One-sided referees calling non-existent penalties...

is making the NFL almost unwatchable.

I wonder how many viewers they lost permanently with tonight's biased officiating?

Craziest shat I've ever seen.
Seriously can't stand the NFL right now.
Maybe it is going to decline.

Some pretty questionable third down calls to extend drives, other ticky tack ones that certainly weren't called for the Hawks on offense. Stanton was terrible and this allowed them to stay in the game.

The first 3 quarters of this game had my blood boiling, NFL trying to manipulate the score is so bullshit. Dont respond with the dumb-ass " hawks are the most penalized" bulllshit, did you watch the (mod edit for language) game? Yes, the hawks sucked on O, but the targeting of penalties was obviously strategic.

I only got to watch bits an pieces but almost every time there were some terrible penalty calls. Did we at least get any for us? Or at least not called on us?

I havent seen a drive(their first TD) extended like that in a long time by so many ticky tack calls. Was really hard to watch.

I mean that has to be obvious some home cooking was going on, even the casual fans watching, right?

Most of the penalties were correct. Bothered me more that it didn't seem like they called them on Arizona when they did the same.

First possession major face mask on RW
Push in the back on the TD by Arizona
One PI on Griffin was wrong

Agreed on all of these, sir. That's how I saw them too.

You need to include the Non calls on the other side as well, we were ticky tacked to death and yet they could jersey grab and tackle without a flag.

^i didn't list them all but the first two were examples of that. Not sure I understand as I also stated that my concern was that it was one-sided

Do the officials have no accountability at all. Why do they not face fines for blatant garbage calls and other serious bad calls..??.Seems like they are held to no standards at all...Absolutely pathetic...!!! ukeface:

when the player hit russ with the crown of his helmet and wasn't warned or ejected I was done

The amount of penalties make the NFL unwatchable. And everything is too damn inconsistent. It’s just tiresome. They are killing this league with this crap.

I watch an embarrassing amount of NFL football. In a lot of games, refs make calls, or ignore penalties, that just happen to make for closer, more exciting, games.

Teams that have no business playing down to the wire, somehow become great opponents who pull off magical victories or fall just short

Just curious, when a Seahawk player (can't recall who) hit Kirk Cousins the same way last week, did you want him ejected too?

I was over at my Pops house watching the game tonight. I told him any just casual fan would turn off the tv due to the penalties. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I thought last Sunday was bad, but this Officiating crew SUCKED BUTT tonight.
It's an insult to trot out these NFL Clowns on National TV.
They should be wearing paper bags over their heads....What an EMBARASSMENT.

I felt it was going to be a bad night when the no call in the first Quarter happened in the end zone. Obvious contact before the ball got there by a DB that did not even pretend to look for the ball.

That was one of the few I saw. For such an important play can't believe the ref was not looking. It was obvious to everyone else.

those hands to the face penalties on Coleman were a complete joke. and yes the pass interference penalties were absurd. Seattle got called everytime for the same physicality that Arizona was doing but yet I don't think got called once. if your going to be ticky tack at least be consistent for both team. id rather just have the no calls for both teams unless the penalties are egregious to keep the flow of the game going.

but watching this I almost felt like the refs knew they could get away with overly penalizing Seattle just because it fit the narrative of most penalized team in the league and no one would notice it in the box score when trying to keep the game close.
