Matt_In_NH Posted November 25, 2018 Posted November 25, 2018 I dont know if anyone else felt this way but this was an awful game to watch, constant penalties, a lot of them questionable. I think penalties have been trending down but this game brought the average up a lot, it was horrendous to watch. Any time something happened, there was a 75% chance of a flag. 3 1
BillsFan130 Posted November 25, 2018 Posted November 25, 2018 Typical Walt Coleman game. Just completely kills the flow of the game 14
Big Turk Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Walt Coleman lost control of this game somewhere in the 2nd quarter and never really got it back
RaoulDuke79 Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 (edited) I don't care what team you were rooting for, I think we can all agree the officiating was terrible and detracted from the game. Edited November 26, 2018 by RaoulDuke79 3
TC in St. Louis Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Two huge defensive holding calls gave the Jags first downs when they didn't deserve it. The first one, on Edmunds, was really nothing at all and the pass rush forced Bortles to throw a horrible pass far away from Edmunds. The second one was on a DB, ticky tack call, and the pass rush forced a throw that was lousy and incomplete. At one point the Jags went from the 20 to midfield without doing anything at all. 3 3
NickelCity Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Truly awful. Good friend is from Jacksonville and we were both appalled with the refereeing.
Jerome007 Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 I at the same time found the refs awful, like the two TDs that weren't, the fumble that wasn't, way too long discussions before stating the penalty. But they did call the right penalties except for a few. 2
NewEra Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Was a packers fan watching the game with me. Never met him before. I told him that every “close call”, the refs would be in favor of the jags and that we’d need the indisputable evidence to overturn. That was the case the entire game. Dude was in awe of how that happened. He’s a bills fan now. He asked me if we had a song......his mind was blown when we scored. Moondoggies Las Vegas, great place to experience a Bills game . 2
billsfan_34 Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 By far the worst crew in the league- it was awful today. 2

I think its fair to say both teams benefited and were hurt by the officiating at different times. 1
Scott7975 Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Those guys are too freaking old to ref a game. Coleman has always been my most hated ref. That whole crew needs to retire. 1
H2o Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 There were also a couple of ghost calls when we had made a good play on offense that had me yelling at the TV. Hope we don't see the Medicare Crew again this year at any point.
Gray Beard Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Defensive holding results in an automatic first down. That penalty can get called on practically every play. And there were some particularly tricky-tack ones called against the Bills. On the other hand, the penalties on the Bills O-line seemed to be generally legitimate. That’s an area of improvement that McClappy needs to emphasize. 1

CDogg20 Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 Walt Coleman should not be a ref...even at peewee level

frostbitmic Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 This officiating crew should be embarrassed by the job they did today and the NFL should be embarrassed for putting them out there. Truly abysmal. 1
xsoldier54 Posted November 26, 2018 Posted November 26, 2018 I looked it up. They called more than twice the average for penalties in an NFL game. Ridiculously bad officiating. 1
