I'm with you. We need a media poop-storm over the issue. Then maybe the NFL bosses will be too embarrassed not to make a move.

These replacement refs have no respect from the players and it shows. Sooner or later they're really going to F one of these games up bad.

I think they f'd our game up pretty bad. I mean the 1st quarter was an abortion and in general their lack of control and game management was glaring. I can't say we lost because of it but I am pretty sure that game yesterday is completely different if the refs do their damn job better.

They lost control of the game. But to me, at least yesterday, the players had no respect for each other. We lost the game with their best player benched cause he couldn't control his emotions. I hope we will see the same from our staff.

And that's when it's time for the refs to step in and take control of the game.

Re: Replacement refs: The story the NFL wants to keep quiet

I don't think anyone is or should be pinning the loss on the replacement refs. But they are a major concern not just for the Skins but for the entire league. And as the season goes on, the problem is only going to get worse.

The league can go on and on about player safety all they want, but when they are willing to trot out subpar refs who have no control of the game or respect from the players and coaches, let alone knowledge and understanding of the NFL rules, it's a problem.

Who's to blame for the deal not getting done with the regular refs?
