us this year, but we weren't screwed out of anything yesterday. We had first and goal down by 8 and when we self-destructed, I knew right then and there the ballgame was over.
