Body of an email I just sent to my local NBC/CBS/FOX network affiliates- It's not perfect but I hope it gets the point across...

I have enjoyed your (network name) broadcasts of NFL games (as well as other shows on your station) in previous years. However, the quality of the games is diminished with the NFL replacement officials being used this year. I will no longer being watching these games (and, of course, not seeing your advertiser's product) until the officiating dispute is resolved. I would encourage you to remove these games from your schedule until the officiating dispute is resolved. I realize the NFL dispute is not in your direct control, but if you continue to broadcast the games I will have to question whether you are screening your shows for quality, and stop watching altogether. Thank you for taking the time to read this message.

I've never posted before, I'm 51 years old &amp; bleed Green &amp; Gold. I am now done watching football. It's time for Packer Nation to unite in not watching &amp; not showing up for games until this mess is cleaned up. Is it a hate crime to call for the assassination of Roger Goodell, Jerry Jones, &amp; the rest of the owners who have ruined the game we all love?

Werthy took plays off during college? Raji MUST be doing a post-bac this season. Lost in the ref's ineptitude will be the poor play (again) of Raji (all pro?) and Woodson (all pro?) whose poor coverage last year was masked by takeaways.

first time post, long time reader.

just wanted to say that I'm am done with the product the NFL has put on the field this year.

My Sundays will be used for something more productive than this garbage. I don't need heartache from anything more than my team playing bad football. Which they did for a half. But they righted the ship and earned a victory in the 2nd...twice. Twice the refs striped it away with an additional bogus pass interference to boot.

It's not your fault, Packers. You were the team that got hit by the bullet all the other teams have been trying to dodge.

Love the packers.

But I will not support the NFL anymore and put money in the hands of the greedy individuals behind the curtains.

Anybody who say it could see that Jennings had the ball and he caught it! Tate or whatever his name is had his hands in it after it was clearly caught and all he could do was touch it. And as sad as it is I don't think the NFL will change the ruling if the game because it would cause to many problems for them. This is all BS and I'm really getting sick of all the lockouts. Like seriously?! Just pay them the money it's not like the NFL doesn't make enough as it is and with them being stupid and greedy like this is only pissing off the fans and I'm sure the players too which in the end is going to cost them ALOT of money because nobody will watch it or spend any money on anything related to the NFL and if we're lucky maybe the packers will just forget about next Sundays game?! Then if the NFL asks how they could have forgot about the game they can just say well the refs said...blah blah we didn't have to play? For whatever reason I mean they called the first interception that was a touchdown for the other team! I'm not sure if that made sense but you get my point. I'm realllllly beyond livid about this game it was super complete bogus BS!!! The only hard part for me is not watching the next game although I would probably get super mad from that one too with these refs

I am also finished with the NFL. The roughing the passer on Walden that wiped out the INT was a joke, as was the pass interference on Shields. The final play was the final straw. The Packer defender clearly had possession of the ball and the refs blew the call. The NFL is a joke. They can have their BS game, and I'll keep my money.

McCarthy has to understand that a finesse, pass-happy game plan won't work when the fouls are not called -- that's been apparent for three weeks now.

McCarthy does not in-game adjust -- even after 4, 5, and 6 sacks?

Is Rodgers too hung-up on his MVP-ness?
He's got to check-down, or just throw in-completes.

When a game is lost by a ref, in reality it's lost well before the end.

Feeling jobbed, but I sincerely hope McCarthy walks in that locker room, looks his offense in the eyes, and says "the first man who thinks he played a great, mistake free game, step forward". This offense needs to seriously remove its head from its ass, no excuses. 8 sacks in one half??? Are you kidding me??! Defense was incredible, way to go rookies. Including McMillian's INTERCEPTION!!
Jobbed.

Talk is cheap. There can be no more NFL football watched if change is to be affected. The owners only understand revenue.

Much as it may pain us, we just have to stop watching this bullshit. Until now whatever excrement the NFL has shoveled onto our televisions, we've, at best, somewhat hesitantly consumed, up to and including that ridiculous Ravens-Pats game last night.

But this. Has. To. Stop.

Didn't feel one way or the other about Carroll and Wilson previously but after watching the aftermath interviews, wow. Particularly Carroll. "We just hung in there." You betcha, champ.

On bright side, under McCarthy pack always seems to respond to this type of curcumstance. And hats off to Hayward and McMillian. Played their asses off. When we get house and neal back look out! This will go down as teds all around best draft. Every rookie rds 1-6 looks good.

- Despite the bad call... this is an 8-8 team
- Where did the offense go? 3 straight games with zero offense is no longer an aberration. There is something to it. You can't win many games in the NFL without offense. I think Aaron Rodgers has been reading last year's headlines as he is clearly not the same player. Where are the back shoulder throws? Where are the timing routes? It baffles me that a team with last year's offense and all players returning is this bad.
- The loss is bad enough, but the realization that this team, in current form, is not going anywhere this season is much worse.
- Mike McCarthy has a huge job ahead of him trying to turn this team around.
- Yay for the defense against a rookie QB!!
- I love how the announcers just dismissed the offensive pass interference on the last play. You can't do anything that blatant on a hail mary.
- Who is that imposter wearing the number 12 jersey out there?
- I love the Pack, but this team is very hard to watch given all of the expectations going into this season.

