God Why Can't The Refs Be Fair

the penalties flat out didn't matter, they matter much more in a close game... even without those bad calls this week, we still lose.

How can you say the penalties didn't matter?

The penalties were the reason we got pushed back to the 35 after having a 1st and goal.

If we got a TD in that situation it's 14-13 and an entirely different ballgame.

I agree with Matty

Redskins_P · 11-22-2004, 01:18 PM

Guys we had 12 penalties for 115 yds. 4 of them in the red zone. I think it's safe to say that they did cost us the game.

Redskins_P · 11-22-2004, 02:08 PM

I think Wilbon sums it up for all of us.

Chantilly VA: The officiating was atrocious to say the least, how could they let stand the call where the Eagle player's foot was obviously out of bound when replay was so clear? I guess the NFL sent the third rate crew to unimportant games?

Michael Wilbon: Your team, failing to reach 20 points for the 10th time this season, scores six points...your receivers drop passes and your linemen can't stay set (even after a timeout) and your concern this Monday morning, at 3-7, is the officials? The Zebras? Are you drinking the same stuff those people at The Palace of Auburn Hills were consuming. Don't come in her with this referees junk when your team gets its butt whipped. After the Green Bay loss, okay. The call directly affected the outcome of the game. But last night's loss? Please. The Redskins still cannot score and they cannot score because the downfield passing attack isn't what it ought to be. Period. No analysis of anything that deals with the Redskins this season should start with referees. Log off now, go to a dark place, and take a nap.

Thank you

The calls really hurt us because we are just not good enough right now to overcome even small errors. As for the out of bounds and the pass interference call, they were both very big plays in the game that went against us and insured we wouldn't be able to come back, given our anemic offense. So sure, Wibon is right, but that doesn't mean the penalties didn't affect the outcome and that they were by ANY MEANS GOOD CALLS.

But until we socre some points and win some games, we have no credibility. We just sound like whiners, even if we're right. So we've got to move on.

The un-reversed out-of-bounds call could have been a momentum swing. They would have had to punt, then who knows.....instead, the Iggles keep the ball and drove down the field. If you can say that doesn't affect the outcome of the game, I don't know what does. I'm not saying we would of won the game if it had been reversed, but it seems like there have been questionable calls in every game, and more of them have gone against us than in our favor (although some have).
But that's how it is in the NFL...the officials always tend to sway towards the top teams, and away from the "bad" teams. This is a fact. It is hard for Gibbs, and the rest of us, because when he was here before, he usually got most of them in his favor (because the Redskins were a top team!). Call it luck, or "the ball bounces their way", but that's how it is, and until the Skins can find a way to start winning despite the bad breaks and bad calls, it will only continue.

when i said penalties didn't matter i meant the refs' calls, sorry for any confusion... the 120 yards in false starts did matter, for sure...

Lovely!

Show some class!

Not unless the Cowboys need to win for us to make the playoffs.
