Week 10…Bears – Lions game has been “flexed” from NOON to 3:15 at Soldier Field in Chicago…media reports
I hope Jeff Triplette has the DET @ CHI game…he has yet to officiate a game involving either Chicago or Detroit this season.
Walt Anderson will be in Philadelphia this week.
McAulay is in Atlanta this week
They’re happy in BAL about the win over PIT, but it’s time to turn the page… who’s eligible for BAL-SEA?
Blakeman, Leavy, Green, Anderson, Winter, Riveron, Morelli, Boger, Parry, and Hochuli.
Hochuli’s the longshot.
My guess is Ron Winter for the BAL- SEA game. I think they will hold out Hochuli or Morelli for the San Fran.game on Thanksgiving night
Pencil in Winter. Can’t let the Ravens get too far ahead in the division.
Winter did the Ravens’ fourth preseason game, but if I recall, that doesn’t really count, right?
Would like to see Leavy get it because he has not worked at Seattle since 2003. He did Seattle at Pittsburgh game week 2.
I think Leavy purposely isn’t assigned to games in Seattle after Super Bowl XL.
Parry had a west coast game (DEN-OAK) this past weekend. Would think they might try to avoid giving him 2 long trips out west in a row
Eligibles and guesses for Oakland @ San Diego?
Ed Hochuli has the San Diego game on Thursday.
This would be Hochuli’s first regular game in San Diego since 2006
And only his second SD game since Whistlegate in Denver correct?
Thanks, Nita.
Preth, glad to hear you’re helping out Mickey… best of luck!
I heard that Umpire Rich Hall is with Blakeman this weekend.. is Umpire Garth Defelice(who lives in San Diego) on Ed Hochuli’s crew Thursday night NFLN(tonight)?
I hope Winter has the Ravens-Seahawks game. Better that game as opposed to one that will be tougher to overcome his inevitable bad calls.
So true. Get him out of the way on a bad game.
Mike Carey has yet to do a west coast game. The furthest west that he has worked is yesterday in Indianapolis
After further review the furthest west that Carey has worked is Chicago (GB-CHI week 3) not indianapolis
It seems like the NFL has done a better job this year in have refs work at sites that they have not worked at in a long time.
Walt Coleman has the call for Titans- Panthers.
Per/ Titans press release
Thanks, David.
Hi Mickey:
This week Carl Cheffers’ crew in Sun Life Stadium (Washington @ Miami)
In Dallas: Jerome Boger
UVflxu tacwkcpslpip
Ron Winter sucks at life. just hoping he doesn’t get a Green Bay game this year.
I love Ron Winter. Haters leave.
Tony, have you actually ever watched him ref a game? he is by far the worst official!
I’ve watched every official. Alberto Riveron is the worst by a mile!
In New York: Gene Steratore
Would they give him 2 SNF games in 3 weeks?
It’s not unprecedented.
Big East basketball time again !!! Gene in New York !!!
Hold your laughter, Preth, but the flip card says Bill Leavy has Steelers at Bengals this week.
I tried. It didn’t go so well… 🙂
He is eligible this time, though. If you notice it change later in the week, let me know. Thanks!
whose eligible for the chiefs game?
As of right now:
Green, Carey, Corrente, Winter, Morelli.
Well, remove Green and Morelli from the list.
Whose working the Minnesota vs green bay game this mon night?
We might not know that one until Monday morning. Be patient.
this is MNF? why have 75% of the SNF and MNF games been 1 or 2 dreadful teams? So tired of GB games too. We get it, they won the super bowl
Kenneth, you sound a bit bitter. per NFL rules you are only allowed 3 games on NBC which GB has only played 2 and this is their first MNF game and only one.
not talking only prime time games, my regional games have given me GB 3 times in the first 9 weeks as well as their two SNF. Five times in 9 weeks, and 6 in 10 is a lot, especially considering I live no where near GB territory.
One of those Sunday Night games was actually a Thursday Night-the opener-but I know what you meant.
On another note, How the hell did Jacksonville get 2 home MNF Games this year !!! ??? So next year should we expect to see Cincinnati on 2 times when they go back to their 4-12 season ??? Do you ever think the Ravens will ever have a HOME MNF GAME !!!
