Pete Morelli's Officiating Crew Reportedly Removed from Cowboys vs. Redskins

On the heels of a rough performance in the Week 12 contest between the Arizona Cardinals and the San Francisco 49ers, referee Pete Morelli and his officiating crew were reportedly pulled from the Week 13 Monday Night Football game pitting the Dallas Cowboys against the Washington Redskins.

The NFL's decision to discipline Morelli and Co. was first reported by Pro Football Talk on Tuesday.

Officiating has been a hot-button issue in the NFL this season, and Week 12 featured a number of controversial calls. Perhaps no game was more poorly officiated than the Cards' 19-13 win over the Niners, though.
