The problem though, is how do you fix it? The NFL wanted more penalties called this year, they've given them all of these points of emphasis of things to call.
It's not like there is this huge pool of good refs just sitting around, no one wants to be a ref every year at high school I get to hear about the shortage of officials in the country. |
More penalties, more breaks for advertising, more talk about the NFL during the week.
Why would they want to fix this? |

But it's not just on the refs. Why the owners want a league with all this subjective bs is beyond me. They asked for more penalties, and the refs are falling in line. More penalties means more offense which means more money. |

I always think it's funny how it goes into a well they just suck argument yet somehow that suck always benefits certain teams.
You never see the Cardinals get a bunch of calls that help them beat the Patriots. |
They are missing an opportunity to make officiating grades into another meta. Officials should have their game day grades posted each week, along with a seasonal grade. They could spend entire segments on it each week between games.

NFL will announce that the refs made some mistakes and move on.
They’ve done this how many times now? |
