NFL Officiating Crew Reassigned After Controversial Week 7 Performance

An NFL officiating crew, led by Alex Moore, has been reassigned after a poor performance in Week 7, which reportedly cost them the opportunity to officiate a nationally televised game.

The crew was initially scheduled to referee the matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders but was taken off the assignment on Thursday. Instead, they will officiate a game between the New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins.

This crew had previously officiated the game between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions, where their performance faced significant backlash due to several questionable calls against the Packers. The league's decision to reassign them is seen as a move to avoid potential controversy during a primetime broadcast.
