NFL head of officiating Tim Donaghy says the spot was correct

 

[ShamrockPride]

Yay NFL your media darling is winning!

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Fans got what they wanted on that series.  What a joke.

Fire that idiot, too. 

 

[GoBirds]

Nice TD drive for the refs. I mean Raiders. 

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

NFL head of officiating Tim Donaghy says the spot was correct

...and therein lies your problem

 

[ShamrockPride]

So by my calculation, the refs jobbed Houston out of 10 possible points tonight.

 

[renesauz]

Just like that my 20 point lead becomes 10

This just in, NFL head of officiating is high on crack. 

Donahhy is a crackhead.

14, but let's not split hairs. 

 

[belljr]

End now please

Last Monday night the refs couldn't spot the ball and set the clock, costing the Bills a legit shot to upset the Seahawks. 

No disciplinary actions for those refs, so I guess these guys are safe too. 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Why does Brock NEVER dump the ball to Miller?

 

[Pigskin Fanatic]

this is as blatant as I have ever seen a screw job on a team. rooting for the raiders, but c'mon.

 

[pbandy1]

OK, I need a game-tying drive by the Texans, and then another 40 yard TD from Cooper. 

 

[GoBirds]

Osweiler is so bad he hits DBs so perfectly in the numbers they drop INT out of shock. 

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Trump should build a wall just to prevent these refs from coming back to the United States. 

 

[ShamrockPride]

If Nuk breaks off another big TD (cause it was), already calling the flag bringing it back.

 

[belljr]

Wasn't the line the 14?

Not schtick I just turned back to it

 

[Smarge]

Osweiler understand he has a serious threat as his check down?

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Osweiler is so bad he hits DBs so perfectly in the numbers they drop INT out of shock. 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Um...they're punting with 1 timeout left?

 

[ILUVBEER99]

LOL at punting here with only one timeout left.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Bill O'Brien is so nutless. 

 

[Arodin]

Didnt Houston's coach pull a gutless punt like this earlier in the year?

 

[pbandy1]

I feel like you go for it there with 1 timeout left.

 

[Smarge]

and that's why you go for it. Game over.

 

[GoBirds]

Hahaha what a joke. Really felt bad for Texans until thst gutless punt. 

 

[belljr]

Wow

 

[Porkchop Express]

Good call there Bill.

 

[ffldrew]

The Raiders aren't the Colts obviously

 

[Skoo]

It's not like it was 4th and 17 either....

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Good call there Bill.

percentages

 

[shadyridr]

I feel like you go for it there with 1 timeout left.

Duh gutless

 

[belljr]

Please no more points

 

[The Duff Man]

What a moron. Don't challenge the first spot. Don't kick the FG to take a late lead, then don't go for it on 4th just now. 

The refs botched this again, but he sure didn't help his team. 

 

[Smack Tripper]

why does Obrien go for it deep in Oakland territory and tied  and he punts in that spot?  Did he just see how his D performed when they were pinned?

 

[The Duff Man]

Give the Raiders credit though for calling that play and executing it. 

 

[ShamrockPride]

Wow Steve, so clearly with the tongue of a gringo...

 

[Smack Tripper]

Charlie Strong is not the worst coach in the state

 

[renesauz]

Big holding call....saves Houston 40 seconds

 

[Porkchop Express]

And the penalty stops the clock.

 

[Arodin]

Big call here...I agree, go for it and put the game away.

 

[renesauz]

silly penalty Vince, but meaningless in the end

 

[belljr]

Yes

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Good win NFL media and refs

 

[ffldrew]

Side Judge name the Gruden Grinder for tonights game.

 

[GregR]

I try to take bad calls in stride, every game has a few. But Jesus it felt like this game was a screw job.

O'brien with some stupid decisions not helping.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

I try to take bad calls in stride, every game has a few. But Jesus it felt like this game was a screw job.

Hey, they kept it competitive

 

[The Duff Man]

According to pro football reference win % calculator, that one call swung the odds 20% in favour of the Raiders. 

These calls happen every week (last Monday also) but we are the morons who keep watching and spending money on a league that allows refs to sway games this much.
