"All-star" officiating crew for Rams-Chiefs game
NFL ups intensity with all-star officials for Rams-Chiefs game

Kevin Seifert
ESPN.com NFL Nation



The NFL took the unusual step this week of assigning an "all-star" officiating crew to the most highly anticipated game of the season, adding to the playofflike frenzy for Monday night's matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams.

Referee Clete Blakeman will work the game with only two members of his regular crew, umpire Ramon George and down judge Dana McKenzie. The other five officials -- including Jim Lapetina, who will handle replay -- were plucked from four other crews.

The approach is similar to how the NFL assigns officials to playoff games, a process that is based on performance and seniority rather than crew. But it is rarely, if ever, employed before the postseason. Officials typically work on the same eight-person crews throughout the regular season to maximize continuity and familiarity among members.

Individual crew members are occasionally juggled for health or scheduling reasons. But a series of actions this season have indicated the league is moving away from the consistent crew concept, in favor of a more aggressive administration of officiating. Earlier this season, the league bounced down judge Hugo Cruz among four crews before ultimately making him its first-ever official to be fired for performance during the season.

NFL spokesman Michael Signora confirmed Sunday that "there is a rotation amongst the crews throughout the season." Signora did not provide details on the decision to overhaul Blakeman's crew for Monday night's game.

An officiating source said Sunday that the five officials added to Monday night's crew are all highly respected and have performed well this season.

The Chiefs-Rams game, originally scheduled to be played in Mexico City before it was relocated to Los Angeles, is a rare matchup. Since 1970, there have been only four other games pitting teams with one or fewer losses this late in the season. And according to the Elias Sports Bureau, this is the latest matchup ever between two teams averaging at least 33 points per game.

The following is the full crew for Monday night's game, as listed on the official flip card published by the NFL, with the officials' permanent referee in parentheses:


Referee: Clete Blakeman

Umpire: Ramon George (Blakeman)

Down judge: Dana McKenzie (Blakeman)

Line judge: Rusty Baynes (John Hussey)

Field judge: Dale Shaw (Jerome Boger)

Side judge: Brad Freeman (Clay Martin)

Back judge: Tony Steratore (Boger)

Replay: Jim Lapetina (Brad Allen)

Did we every get another angle on the long pass completion by the Rams that lead to their next to last TD? You know the one where it looked like the ball hit the ground.

This all-star crew is what had me change the channel ~4 minutes into the game.

I was looking for some confirming video evidence. That's a huge blown call.

I called this shit from a mile away...and it played exactly like i said.

Chiefs got the hurricane Katrina treatment...coupled with two LA teams in the post-season hunt.

I've never seen that amount of flags thrown against a visiting team...to start a game, in 40+ years of watching football. It was very "off"....the refs came out of the gate ready to bury the Chiefs. It not a coincidence that KC was the #1 scoring team in the 1st quarter...refs didn't waste any time getting LA a 13-0 lead.

The refs are going to be in a state of confusion in that Sunday night Chargers/Steelers game...they wont know who to cheat for. My guess is the Chargers...we might actually witness the Steerlers o-line get a holding call.
Spot on. As usual.

We win this game easily if it was played in Mexico City.

Can't help but wonder if that's why the NFL conveniently ignored the condition of the field in Mexico City until less than a week before the game.


OH GEE NO TIME TO FIX IT GUESS WE'LL HAVE TO MOVE THE GAME TO LA

I agree. The entire broadcast was for LA relief funds.
