Another Referee decided game

 Here we go again, yet another big NFL game (Colts Chargers Playoff) decided by the referees. It forces me to become less and less a fan with the consistancy of the most obvious, pre-decided games by the referees in the NFL. Even Al Michaels had the nerve to mention "Sweet Justice" for the Charger fans. We all know that the Chargers game 2 of the season was blown by Ed Hochuli, but at least he had the good sense to admit he blew that call. The Ron Winter crew was disgustingly obvious with all the ONE SIDED calls. I'm as fed up as I can be with this behavior, and it makes me wonder that NBC may have been in on it as well. You start to become suspicious when a network, run by an Anti Christ, Jeffrey R. Immelt (GM CEO), that sells his soul to make deals with the Terroists in Iran, which  preaches anti Christian Religion. Thus, they would not be able to bear hearing Jim Irsay, or Tony Dungy thanking God for the opportunity and  for the possibility of winning the Super Bowl on their Network. Although this may not be the case, be sure that the NFL refs do indeed decide outcomes of NFL games. After all, the Seattle Seahawks did get hosed in the Super Bowl against the Steelers. No doubt, evenly called, the Seahawks win that game. Bottom line is, it does make one wonder about the real integrity of the NFL referees.

Come on

the refs did not decide this game. Did there calls affect the outcome? sure. But in the end we made the mistakes, we could have iced this game, and we were lacking in some key phases of the game. This was our loss.

if we got the calls then we would win and the chargers fans would be saying the same things as us right now so dont blame it on the refs we lossed the game they just got the calls this time

Do you really have to bring

religion into a reason why they lost? Seriously?

Let's be bigger than our rivals

Agreed that some calls were questionable and/or came at really really bad times, but we should have been able to avoid the position in the first place that those calls would turn the tide.

Ignorant

The Colts lost this game, no screw jobs or conspiracies.

And why in the blue hell would religion have ANYTHING to do with anything?

the holding call hurt

But the Colts had multiple opportunity’s to put that game away. It wasn’t the refs it wasn’t being able to convert on 3rd and short with game on the line… And that damn punter

i don't get it.

NBC can’t really be anti-Dungy because he’s Christian, right?

i mean, isn’t this the same network that continues to pony up money to put America’s most famous Catholic institution’s crappy football team on-the-air each week?
