This officiating crew needs to be fired immediately
Omfg...total incompetence
if Corrente is a part of a numerous challneged bad calls. why is calling this vital nationwide game?
Totally agree, officiating was horrible today. Buck is probably flying to have dinner with Erin and Clay after the game.
This game is nowhere as close if the refs call it accurately...
Kudos to my brother in law for blocking my kick !
The half cooked turkey was being punted out the patio doors when he made the play of the day.
Pretty sad when the third man in the booth is now an official apologist
&
& finally
Aikman has suffered numerous concussions...
what's Bucks excuse ??
Whew
Vikings & Fans earned that one !
thank you thank you thank you
The no call on Diggs was arguable the worst non PI call ive seen in YEARS....
Why would the league fire the refs for following orders the last three games the refs had been byond bad
@"OBM" said: The no call on Diggs was arguable the worst non PI call ive seen in YEARS....Yes sir. I mean I can live with the two PI calls they called on us to give Detroit an opportunity to score before half... But to call those and then NOT call the OBVIOUS PI on Diggs???
C'mon man...
And then I love every other replay of our guys catching passes... With a Lion defender DRAPED all over them... Makes you say Hmmmm....
@"OBM" said: The no call on Diggs was arguable the worst non PI call ive seen in YEARS....Agreed! Plus the "taunting" on Keenum?????
@"Wetlander" said: And then I love every other replay of our guys catching passes... With a Lion defender DRAPED all over them... Makes you say Hmmmm....There was a point where Aikman was mentioning that the Lions were playing Thielen physically, and they showed a replay and he was getting mugged.
I felt like that non-call on the deep throw to Diggs was MAJOR, possibly the worst officiating decision as it turned the game around, nearly disastrously. Poor calls after that exacerbated the anger, but I sardonically said to the room at the time that not getting that PI call that would have set them up in a good spot to go up by three touchdowns was going to turn into a comeback run for Detroit. Sure enough the Lions scored a pretty quick 10 points. Following that play the Vikings had to punt a couple plays later and struggled to punt results the following two drives. Luckily today they were able to fight and overcome, but with the proper PI call on that play I think the Vikings would have kept momentum, a considerable lead, and we would have had a stress free second half.
It is hard enough to win games in the NFL, you shouldn't have to beat the officials too.
They didn't like that the score was getting lopsided so they felt the need to interfere.
On the “taunting” by Keenum, why did they not call excessive celebration on the Lions? Isn’t it still illegal to do group celebrations on non-TD plays?

What'd he do?@"OBM" said: The no call on Diggs was arguable the worst non PI call ive seen in YEARS.... Agreed! Plus the "taunting" on Keenum?????

I will have to rewatch but that facemask on Kendricks looked weak. And of course that lack of pass interference on Diggs was insane. They overcame the refs.
@"Vikergirl" said:The facemask was a super weak call. His wand lightly grazed the facemask. 8 years ago it would have been one of the five yard variety, but that rule was eliminated and now to get a penalty it has to be a full grasp or push, not just incidental contact.@"Max" said: On the “taunting” by Keenum, why did they not call excessive celebration on the Lions?
