1. I kicked off last Monday’s “Traina Thoughts” with an item about how bad the NFL officiating was in Week 6. Well, guess what? It was even worse in Week 7.
The officiating in the NFL has always been suspect, but it’s a full-blown problem now, no matter how much the league wants to ignore it.
Refs are going to miss calls. That’s part of the gig. Nobody is perfect. But the outcomes of games are being determined by the officials, and that’s a major, major issue.