A MNF game is a MNF game. Does it really make a difference, whether or not it’s at home?
Yes it does matter if it’s home or not !!! When your team gets home at 5am and has a short week to prepare for the next game, i think that is a big deal !!! As a season ticket holder I would also like to attend it at the sametime !!! We don’t put black covers over our upper deck seats either to have sellouts !!!
Everybody who plays TNF has an even shorter week, regardless of whether they play it home or away.
That is so true about TNF games. In a couple of weeks ask the 49ers how they are going to be feeling after flying across country 3000 miles to play on Thanksgiving night. The NFL did them no favors this season !!! They have been to the east coast more than they have been on the west coast !!! The NFL couldn’t have had them play in Washington the Sunday before Thanksgiving and have them stay 40 miles away instead of crossing the country again before this game ? How fair is that ?
The NFL should give the 3 Thanksgiving road teams their bye the sunday before Thanksgiving and give the fourth bye on that sunday to whomever.
It would be interesting to see if the NFL gives Indy any primetime appearances next year assuming that Manning comes back. I bet they will.
Adding on to my comment about thankgiving byes, why not give all six teams the week off before thanksgiving
I would think they would get at least a Thursday night game. I don’t think you could give the Thursday teams a bye the week before, but you can give them all home games. They are off 10 days after they play on Thursdays which amounts to an extra bye anyway.
They’ve had 5 at home but not since ’07
That comment was in response to david saying the Ravens haven’t had a MNF game. I hit reply under the comment but for some reason it’s further down on the page.
Eh-I meant to say HOME MNF game as far as the Ravens.
Brad Biggs of Chicago Tribune says Pete Morelli for DET @ CHI.
http://twitter.com/#!/BradBiggs/status/134047189705043968
Thanks as always.
This is the 3rd time in 5 years that Pete Morelli will officiate the DET @ CHI game in the Windy City.
Wow, it’s filling up quick this week! Based on all your comments, it’s down to Parry and Winter for Seattle… I’ll find out Wed. morning if no one else does before then…
Preth, Mickey and crew…
Another Baltimore drum roll, for, according to the team, Sunday’s ref in Seattle is … SCOTT GREEN! Don’t know why I went caps lock on that, guess I’m surprised it wasn’t Winter… you may begin unloading…. NOW!
Well, I did say that of the eligible crews, only Hochuli was a longshot… 🙂
Thanks, Joe.
Joe, I think we will see Winter next week !!!
Anderson
McAulay
Morelli
Take Anderson off the list.
Second time Green will work a Ravens game at an NFC West site this year. He also worked Ravens@Rams in week 3.
Wow…clearly saving Winter for one of the Bengals games…or maybe the road prime time game in SD? He gets juiced up to screw the Ravens in road prime timers, so there’s my guess.
That is a very good guess !!!
Clete Blakeman
Rams VS Browns
@Bill Please leave this off of this website. As for negative remarks to other people posting on this site. I hope Mickey responds and will not allow this to happen.
I have been actively moderating comments since I started assisting Mickey at the beginning of the week. I’m letting people express their opinions, including negatives, but only so long as they meet certain guidelines. Most importantly, that they stay civil, as EDOGG did this afternoon.
any guesses and/or refs eligible for giants@niners?
corrente, riveron and parry. i’m hoping parry, as i’ll get to see my 49ers back to back weeks for the first time ever (not counting when i go to bars, or primetime games)…
Triplette, too.
is there no rule for having the same team twice at home anymore? Triplette had Sea@SF week 1…
There was no such rule last season, at least.
In Kansas City: Ron Winter
It’s a shame he can’t have Kansas City games every week.
So that leaves Mike Carey, Tony Corrente, John Parry, Alberto Riveron and Jeff Triplette.
Triplette has been better this year. Winter has surpassed him as the worst referee in the NFL. Only a matter of time before Baltimore gets Wintered.
