Pot meet Kettle. Of all the players who should not complain about officiating.

They lose one game in like 4 years on officiating not going their way and they cry like this. Ridiculous.

I'm sympathetic to complaints of officiating in this league. I really am. If you are a team that's routinely lost games on late, bad calls or the like then ok...but this is a team that's benefited over and over and over and over from bad calls or no calls. And they cry.
 
He's not wrong. The officials missed at leas one pick call and missed Hightower stepping out of bounds. We'd be going nuts if the Saints had been on the receiving end of those calls.
 
Yea I have no sympathy for it because they're the beneficiaries of poor officiating most of the time but he's not wrong. It's league wide though. I've seen some embarrassing calls today.
 
Hope you enjoyed chasing around Michael Thomas today! He embarrassed you.
 
Stinks when the refs decide to call a close game... Guess he wasnt' talking about last weeks game when he mugged Jones for the win.:jpshakehead:

We have been on the wrong end of some bad calls this year that's helped cost us potential wins. Oakland game comes to mind right off. It's just how it goes. Sometimes works for you sometimes not.
 
Richard Sherman complaining about officiating is like Terrell Owens complaining that wide receivers are too emotional or like Dallas fans complaining about another team getting too much media coverage.
