[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 897964, member: 12283"] Obviously that's all the team can do. They can't control the officiating. But the officiating can affect the game. And they did-- to the tune of tipping it in TB's favor. For instance, if they call holding on Lazard before the half, we go into Q3 at 14-10, 14-13, or even up 17-14. Instead it was 21-10. That's a swing of anywhere from 7 to 14 points. That's massive! And it's just one play. You can forgive one play. Refs aren't perfect. But they gave it to Tampa literally the entire game, and then nailed GB when it was literally the difference between losing or continuing the fight. No one can tell me that wasn't the difference. I'm more than happy to discuss failures on the part of coaches and players eventually. But all coaches and all players make mistakes in all games. The refs' job is to make it a level playing field so that the team who wins, deserves to win and vice versa. They absolutely failed in their jobs, they tilted the field, and they cost Green Bay a shot at a Super Bowl. So before anything else, I'm pointing the finger squarely at that. [/QUOTE]
