National Football League [NFL]
reviews and complaints

The first play of the game was a fumble recovered by the Eagles. Instead the officials gave dallas the ball. Later in the game they called offensive pass interference on Dallas Goddard (Eagles) and negated a touchdown. The officials in this game were lousy but this 2 calls changed the outcome of the game. All of the officials in this game should be FIRED. It's obvious that they favored the cowboys and the nfl wants to help them but this is dishonest and now the Eagles are going to miss the playoffs because of bad officials. I knew football was fixed this just proves it. I will never watch another football game an hope more people follow this game was pathetic! P.S. Jason garret was shown shaking all the officials hands after the game Disgusting!

I ordered a gift card for my son in law for Christmas from N.F.L. Official Shop Website and was charged by credit card but never received it. I have called them 10 different times and have been told 10 different lies. I am so embarrassed because I have told my daughter and son-in-law all these delivery dates and I just know they think I am lying. There is no one to call or write to complain about this I have came to found out. Something after the fact told me to go to Google to see if there was someone to reach out to but what I found was all these complaints about fraud and folks experiencing the same with no where to turn. You know what makes me so angry is that the N.F.L. is aware that this site is up and involved in these activities using their name but there is nothing they can do about it. I don't know what to do. I have the most talented, loving, respectful, smart kind hearted son in law in life. He is the best dad to my grandsons and best husband to my daughter, I just want to shout it from the rooftops. And my Christmas gift to him is never arriving because people choose to work for a fake company and take others money with no regard. What am I going to do?

Congratulations nfl you finally got what you wanted... You finally took all the defense out of football! The stupid penalties the defenses get for what are actually clean tackles are absurd... Stop with the rule changes already... Football is a contact sport... If the primadona quarterbacks can't handle getting hit then they should find another job! You have already pissed off most of the fans by not dealing with the idiots who are kneeling... Do you really want to alienate the rest of them by taking half of the game away with the penalties for tackling, if we wanted to watch quarterbacks and wide receivers play catch untouched we would just watch the quarterback challenges! You and your idiotic rules are destroying the game. Whatever happened to real football, when it was actually fun to watch. Now it is just plain boring and the player stats are nothing more than an insult to the real players of yesterday... You know... The ones who actually earned them! If you need proof look at the rams - chiefs game... Those scores are completely ridiculous.. There is a reason why in 52 years it has never happened before... It's called defense!

I ordered several items last week after seeing a 20 % plus shipping sale on the NFLShop. So far I have only received one item I purchased and after I spoke with customer service I was told that they have no time frame when the rest will ship. I'm not understanding cause they have the same sale going on and all the items I purchased are in stock saying ships within one day. Now after complaining I keep getting the run around and emails saying ... Thank you for shopping with us. We know how excited you are to receive your merchandise. We are still working on a shipping update for order. I just would like the items I purchased in a timely manner, within reason, even a logical reason would be appreciated.

i am growing tired of the friggin NFL advertisements on my prime video screen. I block the damn element only for it to be right the flip back when i reload the page or refresh .I WANT THIS TRASH TO BE ABLE TO BE BLOCKED FROM MY VIEW PERMANENTLY.screw your terms of service and whatever you wish to waggle in my face .MAKE IT HAPPEN or i am gone.This is totally unacceptable and i would like it dealt with.

Why is illegal use of hands or illegal contact down field called on players that are on the complete opposite side of the field away from where the ball is thrown? The same penalties generally go uncalled when they're committed against the player to which the ball is being thrown to but the ball is deemed un-catchable!

Why sometimes a defensive player jumps across the line and gets back and no penalty is called and then other times it is called encroachment!?

Why is the illegal "pick play" in which receivers criss cross in order set a pick on the defensive player never ever called? However, when the outside reciever is literally one step up making him technically on the line or one step back making him in the back field making to many on the line or in the backfield causing illegal formation we get that call as if a team gained any advantage whatsoever?

