Thanks, Matt.

Shane Spencer says

Shane Spencer says
Bill Leavy is eligible for CHI@MIN.
Shane Spencer says
Also eligible for CHI@MIN are Carl Cheffers, Walt Coleman and Jeff Triplette.
Shane Spencer says
…as well as John Parry.
david says
My guess for the “Beltway Bowl” Ravens – Skins
Parry, Green or Coleman
Craig Bosc says
The NFL has warned it’s Officials about releasing their schedules to the public including their friends. I would recommend that people don’t list their sources when posting on here. This website and one other are the reason why the NFL doesn’t send out a Master schedule to each official every week anymore. Now crews only know their schedule.
Preth says
If the email you provided is valid, may I contact you at it?
SportingBecky says
That is ridiculous
thrstonlovi says
That does make sense given the electronic world that we now live in.
Lorenzo Antonio says
Ed Hochuli should be eliglible to work Pats and Texans or Carl Cheffers
Shane Spencer says
Terry McAulay is eligible for HOU@NE.
Shane Spencer says
Scott Green is eligible for TEN@IND.
Shane Spencer says
…as well as AZ@SEA.
Shane Spencer says
…not to mention PHI@TB.
Joe Platania says
The Ravens have spoken and the arbiter for their game at WASH is none other than the man who officiated last year’s Thanksgiving “Har-Bowl”, JOHN PARRY… he also did the most recent Super Bowl as well…
Preth says
Thanks, Joe. Another amazing Ravens-Steelers game yesterday. It’s only fitting each year when our teams split the season series.
david says
And win in each others stadiums at that !!! Not the first time either !!!
Camps says
Walt Coleman for CHI @ MIN per Brad Biggs twitter.

