Now I’m no conspiracy theorist but it sure looked like the refs wanted GB to win last nights game. Two sketchy illegal hand calls on the lions D at critical times in the game. I have no dog in this fight couldn’t of cared less who won. But the lions were robbed. Anyone else have an unbiased opinion on this?

I'm a HUGE Packers fan but I can say those calls against Trey Flowers were complete bogus calls. There are bad calls in every game. Some more than others. Packers shot themselves in the foot this game with three dropped TD passes (Jimmy Graham, Aaron Jones and then the interception because Darrius Shepherd failed to catch the ball). However, I believe the game would've resulted the same. They would've kicked the field goal on 4th down and then the defense would've kept Stafford and the Lions from scoring because they did nothing much in the 2nd half but we'll never know. It's a messy win but i'll take it. Every team have benefited from bad calls. Lets not forget, the Saints should've represented the NFC in the Super Bowl last year and probably defending champs. NFL needs to work on their officiating. It's getting real sloppy.

Originally posted by mjhaverkamp View PostI believe GB scored after the first bad hands to the face call as well, those two penalties were bs, not to mention the targeting or defenseless receiver call, that was terrible as well, they scored after that call too.

Booger is terrible no doubt. I could live with the helmet to helmet although I didn’t agree with it, it was helmet to helmet. I understand he couldn’t pull off but more times than not they will call that. But the two hands to the face calls on third down in the red zone makes me believe that ref is a packers fan or he made a little money.

The problem with complaining about bad calls is the game should have never been that close in the first place that a ref's call could swing a game. All through high school that was beat in our head. "If you had just been up by 28, one bad call wouldn't matter". Both the Lions and the Packers put themselves in that position that a bad call could make or break them. That's their fault, not the refs.
Refs have made bad calls since the first time they walked on the field and they will until the end of time.
