    maybe not the worst call in history, but it was not great.

    the sad thing is, people will show up to the stadiums next week and turn on their NFL Sunday ticket next week and this will not make a bit of difference in when the "real" refs return.

    They earned that title after hiring Pete Carroll.

    Actually, the refs made the right call. If opposing players come down with the football and neither rips it out of the others arms, it automatically goes to the intended receiver which in this case would be the Seahawks even if Jennings had slightly more possession, the Seahawks still maintained contact.

    However, yes, most of the games have been horribly officiated in general and the two refs should have conferred before making a call, especially under 2 minutes when the play had to be reviewed anyway.

    I agree with joehempel....this should definitely kick them into gear in resolving the strike and getting the normal refs back.

    are you blind? Tate NEVER had possession of the football. he had his hand on the ball at most.

    That's not correct. If they have simultaneous possession, it goes to the offensive player. That was not simultaneous possession. Even Gerry Markbreit said that.

    As an avid NFL fan, you disgust me.

    Why did you have to say "as an avid NFL fan" - you implying I'm not?
