Seahawks Insider

As one of our readers pointed out, and as we confirmed, Gerry Austin is scheduled to serve as referee for the Seattle-Chicago divisional playoff game Sunday at Soldier Field. By our records, Austin had the NFL's highest overall replay-reversal rate (.625) during the 2006 regular season (he worked 15 games). His crew also assessed 39 additional penalties against road teams, the highest differential among referees during the 2006 regular season. Austin worked Seattle's 24-22 home victory over the Rams. Road coaches are 6-2 in replay challenges against Austin this season. Home coaches are 2-3. Gene Steratore is the alternate referee, by the way.
