    I wouldn't say best. "Hottest" for sure. It's often better to be "hottest", especially as the NFL heads to the playoffs.

    If I'm a Packers fan, I'd still be pissed about the officials giving Seattle that early Christmas present. They'd still have a chance at tying Atlanta in the NFC for best record (and Seattle still wouldn't even be guaranteed a spot in the playoffs).

    Replacement or not, it doesn't matter. There's been a lot of terrible officiating this season, and it's continued even after the regular refs returned.

    Seahawks got screwed by the refs @ Miami that cost us the win. So the "bad call wins" evened each other out.

    yeah, but since it didn't fit in with the "replacement refs SUCK!111!!" motif, then no one cared or saw it on 30 different replay angles. Or got a rule wrong.

    That one was far less of a gimme. Far less. Nothing I've seen this year was as blatant as the GB game. The officials were terrible that game, but it went BOTH ways. And you need to be honest, the Seahawks played terribly that game IMO. The coaches made some questionable calls. Not bagging on the Seahawks, but sometimes you don't come ready to play, and that was one of the only times this season I felt that way about the Seahawks.

    The NFL officiating this year has been horrendous all-around. Replacement refs or not. I don't remember being upset about so many calls (and that's just as a fan watching as much NFL as I can, not just watching my own teams).

    I like reading Mike Pereira's write-up week-to-week, reviewing some of the calls. I think this is one of the best parts of the NFL - having a rules expert provide some critique and transparency.

    I'd agree on offense. Carroll hadn't opened up the playbook for Wilson, yet. The D brought it, though.

    Eh, I'd say they were great early, mediocre late. The line was showing some holes, and that kept the D on the field, and they slowly wore down.

    Not happening. Redskins will have to beat the Cowboys and as banged up as the Cowboys are there going to pull out the win.

    Sticking with today's theme of their vs. there vs. they're.... it's "they're going to....".

    The Redskins v. Cowboys game is probably going to be one of the best games of the week. Should be a dogfight.

    Both D's suck so it should be a pretty high scoring game. I'm thinking 31-27 cowboys win.
