"All-star" officiating crew for Rams-Chiefs game

NFL ups intensity with all-star officials for Rams-Chiefs game

Kevin Seifert
ESPN.com NFL Nation



The NFL took the unusual step this week of assigning an "all-star" officiating crew to the most highly anticipated game of the season, adding to the playofflike frenzy for Monday night's matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams.

Referee Clete Blakeman will work the game with only two members of his regular crew, umpire Ramon George and down judge Dana McKenzie. The other five officials -- including Jim Lapetina, who will handle replay -- were plucked from four other crews.

The approach is similar to how the NFL assigns officials to playoff games, a process that is based on performance and seniority rather than crew. But it is rarely, if ever, employed before the postseason. Officials typically work on the same eight-person crews throughout the regular season to maximize continuity and familiarity among members.

Individual crew members are occasionally juggled for health or scheduling reasons. But a series of actions this season have indicated the league is moving away from the consistent crew concept, in favor of a more aggressive administration of officiating. Earlier this season, the league bounced down judge Hugo Cruz among four crews before ultimately making him its first-ever official to be fired for performance during the season.

NFL spokesman Michael Signora confirmed Sunday that "there is a rotation amongst the crews throughout the season." Signora did not provide details on the decision to overhaul Blakeman's crew for Monday night's game.

An officiating source said Sunday that the five officials added to Monday night's crew are all highly respected and have performed well this season.

The Chiefs-Rams game, originally scheduled to be played in Mexico City before it was relocated to Los Angeles, is a rare matchup. Since 1970, there have been only four other games pitting teams with one or fewer losses this late in the season. And according to the Elias Sports Bureau, this is the latest matchup ever between two teams averaging at least 33 points per game.

The following is the full crew for Monday night's game, as listed on the official flip card published by the NFL, with the officials' permanent referee in parentheses:


Referee: Clete Blakeman

Umpire: Ramon George (Blakeman)

Down judge: Dana McKenzie (Blakeman)

Line judge: Rusty Baynes (John Hussey)

Field judge: Dale Shaw (Jerome Boger)

Side judge: Brad Freeman (Clay Martin)

Back judge: Tony Steratore (Boger)

Replay: Jim Lapetina (Brad Allen)

My mouth literally dropped on that one...just the brazen attempt to make penalties up.

You guys know how this works...these refs are actually going to be rewarded for this. If they tow the company line...they will get the big games.

I said this in another thread, Reids Philly teams never got a ton of penalties matter of fact I'm pretty sure they were routinely one of the lowest penalized teams..

Know what's different..Philly is way bigger than KC so he isn't allowed to be as successful here...
Maybe...but he never had the built in superstardom that is Mahomes. Dude is for real. He fronted the Rams 21 points in the road and they still only won by 3.

Again, we may not win the SB this year, but we will eventually. The NFL cannot keep this QB down...

Unless we get the McCarthy experience here (God help us)

I also like how there will always be people that are like "losers blame refs" "whining" you know why?

That is an awesome narrative the NFL wants out there so no one will question how horrible their refs are and how it's blatant what they are trying to do.

Am I suppose to magically believe that both LA teams rock the house after they were shit for years?

Manning got 1 superbowl in Indy...1. Cause when he'd get to the playoffs he wasn't allowed to beat his big market rival...

Pray to god that some young QB doesn't become a star in a big market like Sam Darnold or something or we'll get jobbed.

Like when the Raiders had the most 4th quarter comebacks when they were vying for a stadium in Vegas. They went 12-4. They have won 6 games since...in two years.

The patterns are there...just like the hype for the Chargers all off season. They didn't beat a single winning team last year...but now they are world beaters.

The league got EXACTLY what they wanted tonight.

A big time shoot out with record breaking numbers by two young hot shot QB’s going down to the wire with the big market team coming out on top.

I don’t think the game was ‘rigged’, mind you, but if they wanted it to be they couldn’t have scripted it any better . . . .

#LAstrong or some shit like that

It's far more of an entertainment product than it is a true competition, big money has made it that way.

Lets be real does anyone think that a dynasty forming in a small market without a big fan base is good for the NFL?

Someone give me a team that has been a dynasty in a small market in the last 20 years...I don't think it's some coincidence that all of the consistent performers are in massive markets.

It was very much a narrative of this is LA and they matter. They even showed the Rams fans in Mexico...no Chiefs fans.
I remember a couple of occasions where the announcer in a game would be really pissed about a bad call and start to bitch about it, then stop mid-sentence and not mention it again. Undoubtedly somebody in charge told him to shut the **** up in through his earpiece.

They see the same shit we do, but they know who signs their checks.

Dude the NFL basically made ESPN get rid of their playmakers show that painted players in a bad light and basically dictates what they can talk about because ESPN shows 1 game a week...

Anything bad is said about the NFL and they immediately come out with threats like the mafia...

I knew it was bad news when this was announced. Can anyone reading this thread watch that game and not be left wondering that there might be truth to these refs being brought in to purposely favor the Rams?

Pretty strange that the announcers had nothing to say about the obvious false start on the Goff running TD, let alone the fact that he held like a mofo after the false start.
