i saw more then a few penalies not call but this game was just too much. i understand th idea of "come on ref just let the guys play fome football" but this was beyond that and completely unsafe. i saw way too many face masks, blocking in the back and yes the notorious horse collar that didnt get called. The worse part about it was one of those horse collars were on McNabb.HE IS OUR QB FOR HEAVEN SAKE. that sould never happen to a qb and it did that is just unacceptable. these are not issues of poor sportsmanship like holding tounting or PI which in alot of cases could be acceptable to overlook, but this is Saftey concers your talking about someond neck and back. one play (and granted they did call this) westbrooks head almost got ripped off by 3 defenders. I'm surprised hes alive! I never and i really mean never want to see these refs again. they are a discrase to the nfl and american sports in genral. Pacman isnt the only one making the NFL look bad anymore it is the very ref that they intrusted MNF to. IF we ever see these guys again in the stripes working our game we sould just send in our back-ups becuase i dont want to see McNabb or Westbrook or any starter on any team get injured because these refs are to blind to see an elephantin a haystack! I'll rather loose a game then loose a starter and risk our season.

Thanks for reading my vent please feel free to add more.

I said to my friend last night,

Westbrook is going to be looking at his facemask at the end of the game to see if it is still attached to his helmet. There were at least 4 instances where someone grabbed his facemask and I think maybe 2 were called. The Greg Lewis pass interference should have been on him (not complaining though lol).

The officiating all weekend was terrible.

They give it to Smith, and they stop him again!!!! They stop him again!!! The Eagles take over on downs!!!

Official corruption

There was at least 4 face masks on Westbrook alone. I think this was a take the boy out of the game scheme. I also think, Good Ole Boy JJones paid off the officials. It was horrible. Probably offered them lifetime of gas for their vehicles too. He has all the oil barrons behind him. If you look close at the kickoff return by Felix Jones, the Cowboys blocking were doing alot of holding.
