@Brack actually, they have addressed that in the rules. Faking a slide still counts as a slide. Someone successfully did it once and they immediately fixed that loophole
I think most would agree that you shouldn't be able to hit a quarterback in the head. Going low is purely from Tom Brady's knee injury. Late hits are illegal for a reason. But now, they seem to be saying you must tackle the QB in the gentlest way possible, and even then they will still flag it. QB ducks his head into the 2 inch zone you are allowed to hit? Too bad. Still a penalty. The only way to fix this is to make it reviewable, since it's obvious the officials can't see two plays the same way.
What a great week for the refs. Almost all of these were correct, or at least reasonable calls. Not nearly as many blatant mistakes as previous videos.
They are but you are watching on TV with dozen camera angles and slo-mo replays. Refs see everything only once, from one angle, reffing the best athletes in the world and the speed on field is ridiculous.
@Maria Gabryelle Cavs I can safely say that Scott Novak might be looking for another job after this season, especially after that horrible roughing the passer penalty on Sunday night
There were no Refs on that Miami and Lions game apparently. There was also an obvious touchdown that was overturned and a blatant offsides by the Lions near the goal line too.
For the 11:59 clip, the taunting call was justified. The defender, immediately after the tackle, stood over the runner and taunted. The official's flag should have been thrown immediately, but he was apparently going to let it go if it hadn't continued.
Suprised you didn't have the refs calling a too many men men on the field penalty around 5 minutes after it happened in the Vikings-Cardinals game and the play-clock on the next play had already hit zero.
there's a HUGE difference between a bad call and a call made based on a rule you don't agree with - most of these were the officials making a call based on the rules they are tasked with enforcing. also - all fouls are not seen if they were seen and called there would be holding (or facemask) on every play and the games would be incredibly boring
You gotta put the roughing the passer on the interception on the cowboys game. Or you can put the 10 holds on micah parsons every game. You'll have a free clips of micah getting held every game lol
they do that man then they gotta call Diggs for all those holds in the secondary lmao. and all the holding old man Peter's doing over there for your o-line.
Some of these aren't so bad this week. They're definitely getting better and better. The first couple weeks were just absolutely garbage. I mean gonna be shit calls regardless but atleast it's no a blind bat fest like a few weeks ago.
5:18 that actually was a good call because if the defense delays the ball and grabs it and doesn’t let the ref get it in time then that’s what it means
If defenders can't lean in to tackle head first or make head contact then the runner shouldn't be able to lean with their head either. That is how to have your strongest center of gravity, which makes it the most difficult to tackle: when the offense can lead with their head and the defence has to try to avoid it Especially when they do a Mac Jones flop into the defender. That was 100% head contact initiated by Jones, Mosley was just trying to stop the first down
Want to protect defenseless receivers make it illegal for them to duck during the catch. Also want to protect runners make it illegal to duck during a tackle as well.
9:00 min no that was a damn good call. In the rule book you cant hit in the helmet and he did. So who ever made this video everything else is facts except 9:00 in he most definitely deserved a penalty!
11:55 is a good hit. QB was a runner, guy was already commiting to the hit and tried pulling up. Defender more rolls off him than anything. Goff's head doesn't even touch the turf. Good no call.
What's controversial about the obvious call at 8.55. I mean, sorry the WRs smaller than you but you still can't go helmet to helmet. Also, it was on a second down, and he caught the ball anyway. lol
how do tackle someone who immediately ducks and leads with their head as soon as contact happens..? asking for a friend. its impossible to play defense in the nfl now
If you are talking Jets NE, that should’ve been a flag on Jones if I understand correctly. The runner isn’t allowed to do that. The 49ers Rams one was probably the right call because the receiver had just caught the ball
Referees definitely have a tough job! They get new rules every year! That being said, the refs suck this year! They are missing so many calls and many cases not calling blatant fouls! I would normally say consistency would help but, these guys evidently don't know how to spell consistency much less provide it! Simply said, the refs suck this year!
Keep in mind there is a huge decline is refs I’ve been doing high school reffing for 5 years now and every year we are 20-40 guys less than last year. It’s shitty job.
Idk about the 49ers vs rams at 9:00. Dude clearly led with his helmet. Good call. Same with the jets and ne, that was warranted. Hitting the head with the head or shoulder is gonna draw a flag every single time, why would they be surprised lmao 🤣
It’s a flag but on the runner. He’s not supposed to lead with his helmet. This stops players from abusing the rule and getting themselves into dangerous situations trying to abuse it.
3:00 is a good no call. The ball was way behind Pierce and uncatchable. Did Fuller grab Pierce? Absolutely, but the ball was so far behind him that it did not matter because he never would have been able to catch it. 3:27 the ball is not even in frame it is so far away, so, as much as I hate NFL officials sometimes, they made the right decision to not call PI or holding here.