Why are so many of the defensive penalties automatic first downs?

When the ball is punted and its not caught by the recieving team and the punting team watches the ball hit the ground and roll then they simply touch it and it's a dead ball. When the same punt lands inside the 10 or 5 yrd line the punting team can't just touch the ball they have to have possession of the ball?

It takes a lot of air out of you when there are so many flags on the field. In watching the Broncos vs. Chiefs 3-20+ yard players were brought back on penalties, penalties that shouldn't have been called. They called shaq barrette for a roughing the passer penalty for bumping a young mahomes when later in the game on a sack a 300+ pound defensive tackler brought his full weight down on Keenum without a flag. Let's make it fair, either call them or don't. Ed hockley being in my opinion the best ref in NFL history's son has botched this game. You have become so soft it's hard to continue to be an NFL fan.

QB Dak Prescott is already in a sliding motion going out of bounds, giving up on the play as #37 of the Washington Redskins is in a stopped motion but clearly initiates unnecessary and illigeal contact by leaning down his left shoulder causing direct contact to the head of QB Dak Prescott (whom again) is giving up on the play going out of bounds. A personal foul penalty should have been called in accordance to the NFL rules.

It was a offside on defense and got called on the cowboys and got cheated on the field goal and the whole game was like the refs was on redskins team the whole game look into this officials should be calling game equally and fair. This refs shouldn't be in the game if one of the teams is his favorite team because the calls start being just on the other team

Do you realize that you're basically punishing burfict for plays that just 8 years ago were shown as "hard nose football"? Ray Lewis made the same plays with NO fines or suspension and is in the HOF. I honestly think that the NFL is rigged and uses the officials to enforce a win. There are multiple calls by officials in key situations that have changed the game in favor of the larger market team. You want to talk about why you're losing viewers, it's because you're rigging games and punishing players for no reason.

Another horrific call in the Giant-Panther game with 14 minutes left in the 4th quarter. Three Giant defenders diving for the ball on a pass play. One Panther diving to catch the ball. Perfect defense. Absurd call for hitting defense less receiver. Giving them the first down which then led to a touchdown. How many bad calls can refs make? Every year there are numerous horrible calls. When will fans have a consumer advocate to do something about this? It is painful enough to watch your team lose, but to watch these refs just take over a close game with such a horrible call is downright depressing. It is time for ALL fans (because we all get screwed on these calls sooner or later) to demand that a consumer advocate be appointed. And that FANS choose the advocate. The NFL obviously can't provide us with quality refereeing. NFL fans unite!

If ever there were questions regarding officiating neutrality in nfl games I think the MNF between the Chiefs and Broncos showed that there are some zebras in someone's back pocket. Three major non-calls swung the momentum of the game to the Chiefs: The obvious pass by Mahomes beyond the line of scrimmage; the lowered head by Hunt on Simmons; the expired play clock that allowed Mahomes more time than should have been allowed to run a play...all these just stink to high heaven and bring the subject of honesty in officiating to the fore.
If these officials are not reprimanded then it will be obvious to all that the NFL is not a sport, but a money driven fixed system.
Just another reason to turn off the games and enjoy something more satisfying.

The NFL has finally found a legal way to control the outcome of a game. With the new rules they have created a team of totally inept old men that are ruining the game. I don't know how others feel, but I'm personally done spending my Sunday afternoons watching yellow flags every other play. They are indeed ruining the game of football and turning it into "patti cake, patti cake." We all know that there is offensive holding in the line on every play. Now they are calling it many times a game. They have no idea how to judge defensive pass interference and are totally inconsistent on when it should be called. The NFL site states that 'these guys are really good." these guys are pathetic.

Good bye NFL football and gutless Roger!

The new rule that further protects the quarterback from tackles and/or sacks is completely horrible. I'm from Chicago and watched the Redskins-Packers game today (September 23). The sack that Clay Mathews had on Alex Smith was COMPLETELY legal: he didn't hit helmet to helmet, he didn't go for the knees, etc. It was a good legal football tackle...AND I'm not a Mathews fan, either.

