@Chris:

My hometown team is looking respectable.  I'd like to see more points, considering how much yardage they're producing.

And this inability to get past the 1 yard line is infuriating.

The O line isn't doing their job

Well, to be fair, $cam should have gone up and over and Tolbert was on his way to the turf before Brooks was anywhere near him… This is a great O line going up against a great front but their ball carriers have to do their job too.

This is embarrassing officiating. Wow.

[bagley920]

Really bad calls. A headbutt is a headbutt. Should be called both ways

Absolutely, and they have missed a couple of blatant PIs, an obvious TD, and 12 men in the huddle. I'm kind of amazed that a playoff crew is having such a hard time with easy calls.

The trip that went uncalled last night could have decided that game too. That would have been a first down on a drive where the Colts could have tied. Pats scored on their gift possession and that becomes a 14 point swing. There's an official who's job it is to hawk the QB, period. It shouldn't be possible for that call to go unnoticed.

All of SF points except the most recent TD shouldn't even be on the board without those blown calls

Hard to say, because they missed two critical PIs where Carolina got there early as well.

Not a fan per se but pulling for them to win the conference now that the Saints are out.

Mistake.

How can NFL playoff officiating be so bad? They don't even know the rules. They just ruled a play where Demeryius Thomas didn't complete a catch going to the ground as a fumble. There is literally no way that that could have been construed as a fumble by the letter of the NFL rulebook, and they had an opportunity to review it and STILL got it wrong.

This postseason is fraught with inept officiating and there's simply no excuse for it.

As a resident of Houston, I'm offended by the "Hilly Billies" logo.  There are no hills here and I won't stand for such blatant disregard for the truth.

Never quite understood this either, as the original definition was a Michigan potato farmer. It was actually slang used to describe the Irish that settled in the upper peninsula, potato farmers.  Someone picks it up once to describe a Alabama hick (which would be closer to accurate) and voila, everyone that's a touch too backwoods for the urbanites is instantly one.

If anybody else in the history of ever has called this before I would buy you a brew.
