This has to stop!!!!!! I say we protest by kneeling during the whole game from first whistle to last whistle
You guys act like the Jets have never been robbed in a Patriots game before. This wasn't the first time nor will it be the last time. Bitching about it ad nauseum won't change the outcome of the game so save your energy for the work week ahead. Did any of you really think the Jets would get a fair shake? If so, get help. Marginal teams and bad teams ALWAYS get calls against them vs. the Patriots. You don't have to like it, but that's the way it is. Time to move on.
I think the Jets got jobbed by the refs repeatedly today. That said, they had chances to build dominating leads and did not take advantage of them early on. The Adams PI was definitely incidental contact caused by Gronkowski putting his hand on Adams facemask and pushing hard as the ball came in. It was closer to offensive pass interference than defensive. The non-call on the helmet to the chin was something that would have been called 95% of the time against any other team. The overturn of the TD was a bad call made worse by the fact that the league office made the call.
I remember saying that after Browning Nagle threw for 360 yards in 1991. Since then I've learned moral victories are for suckers. It was just another J E T S gut punch. How the the Pats get the ball on the 20 is what is wrong with the NFL though. It makes no sense.
lowly Dolphin fan here and the OP is 100% correct. The NFL IS a major disgrace. That might have been the worst call I've ever seen (and thats saying something). Completely screwed you guys and changed the game in the Pats favor.
You can NOT tell from that shot that the ball is free. He could have it pressed against his body with his elbow, which is still possession. INCONCLUSIVE
I had to leave for work at half so I missed the play but the NFL is rigged for New England. I recommend not watching
Forget Krooked Kraft...what about Les Moonves, the head of the network carrying the game, sitting in his lap!
If you're still watching then you're being played for a fool. Two teams had sure victories against those bastards in the super bowl and inexplicably lost. Sure makes you wonder
Watching the Sunday night game... looks like they skipped out on talking about the jets/pats game all together on the halftime recap
It's beyond disputable that the NFL "dictates" game outcomes based on what they think will yield the most revenue. And the Patriots are major beneficiaries of that policy. Take the last SB - at halftime I told my wife, "Watch, even though it looks like it will be a blow out, that refs will make sure that the Patriots get back into it and at least make it a close game, if not win it". And sure enough, the Patriots "somehow" come back and win. And of course there's the whole Deflategate - how have the refs allowed Brady to deflate footballs all this time and not notice? The NFL has become the ultimate "video game", controlled by those behind the scenes, dictating outcomes. It's one short step away from professional wrestling.
Chickenshit calls. That was a fucking touchdown. If it wasn't us against that team, or any other team in the league, that's a touchdown. another turning point in this game was that horrendous non call on the helmet to helmet on Robby. If they make that call and not pick up th eflag like they should have, we could have gone 21-0 or AT LEAST 17-0 instead of 14.
