Robert Quinn Blasts Refs After Loss to Vikings

The refs during Monday's game between the Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings were at the center of several questionable calls. The penalty yards Minnesota earned thanks to flags on Chicago certainly had an impact in a game that finished 17-9.

Bears defender Robert Quinn was quick to call out the officials after Monday's contest.

Quinn was mainly upset with how he felt the refs changed the flow of Monday's game. He took issue with flags being thrown on plays that seemed to be clean.

"These refs seem like they're controlling the game a little too much. So, when a play is clean, and they're throwing a flag for something that they thought they could change a game [with] just by one flag ... let guys play ball. If this was a couple years ago, half of this stuff wouldn't even be called. But now, they got so many of these stupid rules, they dang near in a ref's hands [and] could change the game in any given moment."

Quinn's certainly not the first player to bemoan league rules or the refs' performance this season. And in a close game like Monday's, those glaring issues shine bright.

The loss to the Vikings officially eliminated Chicago from postseason contention, who will now look to end the year strong before entering what could be a busy offseason. The Bears take on the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16.
