Petition to remove Ed Hochuli and Officiating Crew from future NFL Games
Let me preface this by saying that I DID NOT WRITE THIS, so before you start slinging the arrows at me, I'm just the messenger. This was started over on GTP. The worst part is that after the game, Hochuli came up to Norv and stated, "I blew the call." He even admits to screwing it up! Please sign this if you want action take against the officials.

LOL. Considering that Hochuli and his crew are usually the best the NFL has to offer, whoever made this petition is an absolute moron.
I didn't know that equipment failure was the fault of referees. |

How many refs in professional sports have botched things that decided the end of a game. I can think of more than a few times just off the top of my head. People make mistakes, Hochuli is one of the best around. At least he was man enough to admit he made a mistake and take the punishment. Should be an example to the usual dodgers and duckers out there. |

Re: Petition to remove Ed Hochuli and Officiating Crew from future NFL Games
The guy is one of the most respected officials in the game, he blew a call, it sucks, but it happens.. I have a hard time believing they are going to find anyone better out there to replace him with.
Tell the guys at GTP, to stop embarrassing the rest of the Charger fans with this nonsense. Time to let it go and move on. |

I wouldn't mess with Ed Hochuli. I'm pretty sure he could kick the s**t out of half of the players in the NFL.

Re: Petition to remove Ed Hochuli and Officiating Crew from future NFL Games
Refs just need to be more cluey on when to blow a whistle and when not to. If something is even close to being a fumble, then it should be ruled a fumble and it should be up to the offense to overturn it, not the other way around. If the offense doesn't like it, simple - do a better job of hanging onto the football until the whistle does actually blow.
Same deal for borderline catches/drops. If it isn't easily without a doubt a catch, then rule it a drop. Stop giving offenses the benefit of the doubt and force them to prove it was a catch. After all, it was their fault it wasn't brought in more cleanly, force them to prove it was a catch and not the defense to prove it wasn't. |

terrible crew
ive been weary of Hocuili for a while. Every time I see him on the field for a Cowboys game, i let out an "aw ****ing ****" Beware of celebrity officials that want to be a part of the "show". You can bet that if he is officiating a game, there is going to be a lot of laundry on the field. Officials like him are the biggest negative in the game, slighty ahead of too many commercials. |
