I still think the problem is more the rules than the refs.

College refs are worse than NFL refs and yet big time college games are usually much less impacted by the officiating.

Look at the Michigan vs OSU game - the officiating was so much better in that game compared to the average NFL game from a viewer standpoint.

I vastly prefer how DBs are officiated in the NCAA - there are far less ticky tack DPIs and holds.

Football is just an impossible sport to officiate well, especially at the speed of the pro game. Even if refs don’t miss a single obvious call, there will be plenty of borderline calls for people to complain about that are just a subjective decision.

Came here to say this. It is the rules and the ever increasing rules that don’t let people actually play the game. DPI is very “all over the place”. Same thing with roughing the QB.
