It's too bad the officiating has become the topic it is, because no one is noticing that right now New England, Pittsburgh, Denver, Detroit, Green Bay are all playoff teams from last year sitting with 1-2 records. While another one the Saints are one of two teams in the entire league without a win. Part of it could be the replacement officials....part of it is the schedule has matched some teams with tough matchups every week. But part of it has to be just how close the teams in the league really are. It could be a year where there 24 teams fall inside the range of 6 to 10 wins.
