Holy hell.

Not insignificant, that's for sure. Maybe the inlayed article about referee nutrition had a big role in their inability to do their job. Get those zebras their fresh fruit and energy bars before the game!!

The league lets teams know about missed calls every week. This isn't the first time that a team we played leaked the information to the media. We never get to find out what the NFL said about calls/missed calls that went AGAINST GB because they don't let that information out even if they lost and are butthurt over it.

Good. The Illuminati are on our side this year. After the last two playoff exits, I can finally exhale.

Well another call they missed was on a 4th and 3 at the 7:29.

Gunter was picked by a WR 4 yards downfield and the ball was 5 yards away from Robinson who caught it for a 1st. Surely down 27-20 at midfield w/ a 4th and 13 JAx punts instead of converting and getting a FG. This also would have given GB another possession; if Jax had scored a TD to go ahead on last drive.

Hope Jax quits their bitchin' and whinin' by the time they play Minny.

Exactly. I seriously doubt that the refs only missed calls that favored GB. And then once you start down the path pretending to be able to determine what would have happened if the call was made is futile.

Why? I don't care if they bitch all year long. It won't change anything.

The next question is how many calls are missed in an average game? I have no clue, but I would randomly guess that it's about 25 (so lets say 12.5 per team if it's split even) ... so the Packers got 16 that the NFL admitted, which might be at a higher standard... of course it might be at a lower standard too)



Anyways so the the Packers got a little bit more than normal in this game. I'm sure the Jags got some too as their guys were pushing a bit down field as well.


I think WR Allen Robinson, got it right when he basically suggested that if the refs are playing the rules loose, then they need to up their physical play to match playing how the refs are calling the game. And that's been one of my biggest complained about the Packers WRs playing the Seahawks DBs... the Packers are always looking for the calls... when the refs stop giving them, you got to say screw it and step up by matching physical play with physical play.

Though, I will say, I think TE Cook got away with one with that late PI call against the Jags, I think he was looking for the PI call more than catching the ball and sold it well and got it. Though I think one of their players seemed to do that at one point as well... I'm not a big fan of that kind of stuff... but it is a part of the game.

I'm still upset that in the 2009 playoffs, Larry Fitzgerald got away with tripping Woodson on purpose... which Fitz did on both of his touchdowns. To Fitz credit, the first one looks like it could of been a mistake... but the second one was clear as day, he purposely tripped/pushed Woodson to put him on the ground while downfield. But Fitz is considered one of the greatest for a reason... he does all of the little things a WR needs to do (both legal and questionable) to get the job done and maximum his potential.
