Week 17 referee assignments
by Football Zebras staffDecember 29, 2015

The games of Week 17 will all be played on Sunday. The regular season will come to a close with referee Bill Vinovich — who closed out last year’s postseason in the Super Bowl — as the Vikings and the Packers battle for the NFC North title. Games are grouped generally by the impact they have on the playoffs. Teams in italics are seeking a playoff berth. Jerome Boger’s crew and, individually, Jeff Triplette are off this week. (Boger and Triplette swapped bye weeks.)

Over his NFL career, he has worked two conference championship games (1998 and 2003), but is most notable for being the referee in the game that became known as "The Tuck Rule Game". He was the alternate referee of Super Bowls XXXIV and XLII.

Coleman's 2015 NFL officiating crew consists of umpire Bill Schuster, head linesman Jerry Bergman, line judge Kevin Codey, field judge Boris Cheek, side judge Jon Lucivansky, and back judge Rich Martinez.
