Well watching the Falcons take out the Eagles in Philly last night tells me that they're not a half bad team and Steelers beat them on the road, not with offense so much but with a strong D. If the offense gets their act together they could have a great season. They might need to put more points on the board this coming Sunday vs Chargers but it's a home game and should be a good matchup. It's still early but they're giving me some hope.
 
The Pitt vs WVU game on Saturday was really good! I was on vacation in Massachusetts but was able to watch it.

With the NFL being one of the fastest games around, it doesn’t surprise me that a bunch of 70 year old refs are making bad calls…. Not saying that age is everything, I’m probably the age of their youngest ref and wouldn’t be able to keep up, yet have the rule book memorized and quick enough in my decision making to throw a flag or don’t throw. It is a tough job and they clearly do not have the best available doing it.
I can’t say it has been any better or worse this year. I know they do the offseason “emphasis” on certain things. That Baltimore/KC game was flat out ridiculous with Ravens line getting a flag on every play for lining up an inch or two off back of the imaginary line. Then KC appearing to do the same exact thing and nothing…. That game, yes, I noticed.
