What would have happened if...
-
Hue had refused to have the team take the field to start the 2nd Half (a la Earle Bruce against LSU in 1987) until the line judge/whole crew etc who missed the false start call - which not only would have taken points off the board but would have pushed SD out of their kicker's field goal range - had been replaced or some other sort of demand had been met, as a protest against the absolutely horrible officiating. That call was completely inexcusable and is somewhat going to be overlooked due to the fact that we got blown out and it ultimately wasn't the major factor in why we lost. If the game had been close,, however, that call easily could have cost us the game. Again. I mean these calls are totally unreal and they just KEEP COMING, game in and game out. I have personally never seen ANYTHING like this.
I don't expect he'd do it, but just wonder what would have happened if he - or any NFL coach in a similar situation for that matter - showed some Shmucking balls and stood up to these Shmucking referees.. I mean, it's not like everyone isn't totally aware we are being screwed week in and week out. Big time.

I believe the worthless, corrupt commish gots some splainin' to do.

What would have happened is a penalty, and if they continued to refuse they would have forfeited

Honestly maybe that would have been ok if we did that and forfeited. This officiating cowpoop needs fixed. It’s likely going to take something dramatic to get Goodells attention.

first Ratley or Callaway have to catch at least 1 of those balls for a score early..the score was 14-3 at time of false start. Went to 21-3 with assisted call. we kick FG just before half 21-6..We squandered 5 of 6 punts again, falling inside the 20..We ran 72 plays compared to LA's 58. LA-32mins. brns-28mins..LA prepared a running game plan to attack outside edges..we came prepared to not stop them, from not...

I have said it for years the nfl has something against the Browns. The bad call horrible breaks nothing goes the Browns way. The first this year was the call on Garrett against the stillers in the first quarter where he was called for landing his weight on Ben which was called wrong Ben was out of the pocket and was a runner at that time which would have been 3 instead of 7 browns win in regulation. The second was the first down. And today the false start. No one knows how that would have affected the game but momentum is a fickle bitch and it could have made a huge difference in the game but it was a blatant miss no doubt it was on purpose the line judge has one job.

GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

We still would have gotten our asses kicked.

I've never seen anything like that missed false start call. It was absolutely terrible and unbelievable.

Yes, the uncalled false start was bad. It didn't cost us the game tho because good ole hue came out and said we can do worse.....and did.

Sorry for posting in plain English. I don't stutter and you should have paid attention in school. Bye!

Crazy solutions aside, how many weeks in a row will it take before the Browns make some sort of formal statement? This is objectively three weeks in a town where the NFL will have to admit they were wrong.
Every week on the replay shows its "and well the browns got unlucky on that call". When does that concept go out the window and we actually hold these guys accountable? That was honestly the worst missed false start I've ever seen watching football.

You don't stutter.
You do post nonsense, though.
Unfortunately I never had a class where we were taught how to decipher the ramblings of some old coot like yourself whining about a head coach of a NFL football team at nauseum.

The NFL still does not employ their referees full-time, year round, correct?
That baffles me.

Yes...there are bad calls in every game and against every team, just about every week. The difference is with the Browns, they're just not good enough (yet) to overcome mistakes. Either their own or the ones by the officials. Having watched that defense get ass raped up and down the field, do you really think it would've mattered if it became 3rd and 10 rather than 3rd and 5? The defense gave up a 90 yard drive in 2 plays! That one missed call didn't have one thing to do with the outcome of that game.

For the ones who think "well this was a terrible call, so it would have changed the score, so the Browns win" have absolutely no clue what goes into a football game. Yes, the score might have changed AT THE TIME. But a call in a 1st quarter that would have been 3 instead of 7 doesn't mean the outcome would change

The coaches must be delighted with this officials stuff. Taking some of the heat off them if nothing else.

Expect an official apology from the League office after they review the tape. It's not going to change anything. What's happened is a lot of the long time highly respected officials have retired. But it's been pointed out some of the long time officiating crews (the leftovers when the good guys retired) are the ones most frequently responsible for making some of the bad calls this year, not the new crews.

i agree it likely wouldnt have changed sht, but that diesnt change the fact the fact these are eye openingly bad calls coming weekly now. Its like they want nick bosa in cleveland