Who is the ref for the 49ers game?
oh no. hochuli in san diego. guess i will watch the game from inside of a hole and hope he does not repeat “whistlegate”
BILL LEAVY BEST REF
Does anyone know why all the teams play this week and then there is a bye the following week. I guess you can call this a bye for the bye week lol
It’s a unique scheduling situation that was caused by the lockout. A recent article on it:
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/11/08/unusual-bye-format-traces-to-lockout/
interesting article thanks Preth
lol James. I love that it’s a verb now getting Wintered. he is definitely awful and I’m glad he hasn’t done a GB game since Buffalo last year. that’s over 27 consecutive weeks actually.
HOU@TB: You can scratch off Tony Corrente – he did the CHI/TB game in London in Week 8; NYG@SF: Scratch off Mike Carey – he did the SF/DET game in Week 6.
JAC@IND: Once again, Mike Carey can be ruled out of this game, since he did the ATL/IND game last week. Also scratch off Alberto Riveron and John Parry, since the former did the CIN/JAC game in Week 5, and the latter did the IND/CIN game the following week.
So, by the process of elimination, I guess this means Tony Corrente will be in Indianapolis for the Jaguars-Colts game.
Jeff Triplette is the other possibility.
Here’s are the unofficial possibilities
JAX @ IND – Corrente or Triplette
HOU @ TB – Carey, Parry or Triplette
NYG @ SF – Corrente, Parry, Riveron or Triplette
MIN @ GB – Carey, Corrente, Parry or Riveron
OFF – Carey, Riveron or Triplette
1130pm CST No further news I guess on 3 remaining games I guess
Its only guessing on my part but Riveron will not have the Monday Night game he worked just 2 weeks ago with Kc/SD So my idea is The Ref for Indy is gonna be Tripplete The Ref in Tb is gonna be Carey The Ref in Sf will be Parry and the Monday Night ref is Corrente which lead me to say Riveron has the Off week Folks this is only a GUESS i have NO NO NO facts 🙂
my prediction:
Houston@Tampa Bay – Triplette
Jacksonville @Indy – Corrente
Giants@ SF – Riveron
Minnesota@GB – Parry
Carey having off
New York Giants@San Francisco 49’ers will be Corrente
hi sandra is this confirmed?
From a reliable friend who knows his schedule
hooray corrente! no riveron for the 49ers!
So Corrente looks goods for a Niners win ?
Thank you for this. If there’s any chance you could assist us with Corrente assignments going forward, we’d really appreciate it.
My apologies if anyone’s commented on this already and I know it doesn’t have anything to do with referees but does anyone know why there are no teams having byes this week yet next week there are again?, and then they end. That’s never happened before. My only guess is that the league wanted everyone to play on Veterans Day weekend, or the night before.
The schedule was tweaked quite a bit so that a lockout extending into the season could allow the season to be rejiggered while staying competitively balanced. Teams that played in Week 3 all share the same bye week, so they would play their Week 3 game in the scheduled bye if needed. Probably the only way to work that, logistically, was to have a no-bye week when it wasn’t normally placed.
Oh I see that others have commented on it but thanks for answering that. Now it makes more sense.
Zebra Blog –
I don’t think your site is safe from viruses and malware. I clicked on and it takes me to some page where they check for viruses when I have Macafee to protect my computer. Could you please look into this?
Thank you.
Triplette in Indy:
http://blogs.indystar.com/philb/2011/11/13/colts-jaguars-in-game-analysis/
John parry in Tampa so it leaves Mike Carey by default in Green Bay.
Al Riveron is eligible for the MIN-GB game. However, it should be safe to put Carey there – Riveron’s umpire is working with Walt Anderson, thus implying he has the off week.
Is Carey in Tb??
No, it was Parry
Corrente in SF
Why does Terry McAulay always have to be the center of attention? I understand he is always rated as one of the better NFL referees each year; however, he doesn’t come into the spotlight until there is a huge call and he has to overturn it. Awful instant replay call by McAulay in overtime. No way that is indisputable evidence. Look up the definition. No way.
Mike Pereira, via his Twitter feed, agrees with the call. I did not see the play personally, but Pereira – the former VP of NFL officiating – knows his stuff.
I was rooting for Atlanta and agreed with the call.
Mike Carey confirmed in Green Bay tonight.
Ahaa, its good dialogue regarding this post at this place at this website, I have read all that,
so at this time me also commenting at this place.
