Anyone get the feeling the real refs are paying these guys off? You can’t be this bad on accident. I know a high school ref could probably call a better game.

Saying it was the worse call EVER, would be a MAJOR understatement!! It’s one thing to get screwed ruff, but to get screwed by a ref is TOTALLY WRONG!! Let’s not forget the Offensive Pass Interference, that NO REF saw on the last play, either! What a total embarassment to the NFL and sport of football.

Why was Jennings trying to catch the ball?

When next Sunday rolls around, every one here will be sitting around the TV watching, reguardless of who the refs are.

And the NFL knows it

This from someone that didn’t have a dog in the fight.That call was bad but I don’t think we watched 3 min of football without a blown call.Seattle kept their head in the game and owned Rodgers,or I should say the offensive line in the first half.You could also blame the pesonal fowl for a first down that lead to the first touch down for the outcome of the game.The officiating sucks,for both sides.Sure Seattle is going to take the call and the win.It may be their turn in the barrel the next three weeks.It’s tough when it happens to your team.With NFL officiating and NHL lockout makes college and highschool sports look better all the time.

Packer fans today should be saying:

While the Vikings were getting screwed, I said nothing. Now, when we get screwed, there was no one there to speak for us.

Horrible calls in every game I’ve seen this year. I think the Packers would likely have two more wins with non scab refs. There were several no calls in the 49er game that stopped drives. I wonder if these guys are on the take.

I changed my mind. I hope the officials stay on strike all season. I have the rest of my life to watch well officiated football. I may never experience this hilarity again. enjoy it while you can. Do you realize we will be able to talk about this season for the rest of our lives. Hey remember the replacement refs? yeah remember that one guy threw his hat and the dude slipped on it!!??? *high fives*

i can’t wait for the playoffs. as a bills fan i don’t have much to cheer for season after season. so i have to find little things to keep my interest. i have it this year. its just too amazing.

Let’s not forget that watching sports is entertainment and right now for me the replacement refs are more entertaining to watch then the players!

I also suggest we stop blaming these replacement officials. They are not qualified to do the job and it’s really not their fault. And instead, start blaming the owners and the entire NFL league for putting them in that situation. If an airline pilot goes on strike, I don’t want someone off the street flying the plane with me in it. Or maybe we should blame all the Packer fans who actually own shares of stock with the Packers? Technically they’re owners too and should have not let the replacement officials on the field in the first place.

I am embarrassed how the Packer fans are behaving on Facebook and other social media outlets today over a silly game.

Play a little better the previous 59 minutes against a team you are favored to beat instead of being totally out played and shut the ELL up …

Just watched the play. Jennings should have just swatted the ball down. Game over.

Although I think it could have gone either way, I have to disagree with the worst call ever… I am sure there are worse. In fact…. this call leaves the possibility of it actually being right. On Sunday, in the Vikes game, the ref gave Hardballs a challenge with no time outs…. now that is the worst call ever. That was black and white. On a side note, how about Tates shove in the back on # 37…. obvious offensive pass intereference, game over, no controversy.

how come we have to shut the ELL UP but you can give your opinion? That is the reason why the entire game is played not just 59 minutes. The play was made by the defense to win the game. Doesn’t matter what happened.

Funny, I told some people at work that this year would be a good year to win it. With this reffing, everyone has a chance.

Of course that gives us a 1-32 chance only.

The best part would be all the sour grapes being harvested from the east.

and GO SEAHAWKS!
