Walt Anderson is in New England.

Walt Coleman is in New Orleans for Bears/Saints.

Thomas September 12, 2011 at 3:18 pm

Oh oh.. Bill Leavy will be in Pittsburgh on Sunday.. Seahawks @ Steelers

Reply

Preth September 12, 2011 at 3:31 pm

I don’t think you should put this one down, Mickey – at least not yet. It’s unlikely they’d have Leavy work a Seahawks game just five years after that Super Bowl, and pretty much impossible they’d put him in SEA-PIT.

12th Man September 12, 2011 at 4:05 pm

It’s true according to Danny O’Neil of the Seattle Times. Leavy is in Pittsburgh for Seahawks /Steelers

Preth September 12, 2011 at 4:28 pm

Hm. How about that? Thank you for the source.

I withdraw my previous comment. Pretty surprising, this is.

Thanks for the info!

Titans release just landed in my E-Mail…

We get Clete Blakeman for BAL/TEN

Reply

mickey September 12, 2011 at 7:03 pm

He’s on there now. Thanks!

Reply

Joe Platania September 13, 2011 at 12:33 am

Clete Blakeman’s first-ever Ravens game as a referee, so no frame of reference here. Last week, it was Corrente, who also didn’t do BAL last year…

Reply

Gerry September 13, 2011 at 11:05 pm

Corrente’s first game in Baltimore since 2007

Hi Mickey:
Next S.N.F in Atlanta will be officiated by the Carl Cheffers’ Crew
(Philadelphia Eagles @ Atlanta Falcons, Sept. 18)

Reply

Gerry September 13, 2011 at 11:06 pm

This will be Cheffer’s first regular season game ever in Atlanta

Mike Carey will be at Mile High this weekend for CIN @ DEN.

Reply

bill September 17, 2011 at 11:39 am

WRONG

Reply

Avi September 19, 2011 at 12:53 am

It’s now called Sports Authority Field-Broncos left Mile High Stadium after the 2000 season though until recently their stadium was called Invesco Field at Mile High.

Reply

Preth September 14, 2011 at 11:55 am

Confirmed:

Terry McAulay for Giants – Rams.

Reply

Preth September 14, 2011 at 2:58 pm

Also confirmed:

Mike Carey has Raiders@Bills, not Bengals@Broncos.

Reply

Mike September 17, 2011 at 5:49 pm

My fault. I;m terribly sorry.

Reply

Scott September 14, 2011 at 4:07 pm

Hi all…per the Bengals beat writer it will be Ed Hochuli for Bengals-Broncos.

Reply

Nita September 14, 2011 at 4:36 pm

You have carey in Denver this Sun but I just talked to Eds Hochuli informant and Ed is to be in Denver his week.

Reply

bill September 14, 2011 at 9:26 pm

Cant read the thread above nita brain?

Reply

mike September 14, 2011 at 7:17 pm

Parry or Triplette or do we go to the wire again?

Reply

Preth September 14, 2011 at 7:23 pm

Patience – at least four of the remaining games ought to be filled in by Friday.

Reply

Preth September 15, 2011 at 5:13 pm

The only remaining game with a very high probability of finding an assignment ahead of time is Texans-Dolphins, as Miami has a tendency to make its information public. And oddly enough, neither Parry nor Triplette has been placed ahead of time.

It’s a pretty safe bet that Parry has one of the remaining games, because he was off last week. Maybe Triplette has a week off this time.

David September 15, 2011 at 9:26 am

Who’s refereeing the Packers-Panthers game?

Reply

Preth September 15, 2011 at 9:36 am

Riveron.

Reply

Preth September 15, 2011 at 9:36 am

Confirmed:

Alberto Riveron has Packers@Panthers.

Reply

Preth September 15, 2011 at 1:16 pm

Confirmed:

Tony Corrente has Chiefs @ Lions.

Reply

Gerry September 15, 2011 at 8:54 pm

Corrente’s first game in Detroit since 2007

Reply

Preth September 15, 2011 at 5:09 pm

Confirmed:

Pete Morelli has Cardinals @ Redskins.

Reply

Marty September 15, 2011 at 8:48 pm

Some of the crews listed are incorrect. On Tony Correntees crew the FJ is Gary Cavelletto. Not sure if we have updated any crew changes this year. Geat job by everyone posting!

Reply

Jake September 15, 2011 at 8:56 pm

Mikey knows the Crews are incorrect. He will get to them when he can. I notified him before the Preseason started.

Reply

Mark September 15, 2011 at 9:08 pm

Also…Walt Anderson’s HL is now Steve Stelljes, FYI.

Reply

Gerry September 15, 2011 at 9:05 pm

Here is a list of refs along with the sites where
they have never officated a regular season game. I left out Clete Blakeman because this is only his second year.

Boger : Chicago – St Louis
Cheffers : Atlanta – Carolina- New Orleans- Jacksonville
Corrente : New York Jets
Green : San Francisco
Parry : Chicago- Green Bay – Denver
Riveron : Buffalo – Cleveland – Tennessee- San Diego
Steratore : Denver

Gerry September 15, 2011 at 9:20 pm

Does that not count preseason in case someone might have been in that stadium then?

Reply

Gerry September 19, 2011 at 3:49 pm

Just REGULAR SEASON GAMES Avi. They may have done a playoff game.

Reply

Bill September 16, 2011 at 6:20 am

Ugh. As an Eagles fan I’ve been dreading the week Carl Cheffers refs the game, and it comes this week! Worst ref in football. Completely useless. At least we get it done early.

Reply

Preth September 16, 2011 at 9:49 am

Just keep in mind that it’s possible to get a referee twice. If your Eagles are getting Cheffers early, a second appointment is a strong possibility…

Reply

Paul September 17, 2011 at 6:04 pm

You think Cheffers is the worst? I guess everyone has someone; I think Ron Winter owns the low berth, but has to periodically fight off Walt Coleman to keep it.

Reply

Mike September 16, 2011 at 1:15 pm

John Parry for Miami-Houston. Texans twitter account posted the flipcard.

Reply

Preth September 16, 2011 at 1:46 pm
Tee September 16, 2011 at 3:51 pm

Is Boger off this week?

Reply

Shane Spencer September 19, 2011 at 8:08 pm

Yes.

Reply

Kaddy September 16, 2011 at 8:01 pm

Comes down to Steratore, Green, Triplette, and Boger for the final 3 spots. Pretty safe to say Boger has this week off since he did the Monday night game.

Reply

Preth September 16, 2011 at 8:15 pm

Last season, the official who worked MNF had the next week off about 50% of the time. It’s certainly a trend, but I’d hardly call it pretty safe to say.

Reply

Biffer September 18, 2011 at 8:56 am

Steratore has Cleveland/Indy today.

Reply

Rich Kalahiki September 18, 2011 at 11:53 am

bfurze September 18, 2011 at 12:05 pm

#82, Buddy Horton, is not the Field Judge on Mike Carey’s crew this year. That would be #50, Mike Weir.

Mickey, this page needs to be updated, OK?
