that sucks...stay away until they get competent refs...these guys are pretty bad. Even after the replay, they still get it wrong...and that ref didn't know they had to kick a field afterward. I think he is going to watch his back throughout his life now...a lot of angry gambler...

Check out this article on espn about the money involved just based on that call.

Those refs should have done the discount double check.

Even going beyond betting on one game here's the longer-term effects of the call. Every game matters in the NFL. It could be the kind of call that puts Seattle in the playoffs or costs Green Bay home field advantage in a game or two.

The call didn't just have an immediate impact on gamblers, it also impacted the Packers' Super Bowl odds. After Monday night's game, the Las Vegas Hotel has changed the odds for the Packers to win the Super Bowl from 7-1 Monday to 9-1 Tuesday.

When facing a suspension what'd you expect? Of course he's apologetic. Nobody wants to lose a paycheck.

Even if that happens it will not be just because of that one game or that one call. It will also be because of a lot of other things that have happend and will happen this year. Let us say that the Packers are 9-7 at the end of the year and they don't make the playoffs. But they will make the playoffs if they are 10-6. The fact that they don't make the playoffs will not be just because of the game last night and that call at the end of the game last night. It will also be because of those other 6 games.

Default The Packers - Seattle Monday Night Game

1. When, exactly, did the Referee determine what "the call on the field" actually was, to then review "the call on the field" ???


2. The Review guy in the booth, was --not-- a replacement, the review guy up in the booth was a current regular and experienced NFL employee -- What was he thinking ? ?


3. It was never a simultaneous catch, either in the air or on the turf. The intended receiver had only one hand on the ball, and later put a second hand on the ball. The defender had two hands on the ball, and consequently possession of the ball all the way through. Is there video evidence that shows otherwise ? ?

He lowered his helmet and drove it right into the guy's skull. Even if Schaub did lower his head like he says (I don't see it), he's going head first into his chest.

I don't think a ref has enough power to get the Redskins to 8 wins.

From what I’ve learned by listening to the radio and watching espn all day….the second that ref signaled TD, there’s no way it could’ve been overturned….how that’s possible I’m still on.

if anything, they should've kept the INT call.....then that could've been overturned by the replay.

@ least that's the way i'm understanding it.

I'm in shocked that they did it...I guess it's the best time to attract new customers.

That's cause they don't have me doing it see those buffalo wild wings commercials multiply those by 50 and that's how I'd be.

Can I do sports book.com in a non gambling state? (sigh just checked nope )
