Did you see that last play? Holy ****!!!!!! That was a blatant interception by Jennings, on top of the pass interference by Tate shoving Shields down. Yes, I know they never call OPI, but D***!
Did the refs forget who was the offense? There is going to be a a huge ugly battle tomorrow. I can't wait to start seeing the Tweets on this...

These replacement officials just don't have what it takes to officiate over NFL games. I'm not pro-union (big surprise) but if the NFL is going to have a fairly officiated season they need officials that can call a fair game.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

The Pack did get robbed, but that high powered offense should have scored more against Seattle. The NFL MVP losiing to a rookie QB.
The ref lockout? Call me cycnical but the fans and commentators are always bitching about officiating. But I wonder if this is just a scheme to increase the drama and ratings. It sure is getting a lot of comment on even non sports stations.
The NFL caves in to the real refs in week 10, then the controversy will be, the real refs are rusty and not up to speed, or haven't been keeping up on the new rules since they didn't get pre-season games to practice on.

Photo I know this is hard but I am not convinced it was an interception. That was a really hard call to make. No one really had possession and because the seahawk was under the ball I think that is why it went their way. I can't imagine another call so close ever in my whole life of watching football. It is too bad that had to happen with replacement officials because the regular refs would have had difficulties with that call. Craziest play I have ever seen ever.
The rules clearly state that if two players have joint possession that it goes to the offensive player, BUT if one player clearly has possession and a second player subsequently gains possession, it goes to the player who first had possession - I've watched that video at least a dozen times, it was absolutely intercepted. There was no joint possession, Tate wrestled it away later, after MD was down.
Photo, you are right, it's 1-1-WTF a*******
