Roughing the passer
It could be the last straw for me. I’ve been slowly watchng less and less of the NFL.
This kind of BS is going to drive me further away.
They're not calling holding on GB line. It's absolutely ridiculous!

ducking bullshit call. Roughing the passer? Just put flags on the QBs and be done with it.

It's no longer tackle football. It's something else and I don't care for it much.
If only we would've won, it would've been AWESOME for the Packers to lose- in part- due to the "Rodgers Rule".
Damn kicker.

In all fairness he roughing call on steroid boy was BS also. Almost identical hits. The NFL is becoming the no fun league

The NFL is becoming the no fun leagueSame call and both teams were screwed by the refs (and the rule and the lack of understanding wtf the rule is) but like I said in the chat room..... it cost them a win. I was afraid some team was going to get screwed out of a win and it would be the Vikings. Game over if the refs don't call the Packers on that play and they ended up giving us a tie.
So the refs screwed both teams with a bullshit roughing call and the game ends in a tie. Coincidence? WWE anyone?
I said when Matthews hit Cousins that it shouldn't have been a flag even if it helps us I don't want it. Duck that rule.

The ironic thing about those two hits is this. If Im not mistaken the rule states a defender cannot drive the QB to the ground or land on them with all their weight. Its called the Erin rule. The cheeseheads bitched about it after Barrs hit on Erin and now its only fitting that they are the first ones to get screwed out of a win by the rule they so wanted.
I believe the Cousins Matthews call was because Matthews drove his shoulder into Cousins.
I believe the 2 roughing the passer calls on the Vikings (one last week, one this week) were because the defenders ass went up in the air while the shoulders went down driving into the quarterback.
I could be wrong, jmo
Can someone view the Thieland touch down. I thought I saw in one view that Cousins was "roughed" after he threw that ball. I saw it in the post game but they didn't replay that angle or view.

It's sickening at this point to see the horrid reffing. Do they really want to make the game unbearable to watch...because of a single player?
