Officiating in the NFL has been criticized for quite some time, and detractors have only grown louder this season.
The Athletic's Dianna Russini reported on Saturday that the league is aware of the issue and hopes to see improvements from its referees going forward.
"This isn't a new issue, but the criticism seems to be the loudest it's ever been," Russini stated. "The league wants to see more consistency week to week from crew to crew."
Of course, referees have a tough job and mistakes are to be expected when it comes to subjective calls in a high-pressure environment like an NFL game.