If the officials are going to continue to flag those kinds of plays, we are no longer watching football. It will be closer to flag football than real football.

I completely understand the desire to protect the quarterback...I do. But the line has been crossed (actually crushed) between protecting the quarterback and keeping the game that Americans love pure.

The calls on the Packer/Redskin game are ridiculous. The call on Mathews for the Packers on the penalty to the quarterback is now becoming biased. They have singled him out twice now for a call that is wrong. Mathews clearly tackled/sacked the quarterback but yet gets penalized. Watch the play and you see the tackle is clean and the quarterback is a player, right?. Mathews got singled out last week also for the same thing when it too was a clean play. These refs and the league better get their act together and let the players play. I thought the quarterback is a player and should be able to be tackled like any other player. Making these calls have now made football look like a [censored] sport and I and others have refuse to watch anymore. How about getting the officiating board to fix these rules.

The officiating for the NFL games on the weekend of 9/16 was atrocious. The ruffing the quarterback call on Clay Mathews decided the outcome of the game for the Packer /Viking game and it was not the only terrible call on Sunday. These guys don't know when to make a good call because of all the new dumb rules. There;s holding on almost every play in the line. The defensive pass interference is as inconsistent as there is. And the bottom line is there are so many penalties, they are ruining the game.
Sorry Zebras, you stink.

This is the worse rule change the nfl has ever done! Not only does it change whole game. It puts every game winner in the hands of the referee s. .. EVERY GAME! The nfl fans are not going to put up with this change.just thimk about everytime the running back runs ..Its a penalty!? Not Good...like i say the referees are in whole control of all games..i see either a change or start seeing fans get very loud b4 they leave all togeather..Sad Days for NFL Fans...

Buffalo/New England. Buffalo touchdo reversal. Well, I guess this time the receiver with an obvious touchdown once again failed to survive the replay call! Apparently, the league needs to schedule eye exams for the New York replay officials. I think that perhaps Mr. Magoo may have been involved in that rediculous overturning of the officials correct call. You need to get it together!

On december 17 a crime was committed during the steelers patriots game. The no catch rule.. This is 3 times that I count that this rule has favored the patriots in houston game, jet game and steeler game.. Why was there no pass interference on patriots during interception? How come patriots had only 1 penalty for 4 yards? I referee football for years. There was holding on offensive line, and on pittsburgh receiver the whole. How do u miss these during a 60 minute game? Oh.. Thats right.. U want patriots to win.. Fans are disgusted.. This will only get worse for nfl. Because they will continue to favor patriots. This is not right.. I as a fan am disgusted with the nfl favoritism towards patriots going back to spygate.. How come all the information was destroyed? Someone needs to look into this..

It is a disgrace to the game of football when a simple call on a Touchdown catch is overuled by the refs.I am not even a Steelers fan but that overturning of a perfectly good catch at the goal line is a disgrace to the NFL and the fans.In 45 years of watching NFL games I have never seen a more damaging and wrong call to a more important game than this.The ball was yes a catch, and then extended over the goal line for a Touchdown once the ball is extended over the line it doesnt matter what happens after it is a Touchdown.The ramifications of a call like that warrant a investigation of that and a possible reversal by the front offices of the call! It was one of the worst calls in NFL history if not the worst that cheated a team and the fans of what seems to be a gift to a team that really lost the game period.Again, the integrity of the game is on the line and they blew it or gifted that call to the Patriots what else could that be?That game should be under investigation.The Steelers clearly won that game and for some reason someone didnt want that to happen.What a joke and I am not even a steelers fan.Wake up NFL cheating is not allowed and thats what I saw plain as day ! Now is the time to show some integrity and investigate that blown call when another teams touchdown lets the other team win you have a real problem.
