my question to you and anyone else. Is there an "acceptable human error quotient" that needs be implemented towards our attitudes regarding officiating?

 

I'm asking because someone here will have a well thought out opinion and answer.

 

Humans will never be perfect nor will their "vision" be it skewed or not, bad angle etc

 

I'm hopeful to come up with a formula that I can apply for MYSELF to not allow these crap calls to steal my joy in a game I love.

 

There has got to be some way. we as a species  are growing in knowledge every day. right?

 

True perfection has to be imperfect muppy. I know that that sounds foolish but it's true.

Of course, and it’s not hard to fathom why. Difference is, I have facts to support my takes. The other side can only point to the occasional call or missed call, which can be done for any team. But the microscope isn’t pointed toward other teams, is it?

 

Um…if one literally thought that NFL games were scripted and rigged, and it enraged them to the point of continual blowups…why would that person continue to religiously support and fork over money for a “fake” and illegitimate product? That’s no different than following WWE. Actually worse, because people only follow WWE for the entertainment value of goofy promotions and trash talk.

The longer we keep you here, the worse your life is.  This is great

KC had 131 return yds, plus 20ish yds subtracted on an intentional safety. 

 

Both teams had 9 possessions, but only 6 of KC's were actually "drives." One was the safety, another was a kneel-down at the end of the 1st half, and the first possession started at the 13 after the long kick return. 

 

So the Chiefs basically scored 3.3 points per drive and averaged around 40 yds per drive. Texans averaged 1.5 points per drive and slightly over 40 yds per drive.

And there it is…rules expert Anderson explains that both were called correctly. 
 

The rules might suck, but calling it by the books isn’t evidence of a fix or favoritism.

Well, that depends, doesn't it?

 

Are you calling it by the books for both teams?
