Back in week six, the Green Bay Packers-Tampa Bay Buccaneers game in Tampa was officiated by Jerome Boger who is, to put it kindly, not great. Boger had three Bucs games in the 2020 season and all were extremely weird, as Boger games tend to be. The first, in week one, was a flag-filled garbage-fest in New Orleans where each team suffered over 100 yards in penalties. While the Bucs were penalized more often, with nine total, the Saints took it on the chin as all 6 penalties called against them were huge, including five separate pass interference penalties plus an unnecessary roughness call.
Does Clete Blakeman’s assignment as NFC Championship Game referee matter?
