If you have tuned into the NFL this season, or maybe any season at all, officiating is always a big talking point. Typically, it’s complaints about calls, and the discourse is almost never positive for the officials. This year, NFL officiating has seemed to generate far more negative attention than any season in recent memory. Just look at the last two Kansas City Chiefs games, and you can see why. Complaints are at an all-time high.
On Thursday after practice, former Penn State star defender Micah Parsons went on a tirade about the lack of penalties being called on him this season. Many edge defenders complain about the lack of holding calls, but last week against the Eagles seemed to be a tipping point for the Eagles. Parsons sees the official’s behavior this season as an ego problem rather than an officiating problem, according to the Dallas Morning News.
Here is a look at some of the best social media reactions to Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons’s latest rant on NFL officiating found on X, formerly known as Twitter.
