Any official who goes to the NFL now should know that they didn't earn their spot there and that they will never get back there once this is over. And watching them, I can see they are way over their head.
Couldn't agree more with your quote...........

I know that Terry McCaulay assigns the BE, but I am not up to date on other DI assigners. Are there any other active NFL officals who are currently D! supervisors ?????

It is not the active ones they have to worry about alone. Many supervisors have kids working in the NFL or were former NFL officials themselves.

All I was said is it was made clear that those working for those guys might not have a place to come back to. After all, they are giving up their spot and just like anything else, no one is required to bring you back if this gets settled.

Peace

The speed of the game issues are overstated. The media hears that, thinks, "yeah, the NFL is faster than college and HS" and automatically believe the officials with only college experience can not adjust. Where do they think first year officials in the NFL come from?

The problem, as I've said before, is you have 7 rookies out there rather than 1 or none, as it usually is.

Totally agree, especially with the last part.