It’s all an illusion … Green screened like that villain in Spider-Man (Mysterio) 😂 That was weird maybe just bounced off guy so fast and at the angle we saw made it look glitchy
10:50 is not a bad call. He was clearly going down. However, the NFL needs to change the rule a bit. QBs need to to start sliding feet first or get laid out.
Bad take. He was trying to fall forward to get more yards. The defender can't be expected to just give up a first down, when a runner tries to fall head first.
I can't wrap my head around how the refs are so unbelievably bad this year. It's almost as bad as the replacement ref season. Such BS that the NFL just looks the other way while the refs ruin the game.
They need to get rid of the referees on the field and start calling calls from the cameras because the cameras pick up all angles and see things the referees can't see or choose not to see which I think is generally the case... Then football would be played on the merits of the players rather than on the ignorance of the referees!!!! It might take longer but that way we just get to enjoy football longer 😁😎
Interesting theory’ as Technology continues to get better I could see something like that in say 20 years’ Could u imagine drones as refs programmed with Ai to quickly analyze what happened then light up red 🤣
Starting to notice a trend of refs giving way more roughing the passer calls to white QBs. Trevor Lawrence flops any time a DL breathes on him ("ruffling the jersey, not roughing the passer"), Daniel Jones baits defensive penalties at his own risk on purpose, and anyone who touches the geriatric Tom Brady is instantly flagged... But Tua takes a head shot in the pocket - no flag. Russell Wilson gets facemask tackled - no flag. Jacoby Brissett takes hard hits in the pocket without flags all the time. Lamar Jackson has had ONE roughing the passer call go his way in 4 seasons. There's a serious issue with refs treating non-white QBs like runningbacks.
Where is he supposed to hit him? Jones went down leading with his head. He's a runner at that point and the contact to the head there is legal. That play only gets a flag because it's a QB running, but he was an established runner at that point and he wasn't giving himself up.
The nfl should watch these videos..
Love how they call Andy Dalton’s number on the special teams for a penalty 😭😭
And the penalty against the Seattle mariners 😭
How should you tackle someone who ducks and leads with his head?
@Brack actually, they have addressed that in the rules. Faking a slide still counts as a slide. Someone successfully did it once and they immediately fixed that loophole

Remember what curry did when giannis ran towards him on the break? They need to do just that
I hate it when the Seattle Mariners coaching staff interferes.
Really???
How do you even mess that up. That’s just sad
This week are more like 50-50 and funny calls. Seemed pretty normal to me
Yeah, I actually quit watching about halfway through the video because I didn't see any really really egregious calls.
…. No grounding … #84 was in the stadium …
What a great week for the refs. Almost all of these were correct, or at least reasonable calls. Not nearly as many blatant mistakes as previous videos.
You know, sometimes I wonder if the refs are watching the same games we are...
@P R and also a lot of those calls are 50/50. They land in this video no matter what they call
They are but you are watching on TV with dozen camera angles and slo-mo replays. Refs see everything only once, from one angle, reffing the best athletes in the world and the speed on field is ridiculous.
Either they're cross-eyed, or they have the eyes of a bat.
4:48 - "Sideline Interference, the coaching staff of the Seattle Mariners was in the restricted area." 😂
You gotta love it.
Sometimes the refs don't know what they are doing and it is really funny to see that!
I'm surprised the non call on Kirk's grounding wasn't turned to a roughing the passer!
Same
That was my first thought, “ this better not be roughing the passer “
3:58 Uh Scott, Andy Dalton doesn't play special teams. These refs just keep getting dumber with these bad calls, don't they?
@Milwaukeeroadfan 2001 I agree.
@Maria Gabryelle Cavs
I can safely say that Scott Novak might be looking for another job after this season, especially after that horrible roughing the passer penalty on Sunday night
Yes
How do you turn a delay of game into a pass interference call?
Love the mariners coaching staff getting a penalty
Taylor Rapp hit might be one of the most textbook tackles i’ve seen a db make. These refs have gotta understand we are playin tackle football here😭
Why I stopped watching nfl just boring to me now😅
It's helmet to helmet. Nothing textbook about it.
Anyone notice how Charles Davis feel the need to defend the refs all the time
It's the ONLY job in America where you can be blind AND stupid and still keep your job!! Way to go, Refs!!
It really feels like the refs have made ton of shit calls this year almost more than normal
There were no Refs on that Miami and Lions game apparently. There was also an obvious touchdown that was overturned and a blatant offsides by the Lions near the goal line too.
For the 11:59 clip, the taunting call was justified. The defender, immediately after the tackle, stood over the runner and taunted. The official's flag should have been thrown immediately, but he was apparently going to let it go if it hadn't continued.

