Had a fight. Gee I thought this was about a professional football game between the Raiders and the Browns. A game to be officiated cleanly and as evenly possible by the NFL officials? What I saw was retaliation by these so called officials! Sure looked to me like the Browns were getting away with murder and throwing some cheap shots at the Raiders and Seymour and Co. had enough and blew thier lids! It's not like the Raiders were being protected by the officials or anything like that. We all know that score. Alot of chatter between the Raiders and the officials also.
Call it lack of poise or professionalism all you want by the players, but I have been waiting for some kind of blow up and it appeared today. The officials had proven that they are just as unprofessional as anyone else. They retaliated pure and simple on the Raiders when it was them who allowed one team, the Browns, to play in the manner that they got away with...It's been going on all year period. Something has got to give at some point.
You add in poor execution by the Raiders. Some questionable play calls in certain situations by the coaching staff and it's a disaster no doubt. BUT this team has heart and did not give up! As terrible and horrendous it is to lose to the Browns, the Raiders not only took on the Browns, but the officials as well. It will be interesting to hear from Cable and the Players after this one...
