Cheats just can't acknowledge what the rest of the world knows. They need to shut the **** up already. Just glad the game wasn't rigged in anyone's favor. The better team won
 
They do know they were saved by a ticky tacky call on a drive at the end of the first half, had no calls go against Gronk (especially on the drive to start the 2nd half), had an obvious fumble not reviewed and on the same drive had Gronk with a MAJOR push off in the endzone to catch his TD. That's just off the top of my head.
 
The soap opera called Patsville continues. Talk about a bunch of arrogant players and fans. Look at the games possible won by the officiating going for the Pats just this year. This has been the best few days after a Super Bowl ever.
 
If my facts are correct...

TWO teams in history have ever played an NFL playoff game and had only one penalty flag thrown against them. The *Patriots in 2011, and the *Patriots in 2018 in the AFCCG v Jacksonville. That stunner is followed up by a whopping two flags thrown against them in the Super Bowl.

And *Patriots fans complain now about officiating?

LOL, **** them. I'm drinking their tears.
 
They even had to correct their own article. WRs routinely look to the ref to check if they are lined up OK. You will often see a WR look at the ref and then the WR takes another step forward. Jeffrey checked with the ref and he said he was good. So long as your helmet aligns with the *** of the center, you are on the line. Same way that the OGs and OTs are half a step behind the center.

Can’t blame pats fans. They have only followed the sport for a few years.

Here’s the correction at the end of their article

[FONT=&quot]UPDATE (11:15 a.m. ET, Monday, Feb. 5): We have some clarity on this play. Well, kind of. While Philly only had six players on the line, the line judge may have deemed that wide receiver Alshon Jeffery was on the line prior to the snap. Video of the play appears to show Jeffery (at the top of the screen) checking with the official before lining up.[/FONT]

Lol that td play by philly was 100% legit, what a bunch of whiners
 
I'm going to say that Steratore's team did an admirable job of not calling penalties unless they were blatantly obvious and HAD to be called.

There's a couple of plays late in the game when Harrison is rushing the edge and they could have easily called holding, but it was so ticky-tack that it would have negated a completely valid play. I only noticed it after rewatching the game. In realtime, yes, they missed calls -- but I think they meant to miss them.
 
There was blatant holding on Long throughout the game. He was getting arm locked or shoulder locked on a dozen plays that went for no calls

Salute the nation
 
Delusional idiots. They think they are supposed to get all the calls. ******* ****s.
 
Patsies have a legit complaint. I mean, they were called for 19 penalties combined in the Pittsburgh, Jacksonville and Eagles games.

Wait, they were flagged FOR NINETEEEN YARDS in penalties in those three games combined??? Never mind.

@#$% that team. I would root for Ebola over the Patsies.
 
LOL. This is akin to the Harlem Globetrotters complaining that the Washington Generals get preferential treatment from the refs when they play each other. The Globetrotters games and Pats games are called as equally as lopsided....and just as scripted, at least form an officiating standpoint.

I'm telling you right ******* now, if Tom Brady gets of that pass off on 1st down during their last drive instead of getting sacked, the Pats win that game. No completion needed. He was going to heave it 50 yards to nobody in particular and the refs were going to throw the patented spot foul P.I. flag. They were going to give the Pats 1st and 10 at about the Eagles 30 with like :40 seconds to go. And they would have scored. Guaranteed. The sack wrecked everything.