also - all fouls are not seen if they were seen and called there would be holding (or facemask) on every play and the games would be incredibly boring
Holding and pass interference have been taken out of the rule book apparently
I don't know what's funny, the look on Pete Caroll's face when he celebrated then got a penalty or the offical called Seattle Seahawks Mariners
4:40 Pete aint listen to his Get Back Coach
You gotta put the roughing the passer on the interception on the cowboys game. Or you can put the 10 holds on micah parsons every game. You'll have a free clips of micah getting held every game lol
@Wowwzer 1 Thanks
they do that man then they gotta call Diggs for all those holds in the secondary lmao. and all the holding old man Peter's doing over there for your o-line.
@NineteenEightyNine you could’ve Atleast tried with your insult
@NineteenEightyNine Okay, seriously, this has to stop. You’re not funny
Don’t forget the fumble they overturned.
Some of these aren't so bad this week. They're definitely getting better and better. The first couple weeks were just absolutely garbage.
I mean gonna be shit calls regardless but atleast it's no a blind bat fest like a few weeks ago.
@JIKwood I'd say this week was an outlier. It's too soon to call it a trend
@Kuttispielt but it's better to have more debatable and less obviously bad cause that means they're getting better
Some of them were definitely debatable. More than in previous weeks.
These are all Las Vegas gambling calls. I would love to see a game when the NY officials "explain" a call on TV, they are called out for this bs.
I know you mostly do nfl but can you put up the Alabama v Tennessee 3rd quarter?
So funny he called jabrill peppers an Ohio state stand out
They need to fire all the refs and give some younger ones a chance because this is getting outta control
The NFL ought to suspend officials who make consistently bad calls
Yesterday when JJ catch the ball number 26 was holding him hitting him hit him hit his head no foul I was like what the heck WHAT
Refs have been missing an awful lot of facemasks this year. Almost like they are ignoring it.
Okay did I mishear on the Broncos taunting “penalty” that you could get ejected for it?
5:18 that actually was a good call because if the defense delays the ball and grabs it and doesn’t let the ref get it in time then that’s what it means
That's not what happened
A QB can throw the bal 30 yards out of bounds but they never think of calling that as grounding
14s Andy Dalton ‼️😂😂😂😂😂😂
First clip was 100% incidental contact. If the dB is running where the ball is he doesn't have to move to let the receiver get to it.
So how many gold camos do you think Kyler has?
The officials carry a 12-sided die like from Dungeons and Dragons, and they roll it to determine what penalty they should call.
Some of the games were fixed, there is no hell the world they would be that blind!!!
I just don’t like the penalty for staring at a player and I think that’s agreed by most fans and players as well
Why didn't you show the delay of game against the eagles?
If defenders can't lean in to tackle head first or make head contact then the runner shouldn't be able to lean with their head either. That is how to have your strongest center of gravity, which makes it the most difficult to tackle: when the offense can lead with their head and the defence has to try to avoid it
Especially when they do a Mac Jones flop into the defender. That was 100% head contact initiated by Jones, Mosley was just trying to stop the first down
If you tackle Brady it's a penalty regardless
The thumbnail made me think the ref was doing the Macarena.
Want to protect defenseless receivers make it illegal for them to duck during the catch. Also want to protect runners make it illegal to duck during a tackle as well.
If the tackler drops his head he’s going to get called every time…it’s not hard
Ehhh… this week wasn’t as egregious as past weeks
9:00 min no that was a damn good call. In the rule book you cant hit in the helmet and he did. So who ever made this video everything else is facts except 9:00 in he most definitely deserved a penalty!
The missed call on Buffalo’s touchdown against GB was as bad as it gets. Like wtf are you looking at?
Why is 9:10 a bad call?
So the helmet to helmet contact on the rams is wrong but when we look at the rams wrong we get an unsportsmanlike conduct gotta love the NFL
The reffs should be fined every time they miss a call or make a bad call,and they should have an overrule judge that's watching from the booth
11:55 is a good hit. QB was a runner, guy was already commiting to the hit and tried pulling up. Defender more rolls off him than anything. Goff's head doesn't even touch the turf. Good no call.
The NFL: we protect QBs (except for Wilson, Carr, and Fields)
Kirk cousins is a known intentional grounder..
If refs receive more than the Federal minimum wage, they are overpaid.
What's controversial about the obvious call at 8.55. I mean, sorry the WRs smaller than you but you still can't go helmet to helmet. Also, it was on a second down, and he caught the ball anyway. lol
Wouldn't have made a difference for Atlanta. Even if Bird caught the ball it would have taken 3s off the clock and game would be over
Ok some of these are close, but not terrible calls.
Some are bad yes…but if this is the worst you got? They doin’ pretty well.
8:35 Seems like a good call to me. initial contact is helmet to helmet, and is definitely dangerous.
