These officials won't make it to the playoffs. Teams have to qualify for the playoffs, and so do the officials. They are graded throughout the season and only a select few get the nod. That said, some of the worst officiating I have ever seen occurred in the Pittsburgh Seattle SB. Those guys should have been fired because the calls made and missed, in effect, simply handed the Lombardi to Pittsburgh.
The Bucs might actually reach the playoffs. That wouldn't surprise me, but they're not going to advance very far. There are too many issues that only an upgrade in personnel can resolve. That's next year, and then the officials won't be a part of the conversation.
