Heck, the regulars even managed to botch a coin flip for gosh sakes. There are a few questionable calls in nearly every game. One only needs to follow fan forums to have them all pointed out (at least the ones that go against the forum home team!) It should be noted that there is so much inconsistency from crew to crew among the regular refs that teams actually scout them for their tendencies. That should tell us all something. I think the howling from players and coaches to bring back the regulars comes from not knowing these guys, what to expect from them, that don't have a "book" on them yet. If the media howled about every bad call with the regular refs the way they have in this preseason, the discussion would be about replacing part time refs with full-time dedicated NFL refs.</blockquote>