Seems like a miami thing to get a flag for
how do tackle someone who immediately ducks and leads with their head as soon as contact happens..? asking for a friend. its impossible to play defense in the nfl now
If you are talking Jets NE, that should’ve been a flag on Jones if I understand correctly. The runner isn’t allowed to do that. The 49ers Rams one was probably the right call because the receiver had just caught the ball

Keep in mind there is a huge decline is refs I’ve been doing high school reffing for 5 years now and every year we are 20-40 guys less than last year. It’s shitty job.
They just to turn this game into flag football. It's gotten so bad that if you sneeze on someone you get a penalty.
Idk about the 49ers vs rams at 9:00. Dude clearly led with his helmet. Good call. Same with the jets and ne, that was warranted. Hitting the head with the head or shoulder is gonna draw a flag every single time, why would they be surprised lmao 🤣
@Christian Salas oh jets and ne 100% agree
@robby49er talking Jets and NE
@Christian Salas the runner didn't lead with his helmet in the niners clip. The defender did. The runner was standing straight and deemed defenseless.
It’s a flag but on the runner. He’s not supposed to lead with his helmet. This stops players from abusing the rule and getting themselves into dangerous situations trying to abuse it.
@robby49er I saw that and had to add that too. Gotta still protect our players from unnecessary injuries.
we all know brady gets special treatment..u breathe on him wrong its a 15 yard plenty
Nah that first one should be a no call. Nobody wants a game to be decided on a penalty
Taunting and roughing the passer are two major game-changing rules that really need to be done away with
Didn't know the Mariners played in the NFL
3:00 is a good no call. The ball was way behind Pierce and uncatchable. Did Fuller grab Pierce? Absolutely, but the ball was so far behind him that it did not matter because he never would have been able to catch it. 3:27 the ball is not even in frame it is so far away, so, as much as I hate NFL officials sometimes, they made the right decision to not call PI or holding here.
7:16 why does the ball look like it glitches?
It’s all an illusion …
Green screened like that villain in Spider-Man (Mysterio) 😂
That was weird maybe just bounced off guy so fast and at the angle we saw made it look glitchy
Yeah that’s weird
10:50 is not a bad call. He was clearly going down. However, the NFL needs to change the rule a bit. QBs need to to start sliding feet first or get laid out.
Bad take. He was trying to fall forward to get more yards. The defender can't be expected to just give up a first down, when a runner tries to fall head first.
If I hear the term defenseless receiver one more time I might go insane. ITS FUCKING FOOTBALL
Taunting calls are stupid get rid of them
I can't wrap my head around how the refs are so unbelievably bad this year. It's almost as bad as the replacement ref season. Such BS that the NFL just looks the other way while the refs ruin the game.
So many stupid rules for nfl now days. Let these guys play
I heard Tom Brady was sacked once, thoughts and prayers🙌🙏🙏👐🙏🙏
Teh No Fun League should remove the Taunting and Excessive celebrating penalties. These are grown men!
The falcons are really getting cheaped out with the refs 😂😂😂
5:10 Did he just make that up….🤦🏾♂️
It’s not made up. He just didn’t say it correct. I’m sure he ment to say say the player was making a non football play and it just came out weird.
They need to get rid of the referees on the field and start calling calls from the cameras because the cameras pick up all angles and see things the referees can't see or choose not to see which I think is generally the case... Then football would be played on the merits of the players rather than on the ignorance of the referees!!!! It might take longer but that way we just get to enjoy football longer 😁😎

No wonder they make bad calls. Can't hurt someones feelings when they screw up.
Cry babys not football players. Mommy Help! He wants to tackle me.
Carolina Atlanta game was great but Byrd was fouled so hard
Can somebody please explain to me what happened in the first Eagles/Steelers clip? I didn’t understand what the ref even said the penalty was for.
The defense can't mimic the snap count to get the offense to move and false start.
@7:02 because it’s Tom Brady. The refs throw a flag anytime Brady is so much as touched. His wife was so sick of it she divorced him.
Hey they're doing better the refs have one less minute on the video this week
Whats the problem at 11:00? It looks like he only hit him in the head, why would that not be a flag?
Where is he supposed to hit him? Jones went down leading with his head. He's a runner at that point and the contact to the head there is legal. That play only gets a flag because it's a QB running, but he was an established runner at that point and he wasn't giving himself up.
Love your video
Why the hell do we call this professional football
Have you watch lower levels recently?
@Bessarion 1 facts
it has been a circus for a decade now.
Derek Carr isn't taking geriatric vitamins
That Mac Jones run just pisses me off
START FINING REFS
Sorry, but at this point they need to put flags on the QB and you are only allowed to rip the flag off to have him be down.
Qualifications to be a NFL referee. Must have fantastic imagination or hallucination or see things that aren't there and so forth yada yada yada.
