From the SF/GB game, while the "normal refs" may make some questionable calls, this crew was well past that mark. When the normal refs make mistakes, it is usually not a routine play that they blow.
Example: To start the game we saw a phantom call. "Illegal block in the back, ON THE KICKING TEAM" and they gave GB 5 yards to start.
Looking at the replay, we see the player the penalty was called on, going down the field and not blocking anyone, hell not even touching anyone, and in fact being pushed in his own back.
The flagrant false start by the left tackle of the 49ers at one point in the game. Everyone saw it. The GB Defense stood up waiting for the whistle and flag, and the 49ers ran the play anyway. No whistle.
Those are just two that stick out on off the top of my head as gross negligence.
I'll avoid the phantom player calls where they were calling penalties on player #'s that weren't even in the game.
Nor will I point out the unbelieveably late flags that came in. It was as if they saw the penalty happen, and waited for someone else to throw their flag, before they even reached for theirs. (example: every pass interference call that was made)
