The Troll Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 ...is the fact that the Patriots got away with a blatant and game altering penalty. On the Seahawks penultimate drive, the Pats' DB fell down and left the WR wide open for what could have been at least a 30 yard gain, as no one else was around. Instead, the DB reaches out and trips the receiver. No call, of course. The Seahawks go three and out and then New England just marches right down the field on them. But, it just wouldn't be a Patriots Super Bowl without a little help from the officials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Crusher Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 We didn't miss it at my house. We all jump up screaming. Typical though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny16 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I didn't miss it either. It definitely should have been called if even Collinsworth could see it and think that it warranted penalizing his beloved Patriots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also lost that Bill Belichick didn't use any timeouts after the Kearse catch and let all the time run off the clock for Brady had Lynch busted that extra 2 feet on his last carry.

Jets Voice of Reason Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Also lost on this was the fact that the Seahawks went offsides when the Patriots were at the half-yard line. That wasn't even remotely a gimme play to end the game and cost the Seahawks even the faintest chance of a miracle comeback. The entire thing was a mess.

Kleckomania Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Also if Belicheat is such a genius how come he didn't have the Patriot DBs grab and hold all Seatlle WRs with 6 seconds left in 1st half for holding or pass INT penalties?? Would have forced the FG with 3 or 4 seconds off the clock from the 5 yard line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warfish Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Pats were getting away with penalties all night long. Just like every other week. Cheat on every play, the Refs/NFL will never call/catch them all -- The Patriot Dynasty Way. Cheaters do prosper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird call, but the game was lost because NE's offense flat out beat the "Legion of Boom" with their quickness. Brady was fantastic, but in my book Edelman was their MVP. That friggin' guy is an unbelievable player. Took a huge shot from Chancelor and just bounced up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warfish Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Seriously, the refs??? Come one, Jet fans need to stop blaming the refs for everything that does not go in the way of their rooting interest. Its sad. I don't blame the Refs. I question the competitive integrity of the entire league at this stage. I'm not convinced there isn't some measure of WWF going in the business (business first) that is the NFL. At the very least, it's obvious some franchises (including and especially the Pats) get preferential treatment at every level of the NFL administration, from Refs on up. Easy to prove, lets see if the NFL has the balls to suspend the Super Bowl Victor Head Coach for a year for cheating. Anything less, and there you go.

That wasn't even remotely a gimme play to end the game and cost the Seahawks even the faintest chance of a miracle comeback. The entire thing was a mess. "A mess" is a good start to describe it. I have been saying that the game ended like a Tarantino movie...stupidity just flying all over the place, and nothing made any sense. Back to the original post...during the drive when the Pats scored their third TD, either just before or just after the 3rd & 3 neutral zone infraction, there was a flagrant trip on a short pass play to Edelman with a big gain as a result. Michaels and Collins worth didn't mention it, but I think the director saw it, because they cut short a replay just before they showed it. But they let the teams play after the snap, which I prefer. Go at each other, and except for the stupidity that rivals stuff the Jets might have pulled off over the last few years to finish the game, it was really a fun game to watch for the first 59 minutes and 39 seconds...

JetBlue Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 The refs let them play for the most part. I was surprised they called a holding call on the pats. I agree. The were penalties that could have been called on both sides but the non PI call really went under the radar. I still don't understand why they didn't call it.
