I used to ref youth league football, and honestly, it's hard. I made a few judgement calls in my time that I'm sure were 100% wrong. And I made a couple "make-up" calls when I know I wronged a team earlier.
What the NFL needs is more refs on the field. You simply can't see everything, especially at NFL speed.
That said, given some of the blatant misses I've seen, I can't help but think there is someone in their ear saying "let them play - don't be the guy who decides the game."
