2006 National Football League officiating crews

Listing of the officiating crews for the 2006 NFL season. Each crew comprises seven officials who work together all season in the same position—referee, umpire, head linesman, line judge, field judge, side judge, and back judge. The top rated crews based on game performance receive post-season assignments. Officials must have been in the league for a few years to be assigned to a post-season game, otherwise, they are substituted with the next highest-rated official at their position. The top rated crew worked Super Bowl XLI in Miami, Florida on February 4, 2007.

All crews are typically assigned 15 games (with two weeks off) during the 17-week regular season. The crew that works the Super Bowl works two post-season games; all other crews work no more than one post-season game.