The officials have been allowing more grabby-grabby in the secondary, and it's mucking with the QB/WR timing.

That being said, it's on MM to figure that out and adjust the playcalling to something more like we saw in the second half of the Fail Mary game. Once our O can stay on the field for 5 or so plays, they get in a groove and cannot be stopped.

A-Rod is back to not trusting his O-Line like early in 2009. The loss of Wells looks like it has severely weaked what was the strength of our line last year: not allowing interior pressure.

Aaron can't step up into the pocket and Bulaga and Newhouse aren't having great years either. Those things combined is yielding a lot of pressures that did not occur last year.

I'm not ready to say that. They certainly don't look good so far, but it's not to say they don't have the potential to turn it around. Remember 2010, offense started out slow for the first few games. Once it got together, combined with the D playing well, superbowl.

I know the hardcore bloggers will say how poorly the Packers offense played in the first half - and they did play poorly. But outside of one big Seattle play in the first half the D was solid the whole game. The Packers offense was good not great in the second half. Point being, sometimes the offense wins a game and other times the defense. For the game as a whole,the Packers outplayed Seattle and were raped by the officials.

Phantom roughing the passer negates an INT well in Crosby s range.

Phantom P.I. on Shields takes it from what should've been a 2nd and 30+ to a 1st and ten.

And the last play speaks for itself.

After the 1) reversed McMillian interception and 2) the Shields PI call that wiped out a bunch of SEA penalties that put them in long yardage territory, it was a brand new game.

Everything that had happened up to that point - 8 sacks, the real Tate touchdown, and our second half dominance - had all been cancelled out by the Lady Foot Locker employees. And this was BEFORE the blown call on the final play.

as far as I'm concerned the packers have a 2-1 record. the packers should give jennings the credit for the pick and themselves credit for the win and if goodell doesn't like it he can suck it. if it comes down to the packers being one win out of the playoffs I say they show up wherever it is the 6th seed is supposed to play that week and march onto the field with the other 6th seed*

Sad that it had to come to the refs deciding a game, but it happened before (maybe not as blatant as this one, but still). The old refs made mistakes too.
The main issue is that these refs have no respect from the players. The players know now that they can get away with lots of stuff the old refs would call immediatly. Good example is the blatant foul on Jennings in the 2nd half. Never saw Jennings so out of his mind, and he is such an easy guy all around.
McCarthy ones again did an awful job adjusting on the fly when things didn't work as designed. They needed the halftime to change the offense into a more balanced attack, and everyone in this forum would have known that you have to run the ball against Seattle first and then go to the pass. Just watch their first two games. Everybody sees it. Only McC and his stuff thought they could be the wise-a** and do what they want.
The Packers lost a football game (and some players probably lost a lot of money thorugh fines coming), but if they don't adjust to the current situation in the NFL they wont make the playoffs this year, period.

No. Not even close. I've seen close calls that could have gone one way or the other. I've seen blown calls where a whistle blew early. I've seen clock errors, phantom penalties, and obscure rules that have changed the course of a game.

I have NEVER seen a call as bad as this.

I could live with the simultaneous catch ruling if it had been close. It was not.

FOUR egregious bad calls on the final drive. It's hard to believe that there was no intent by certain refs to benefit the home team. No one can be that incompetent. Seahawks ownership should do the right thing and forfeit the win. Even if the league does not accept it, it would be the classy thing to do.

Sick.

page 7, note 1 Pass interference. Shields has the position for ball.

Double sick.

Without losing money or attenance the owners won't really care. I wonder how long it will be before a player sues the NFL for missing contract performance bonuses from the impact the refs have on the game. Can you imagine MD missing a bonus by 1 interception.

Many people want to complain about the offense. I agree too their offense hasn't been as good. But like the 49ers game, how can WR's get open when they are constantly being held, and interfered with? Just like the 49ers game. there is a reason why the Receivers don't get open and that is due to the replacement refs not calling pass interference, illegal contact, holding correctly. DB's know what they can get away with, and now they are going to hit receivers until they get called for it.

Regarding post game interviews: Wilson was maybe 40 yards away from the end zone; how was he supposed to know the white hat ref had made a mistake? Same thing applies for Pete Carrol (but not for Golden Tate.)
Fact is, we all expect and rely on the officials to make the right call. Sadly, that didn't happen last night.

Memo to all D Coordinators - tell your DB's to use "whatever" means possible to dislodge the ball, as the Ref's are not going to make the call.

Yo know its being discussed at all 32 teams.

Wait until this Sunday. 24 flags for 245 yards will seem like nothing.

Beyond just bitching on message boards, I would LOVE to see Packers fans do something next week in protest.

1) Maybe have all the fans wear black next week at Lambeau, a funeral for the NFL's integrity.

2) Have all the NYC Packer fans protest at the NFL offices on Park Ave (I'd show up).

3) Order pizzas (extra cheese) to Goddell's office for the rest of the season.

Any other thoughts?????

Ok, so the calls sucked. If the players don't like the refs, try taking control of the game sooner and not leaving it up to them. Stop putting the defense in this position time after time. Score more points. A field goal would have sealed it. 12 for this offense is pitiful.
MM promised the O would improve. Where, how? Or is this O no longer elite against physical defenses?
Next opportunity, get Datko off the practice squad.
