There were horrible calls on both sides of the ball. Detroit's "touchdown" that never broke the plane. And then the Packer touchdown that should have been down at the one. A Packer receiver being tackled and no PI call. Followed by the "illegal hands to the face" that weren't.
In the end, only scoring field goals usually won't win you a game.
I will say this, I don't necessarily think that the refs abilities have gotten worse over the last 30 years. I think a majority of the issue has arose with all of the slow motion replay in high def making everyone an expert.
