So about the refs tonight UPDATE: Rams game discussion on page 14

[Bookie Man]

Literally everyone in the world could see the false start on the 4th and 5 play. Except the ref who is 15 feet away. Makes no sense. 

[LABILLBACKER]

Just watched the replay of the last Rams drive. Absolutely unbelievable no call on the false start. But the most egregious miss was the illegal pick and hold on Kupp that easily frees up Nacua.  There isn't a more blatant blown call than this one.

Pick plays are now allowed haven’t you watched Inside the NBA? As long as the player is planted and not moving his legs it’s a legal pick.

It bugged me that they missed two obvious false starts that were big plays.  If they call this and its second and 15 does it change the game?  I don't know.  The Bills were about to get all the momentum back with a stop and the ball.   The False Start on the right tackle is as obvious as it gets, three bills players point it out and no flag.  Makes me  mental.

 

here is a quick gif of the false start.  How did Brady and the fox broadcast miss this?

On that play and the one at the end of the game in 4th and 5… the Bills Dlineman in this case Von… need to cross the line, make contact and force them to call the penalty.

We got some breaks as well.

[The Wiz]

I get it, it was a big missed called but Dawkins was jumping early all game and likely should have been flagged as well.

yes i know, every game is that way.  Holding can be called on every play.

 

But these pre snap obvious as day penalties being missed are real head scratchers.

It evened out. I was shocked to see Chiefs fans online complaining about the refs as much as they did - but when I thought about the game, there were definitely some bad calls that went our way.

The early drop step as the ball is being snapped seems to be allowed, what the rams got away with both times was definitely not that lol that 4th down false start was about as obvious as it gets

great.  Make the vids/gifs to point out dawkins false starts that weren't called that led to pivotal plays I guess.

 

I am simply pointing out pre snap penalties that are obvious not being called and the fact that this one bugged me.

I agree they are different plays but the refs weren't calling it either way was my point.

I agree it should’ve been called.

Idk that I’ve ever in my life seen an early rock like that not called a false start haha. Of course I can’t watch every game every week but that was absolutely egregious and in a whole other universe than the Jawaan Taylor early kickout 

 

to the point where I think we got some dpi makeup calls which could never undo the damage done by that missed false start of course

Jawaan Taylor is in a league of his own when it comes to moving early.

Oh yea for quantity but that style of play seems like it’s bending a rule that a lot of other guys are taking advantage of too.  That 4th down play was a plain old absolutely unquestionable false start that would’ve been massively consequential

Very true. Force their hand.

There were some tricky tack calls that went our way (and their way as well), but still borderline, at least. The blatant missed calls are much worse, in my opinion. It is just refs not paying attention.

Time to flush this game. We gots bigger fish to fry. . . . .
