Scott Van Pelt recently voiced his frustration regarding the high volume of penalties impacting NFL games this season. During his podcast, he highlighted the excessive frequency of officiating interventions, specifically pointing to a matchup between Cincinnati and another opponent that featured 24 penalties and 233 total yards.
He argued that referees are becoming overly influential in pivotal game moments, noting that recent league data confirms this year has seen the highest number of accepted penalties since 1978. Adam Schefter also reported that the most recent week of play recorded more infractions than any single week since 2015.
