Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.

I agree. As a whole (and I'm not just talking about Bronco games), the officiating this year has got to be the worst I've ever seen in the NFL my whole life.
The calls, and non-calls they make are just ridiculous, and always seem to be one-sided. Sometimes I really consider putting on a tin hat, and start making comparisons to that Donnehy (spelling?) guy from the NBA a few years back...
Ya, I rarely complain about the officiating, but the refs sure did screw us this last game. The return Royal had should have stood, would have put us up 14-10 and gave us the momentum.
I've said it before, no harm saying it again: Illegal Block in the back is the most pathetic penalty in Football. DoomTrooper is right too, the officiating this season has left an awful lot to be desired, not just in Denver's games.
Sometimes officials amaze me with their ability to make the right call on a bang-bang play, but it seems this year that there's been some very questionable calls (and non-calls) - and not just in the Broncos games either.
Agreed, i dont like to complain about refs either because it usually evens out in the end for both teams.
But man these last 2 games really have me wondering if the refs wanted us to lose. What gets me is when refs blow calls for ticky tack fouls that are game changers.
We had alot of those go against us the last 2 weeks. It's really amazing how the patriots o-linemen seem to hold all game and not get a single holding call yet we got one when they were like 3 - 24 with the game still kind of close.
