Should we be concerned about the replacement refs throwing games or altering spreads?

All you hear about is how these are just "regular guys, with regular jobs" like teachers.....as opposed to the real NFL refs who I know also have other jobs, but they make six figures as an NFL ref.

Let's say someone in Vegas got ahold of a rogue ref and made him an offer he couldnt refuse to call a few extra penalties to alter an outcome, or to make sure a spread is or is not covered.

maybe

no more than you should about the regular crews

is it that easy for refs though in the nfl. I dont wanna seem naive but i feel like its much harder to alter the game as a ref in the nfl than other sports.

i dont know why i think that i just do. its probably dumb that i do

I would think it's more likely than with the regular refs. These guys aren't going to be NFL refs anymore after it's all settled so there is definitely an opportunity for some of these guys to make a few bad calls and hide behind the "dumb and inexperienced" tag that has been placed on them.

The only one of these "replacement" refs who will be a regular ref is the female one.Best believe the NFL is going to keep at least 1.

These guys have more incentive, and will have better excuses if suspected as well.

it's a possibility yes

 

[TheGreatShowtime]

No, after Tim Donaghy, I doubt anyone tries anything like that. You don't mess with the mob's money.
