"I told you the quarterbacks that have eight wins or more, I went into detail explaining how hard it is for a young quarterback to have success in the National Football League.

Need to Know: The last straw? - Rich Tandler's Real Redskins
But you can’t say the same about the botched call at the end of the Monday night game. By now I’m sure you’re seen the interception that was called a touchdown and you’ve heard the nuances on the rules of simultaneous possession so I’m not going to rehash all of that here. This was not just a bad call, the optics were horrible. You have two striped shirts in the end zone near the pile. Without conferring, as competent officials in any sport should, one calls a touchdown, the other signals timeout, meaning that there was a turnover and touchback.

DALY: Each hit on RG3 exposes lack of depth - Washington Times
Every September, after the Turk has made his final rounds, Mike Shanahan stands before the media jackals and insists his latest Washington Redskins team is the deepest he’s ever had here. Being a diplomatic sort, though, he always leaves out the "except" part. And on every club, even the Super Bowl champions, there’s an "except" part.
NFL referees: Boycott not being considered, says Redskins' NFLPA reps - Washington Times
"There’s more than enough examples out there to show that we need the real refs back," Washington Redskins linebacker Lorenzo Alexander said.

Seahawks-Packers game ends with more NFL refs controversy
The officials, apparently the same crew that worked Redskins-Rams last weekend, gave conflicting indications as to whether it was a touchdown or interception.
