I sure could see the ref's first game as a ref in the NFL had its effects on the crew. I certainly don't blame them; I know I would have been as nervous as anyone. After that start, though, they settled in and did a nice job. Funny, but now I watch games on Sunday to see the officials, not only the teams.

The white hat on that game was Peter Morelli. It was his first regular season game. I think his crew did a great job. I was impressed with the close goaline play and how they came together to discuss a play and GET IT RIGHT!
congrats to Pete and his crew on this first regular season game.. I hope to see him still working in January!
