I felt the refs were pretty average for the early games. But the late games are completely different, clearly replacement refs. In the Seahawks-Cardinals game you can see both coaches doing nothing but lobbying the refs.
They just the wrong call in the SF-GB game. They called Roughing the Passer when it wasn't, but missed the Defensive Pass Interference call.
Ended up the same, but still, this is painful to watch.
TD Moss.
Randy Moss!
David Akers kicks a record-tying 63-yard field goal, with the help of a bounce off the crossbar.
Coolest kick I've ever seen.
David Akers... FROM LOUISVILLE!
Vernon Davis! Woohoo.
Would have hated to leave points on the field after Smith missed Crabtree on 2nd down.
bullsh*t. How many f*cking flags are going GB's way today? And now they pick one up for them.
These refs are such a joke. NFL needs to get on the phone and call up the regular refs fast.
The scores this week are truly straight out of Madden.
Happy now, Stele?
Woo! 49ers D and Gore answers.
No flag for Alex getting hit while sliding?
EDIT: Oh man. INT would have sealed it.
HUUUUUGE day for the Bucs' rookies.
HUUUUUUUUGE day for the Panthers.
By "huge," I mean "gift wrapping a game for the Bucs." Blech.
YEAH! Go Niners!

Foo. That wasn't a gift wrap game; Tampa kicked Carolina's butt fair and square. Tampa's d-line lived in Carolina's backfield (Gerald McCoy was a monster), Freeman was dink-and-dunk efficient, Martin got just enough yards when he needed to, and Ronde was just plain Ronde. Give us some credit, that was a solid, legitimate win.
Extra timeout. Smart move on the replacement refs.
Milkman, I wore my new Bucs hat today. 1-0 with the hat. You're welcome.
Doug Martin looked great. Really wishing the Lions traded up to get him at the end of round 1 like they did Best.
Is Randy Moss actually running routes? He'll do that for you for about 9 months.
Oh, and Ronde Barber? 200 straight starts, got a pick and an INT
Ooh a pick AND an interception!

IN MY LANGUAGE WE CALL A SACK A PICK SO STOP OPPRESSING ME.
HUUUUUGE day for the Bucs' rookies. Martin didn't have a great average, but he killed the clock when he needed to, made a couple big first downs, had a great catch, and showed he could block when he needed to. Awesome. Mark Barron utterly hammered Steve Smith on one play, plus tipped another ball that got interception. Lavonte David was everywhere.
Oh, and Ronde Barber? 200 straight starts, got a pick sack and an INT, and would have scooped up a fumble and run it in for a TD had he not gotten bumped by a Bucs defensive lineman.
Whooo! 80 Yards, 12 plays, no huddle.
Welcome back Mr. Manning!
Manning doesn't look like he has lost much...

If anything, he's hurt his defense by scoring too fast.
