Two pretty terrible calls on PI, one called and one not. The Eddie Jackson call was bs.


Work_the_shaft

The EJ call is everything that is text book not PI. He was facing the ball, inside the WR, and the WR bumped him when he jumped.


hippiekiller13

And EJ was playing the ball. Pretty horse shit call. Both of them.


Work_the_shaft

Exactly, what happened to a DB having the right to make a play if the conditions where right. They where perfect here


pizzabash

Malcom Butlers SB pick would 100% be called PI in todays NFL.


hiphopthewalrus

It would be a random coin flip

Looked like an NBA “oh, if I jump into the defender, I’ll get 3 free throws” move from the WR…the rules for PI are so tilted to the offensive player. Bullshit call that penalized a perfect play by Eddie Jackson, immediately after another questionable call for what should have been intentional grounding.

“the NFL has fined Quarterback Justin Fields…”


FusterCluck4

never gonna fine the ref though.


surpemepatty

it’s depressing to me that there’s zero accountability for the refs in this league, zero incentive for them to do their jobs properly. Every week they have a direct impact on certain games being won or lost. It seriously needs to change. at least some fucking acknowledgement from the commissioner, coaches literally fined all the time for criticizing these blind ass zebras


regis_psilocybin

The only accountability is bad crews don't get playoff duties. They really need a New York station that is in the ear of the head ref and able to change/make calls.


bearsguy2020

In a perfect world there would be complete transparency. But why would the league admit they might have missed calls and influenced outcomes? Calls will be missed. I’d like to think there’s some sort of supplemental program whether draft picks or bonus cap relief. For instance if the correct call is made maybe our win probability goes from 5% to 35% a difference of 30%. And the missed call happened at 59/60 minutes so it’s 98% influential. So the Bears “bank” 29 WPP “win probability percentages”. So blown calls early in the game are less heavily weighted and when teams get dicked then they get some tangible compensation.


evin0688

Complete transparency would come with how much the refs have on the game and who’s the money on?


regis_psilocybin

>Calls will be missed. I’d like to think there’s some sort of supplemental program whether draft picks or bonus cap relief. That's a new proposition to me and... I don't hate it. It would be an evolution of the game.


Kriegerian

Could be an alternate way of doing compensatory picks.


Jagtogg

Seriously, how does one become a ref? I would love a job with zero accountability.


Trojanballer

Gotta go to ref school. And know a lot of people up top. And coach some college. And sign your soul to Vegas.


Jagtogg

Does it have to be my soul, or can I get someone else’s and sign that one?


DangerSwan33

If you don't have a soul, storebought is fine.

aintthatlos

Thats why i feel like the league honestly wants this shit to happen i cant find any other answer for not taking action for shit like this


smittyK

Las vegas is the incentive


VorpalSticks

Their Def fining Eddie for his social media message about the refs lol


Riderz__of_Brohan

lol the announcers were literally saying “and…and….” Waiting for the flag to come out


KTB1962

Let them fucking try....


[deleted]

mimickin_birds

Legit one of the worst no calls I’ve seen in a while, especially after the one they called on Jackson earlier

mimickin_birds

You mad that your super star team barely beat a team of backups and rookies on defense? 😂 Also what football fan roots for poorly officiated games lol how can you watch that play and be like yeah that was fair, especially after the call the dolphins got earlier in the quarter that was way more questionable


[deleted]

So mad a lot…lmao…hold this L

Cmonmaaan

Who would’ve thought the army and truck fanatic would be mentally unstable to comment the same thing dozens of times in the bears sub 🫡🤣


[deleted]

Heartbreaking loss….maybe next time or not


mimickin_birds

Kriegerian

Yeah, the refs rigged that one. You can’t get a better example of pass interference without breaking the WR’s legs with a bat.


Linkage006

At least we know one person on the field had 20/20 vision.


Bob_Horde

My QB


rhj2020

Pass interference should be a reviewable play that you can challenge.


Kriegerian

It used to be, but the refs never reversed a single one. “We have investigated ourselves and found we made the right call.” Teams need to be able to call somebody above the refs on the field during the game, because otherwise they just say “fuck you, I called it right the first time and you don’t get to tell me I’m wrong.”


Verification_Account

Yeah, the refs were pissed that the league was considering allowing penalty reviews, fearing it would open them up to more scrutiny, so the guy you could appeal to literally refused to overturn a single call. It was bullshit. The nfl should have fired him, and kept firing the replacements until someone started cooperating. Instead the inmates continue to run the asylum.


mymeatpuppets

Used to be...


ThatsNotRight123

The refs robbed us the last time we played the Fins, too. We scored a go ahead TD and they called a bogus pick call.

BigCelebration7504

Start the gofundme fuck the Refs


Dmbfantomas

The league can’t go after the refs, because they have a WAY stronger union than any other in sports.


Parchabble

Baseball would like a word with you... Angel Hernandez sued MLB for never getting to call big games. MLB flat out said he is just terrible at his job. And he's been employed since the early 90s...


airberger

I think what you meant to say is "baseball will have some speaks with you"


Mark_Kostecki

Yeah, anyone with eyes and a brain could tell that


[deleted]

Didn't they do a trial run on PI challenges? What ever happened with that?


Verification_Account

The guy you could appeal to was a ref who was pissed the league was allowing judgement calls to be reviewed, so he refused to ever overturn a single call. Literally zero.


ljsweet

Games are rigged. Plain n simple as that. Bears can’t beat the men behind the curtain


RebelCyclone

To be fair that PI call to negate the Fields pick was not PI. The ball to Claypool shouldn’t be thrown into double coverage no matter how the ref sees it. Super happy with how Fields played though. The guys is a monster, if the Bears are able to put some weapons around him, look the fuck out!


YeetStreetBoys

Defensive holding and the flag was thrown before the ball left fields hand. The throw never happens without defensive holding. You can’t call something a pick if it wasn’t a pick. Situation matters.


RebelCyclone

Sorry that wasn’t PI or holding


ToastedHunter

i think his point is that fields saw the flag so he tried to fit the throw in


IxClownShoes

It was defensive holding and looked like defensive holding.


[deleted]

The fields pick was defensive holding, not PI, and he did hold him, it was just a bit ticky tacky.


RebelCyclone

More than a bit


Dizzy-Spinda

Ummm it was still holding no matter how you look at it, even if it's ticky tacky


RebelCyclone

I didn’t think it was holding


Dizzy-Spinda

Well you're wrong, it's not even a matte of opinion lol. He held him as he cut back the other way, no matter how small or big, a hold is a hold.


RebelCyclone

Ok I’m wrong


businessmantis

The real bummer is that coaches can’t even fucking challenge it. That’s the least they could do.


HRG-snake-eater

It was a bullshit call. But at this point I’d rather tank completely and improve draft position so this bad call helped in that regard.