Nita says
Ed Hochuli will be in Carolina on Dec. 9th.
Preth says
Thanks, Nita.
mr. bamboosaul says
who will officiate the Cowboys-Bengals game? whoever the officiating crew is . expect the cowboys to win since they
are road underdogs. just a thought.
Brian says
Based on what we already know about this week and who has done the Chargers and Steelers in the last 6 weeks and any Steelers home games, the following are the “Final 4” eligible for the SD at PIT game.
Jeff Triplette
Mike Carey
Scott Green
Terry McAulay
Clete Blakeman and Ed Hochuli were also eligible, but are already pegged for other games on here.
Preth says
Without having my fancy spreadsheet in front of me, that looks pretty accurate. However, since Bill Vinovich doesn’t have his own crew, I don’t consider him a complete impossibility for any game.
Jaret says
Mike Carey eligible for DET@GB
Craig Bosc says
Carey has Miami @ San Francisco.
Craig Bosc says
Confirmed!
Kenneth says
here are the final remaining possibilities for you all to digest:
DAL@CIN – Cheffers, Boger, Winter, Corrente, Green, McAulay
PHL@TB – Cheffers, Carey, Winter, Green, Corrente
NYJ@JAX – Riveron, Cheffers, Leavy, Triplette, Green, Corrente
SD@PIT – Leavy, Triplette, Boger, Carey, Green, McAulay
MIA@SF – Riveron, Leavy, Carey, McAulay
AZ@SEA – Riveron, Leavy, Cheffers, Triplette, Boger, Winter, Green, McAulay
NO@NYG – Riveron, Leavy, Cheffers, Triplette, Winter
DET@GB – Riveron, Leavy, Boger, Carey, Green, Corrente
HOU@NE – Riveron, Cheffers, Boger, Green, McAulay
If you prefer it the other way around:
Riveron: @jax, @sf, @sea, @nyg, @gb, @ne
Leavy: @jax, @sf, @sea, @pit, @nyg, @gb, OFF
Cheffers: @cin, @tb, @jax, @sea, @nyg, @ne
Triplette: @jax, @pit, @sea, @nyg, OFF
Boger: @cin, @pit, @sea, @gb, @ne
Carey: @tb, @pit, @sf, @gb
Winter: @cin, @tb, @sea, @nyg, OFF
Green: @cin, @tb, @jax, @pit, @sea, @gb, @ne, OFF
McAulay: @cin, @pit, @sf, @sea, @ne
Corrente: @cin, @tb, @jax, @gb, OFF
Daniel says
Bill Leavy cannot be in NY as he officiated Steelers @ Giants
Craig Bosc says
After process of Elimination… it appears McAulay is the Referee for Houston @ New England. I’d also guess that Leavy, Winter or Corrente is the OFF crew.
SportingBecky says
espncowboysblog@espncowboysblog
Officials breakdown: Bill Vinovich http://es.pn/YvrK1F
Kenneth says
bummer Archer doesn’t note who’s crew he has…
SportingBecky says
You can rule out …….. Walt Coleman’s crew from any Jaguar home games… for rest of season.. 😀 Just thought I would mention this…
Craig Bosc says
Why is that?
Preth says
Watch the caps, please. Becky tells me the reason is confidential.
Joe Platania says
I got wind that Hochuli will be in BAL for the game vs. DEN on 12-16….Thoughts? Nita?
Nita says
Not sure but anythings possible.
Matt Baehner says
Is Boger off this week?
Preth says
Should be, unless he’s subbing for somebody like the Anderson situation last week.
SportingBecky says
Here is what Conference has what Bowl Games for NCAA Bowls. Thought I would post the info here….
Big East
Rose, Outback, Independence
Big Ten
Sugar, Sun, Las Vegas, Military, Go Daddy
CFO-W
Capital one, Gator, Russell Athletic, Liberty, Kraft, BBVA, Idaho Potato
C-USA
Chick-Fil-A, Holiday
MAC
Meineke, Music City, Poinsettia
PAC-12
BCS Championship, Wild Wings, Pinstripe, Heart of D.
SEC
Orange, Alamo, Belk, Armed Forces
SunBelt
Beef O’Brady
WAC
New Orleans, Hawaii
EDOGG says
What about the ACC?
Kenneth says
ACC must have Fiesta at the least. If BE has Rose, B1G has Sugar, PAC has NCG and SEC has Orange, that leaves BXII and ACC for Fiesta, and obviously BXII can’t do Fiesta.
Tony Jia says
Do you know who will be the referees for the BCs bowls? Is Shaun Hochuli getting the NCG as PAC-12 will be doing the game?
Kenneth says
Land Clark is the BCSNCG referee
Lorenzo Antonio says
I think AL Riveron or Scott Green will officate Texans vs pats
Craig Bosc says
McAulay is the only Referee without a Monday Night game that is eligible to work HOU @ NE.
Kenneth says
with Craig’s information Re: Cheffers weeks 15 and 16, he’ll be either doing AZ@SEA or NJY@JAX this week, or possibly MNF, although not likely…he has Philly next week and NYG the week after that.
JJ says
bill leavy will be heavily booed if he steps foot in seattle guarenteed. to this day we hate his guts
Preth says
He worked a game in Seattle last December. Very few boos.
JJ says
i was there. couple of bad calls again but luckily they won. our local radio guys would not let us forget he was the ref
Dan says
Any word on who has the Giants/Saints game?
Shane Spencer says
Alberto Riveron is eligible for that game.
Joe 83 says
Hi Preth:
Carl Cheffers´Crew in Seattle this Dec. 9 (Cardinals @ Seahawks)
Bob says
DEN @ OAK = Blakeman
STL @ BUF = Steratore
DAL @ CIN = Vinovich (With Boger’s Crew)
KC @ CLE = Anderson
PHI @ TB = Winter
BAL @ WAS = Parry
ATL @ CAR = Hochuli
NYJ @ JAX = Riveron
TEN @ IND = Morelli
CHI @ MIN = Coleman
SD @ PIT = Green
MIA @ SF = Carey
ARI @ SEA = Cheffers
NO @ NYG = Triplette
DET @ GB = Corrente
HOU @ NE = McAulay
OFF = Leavy, Boger
Brian says
Interstingly enough, this wouldn’t be Green’s first SD at PIT game. He did Week 11 2008, better known as the one where Troy Polamalu should have been awarded a TD at the end but wasn’t. To quote Chris Berman, “I remembeah, cuz I wuz there!”
Shane Spencer says
PIT defeated SD 11-10 back then in the NFL’s “first-ever 11-10 game”.
Brian says
Scott Green is confirmed to hear the case of Chargers v. Steelers by my ultra-top-double-secret-probation source.
Preth says
Thanks as always, Bob.
Mike says
Does the league have a vendetta against the Giants? Since their bye they have seen McAulay, Boger, Triplette, ???, and rumored to be Cheffers in Week 16. That is 4 of the worst crews so far this year in a 5 week period
Dan says
I’m not a fan of Triplette or Boger, but McAulay and Cheffers usually do a solid job.
JJ says
where do you guys get all this information?
SportingBecky says
Top Secret… 😀
Mark says
For what its worth Mike boger’s crew called Monday nights game equally bad for the Redskins. Even you have to admit the horse-caller call in the 4th quarter called against the Redskins was a phantom flag.
Mike says
They really were bad. Also thought the OPI was too close to be called that late in the game. I also liked how they awarded RGIII a first down late in the game even though he went out of bounds a good 2-3 yards before the marker. Unfortunately the clip was turned into a .gif and I cannot find the source code to post it here
Graeme says
I was just wondering if anyone knew where the NFL referees stayed when they are in Minneapolis?
Preth says
Why do you ask?
Graeme says
Just curious. Staying in town thought I may see them around.
Preth says
Well – as I understand it, and I could certainly be wrong, officials don’t generally stay in hotels. I’m sure some of them have places they like to stop at in specific cities, for coffee or what not.
JJ says
you mean they fly in the day of the game? seems kinda tiring for them im sure they have to stay somewhere
Preth says
Okay, found an old article.
http://naso.org/WhatWeDo/Newsroom/NASONewsWatch/TabId/113/PostId/138/26-Hours-With-An-NFL-Crew.aspx
Guess they do often stay in hotels. Can’t exactly claim to be an expert at all officiating topics besides assignments. 🙂
And thus, in revised response to Graeme, I have absolutely no idea. I doubt anyone around here could be specific about that question, but if someone could, there’d still be concerns of privacy.
rob says
the head ref for the colts an titans game needs to be fired making very bad calls
Preth says
Explain, please.
T says
Colts good 40y catch – not for them
Luck down on INT – not for them
bogus PI and holding to extend Titans comeback drive
Preth says
I agree on the Luck interception, the knee was down. As for the others, I’ll have to catch the game when it replays on NFL Network. Was stuck with Steelers-Chargers, a rather uninteresting game from the officiating standpoint.
T says
They also missed a clear fumble by CJ
jj says
has bill leavy officiated a 49ers game yet i fear him reffing the seahawks 49ers game
Kenneth says
he had the 49ers@Cardinals in week 8, which won’t affect him reffing 49ers@Seahawks… which has been flexed to SNF
jj says
50 bucks says bill leavy screws seattle again given the opportunity i just pray its not against SF. His game last with with the seahawks was terrible
Russ says
When? The Super Bowl. You know he worked 2 Seahawks games last season right? I watched most of the Rams@Seahawks game in week 14 and his crew was fine in that game. That was the actual last time Leavy did the Seahawks.
jj says
i was at his rams game last year and remember it being terrible. i believe the other one he officiated was against pittsburgh and seattle played very poorly there. but his game in seattle was lousy.
