Tired of reading a stupid argument with Konjo...

Does anyone else think the officials are told to officiate the games in a way that keeps the score close? I would like to see the numbers on the percentage of flags that are thrown on the team with a 10+ point lead as compared to a team trailing by 10+ points. It seems to me the team chasing always gets the close calls and less penalties thrown against them. This could contribute to so many big deficit comebacks in the league anymore.

It's like it's Mario Kart at the player that is in last always got the coolest shooters.

I think that group of officials yesterday were picky. They called it tight both ways. Was it annoying? Yes. Were they the correct calls? Maybe and maybe not. But did they call it even both ways? Yes they did.

But you know there it was getting to be annoying when phil simms is making the comment its probably on the defense because they looked at the guy wrong.

Best analogy ever.

There were so many flags thrown against the secondary in this game that it's no wonder the score was 51-34. They made it impossible to play defense.

The most under looked thing from the last two games is that Mike Adams has started at right tackle and played extremely well. Maybe he is finally coming into what he was expected to be.
