Matthew Staffords petty wife wants refs names…
Calling out NFL referees is changing into endemic amongst the Rams and their supporters.
Just hours after Puka Nacua put “Thursday Night Football” officers on blast for some of their calls in Los Angeles’ 38-37 loss to the Seahawks, Matthew Stafford’s wife took to her Instagram on Friday morning to query them as effectively.
While sharing a replay of Cooper Kupp’s unbelievable sideline catch in additional time, Kelly Stafford urged her followers to take a look at one of the referees’ reactions to the toe-tapping snag.

“Never seen refs get this excited about a catch?” she wrote while including a considering emoji. “Now the blown dead two point conversion and illegal man downfield makes sense. Should we be looking into this? Can I get these refs names?”
Kelly adopted that post up with a “ya, I’m petty” message before sharing vidoes of her daughters.
The first of the other two performs Kelly had an issue with got here in the first quarter of the key NFC West matchup at Lumen Field.
A Rams landing was wiped away by an ineligible man downfield flag that “TNF” guidelines skilled Terry McAulay said on air “really isn’t a foul.”
The other play Kelly referenced was the inconceivable two-pointer the Seahawks scored to even up the sport at 30 in the fourth.

Nacua — who beforehand called refs “the worst” during a problematic livestream earlier in the week — went on X immediately after the loss and requested, “Can you say I was wrong. Appreciate you stripes for your contribution. Lol.”
He rapidly deleted the post, though minutes later, even Sean McVay appeared to query the two-point ruling in a tense postgame press convention.

“I’ve never seen anything or never been a part of anything like that,” the Rams head coach said. “And I’ve grown up around this game. I’m not making excuses. We don’t do that. I don’t believe in that. It doesn’t move us forward, but we do want clarity and an understanding of the things that we can do to minimize that when we rejected the two-point conversion.”
The clearly ticked-off Rams may have some further time to cool down before their next recreation on Dec. 29 against the Falcons.
