No way the NFL or their pocket referee's were going to let the Jets win this game. The Helmet to Helmet + the Defenseless receiver waived off was the turning point we would have probably gone up 17 - 0 or 21-0 on that drive. The pass interference on Adams when Gronk basically threw him to the ground after pushing off was another disaster The ASJ so called fumble was the worst call in the history of this league. At the very best it should have been inconclusive and the TD stands but it was obvious he had possession. **** the Patriots and the NFL who loves them. **** them all. Looked like Gronk kept Adams from turning and intercepting that ball. I shut the game off after the TD. Worst case scenario should have been ball at the 1 inch line. No way they could tell conclusively that it was not a TD but at the very least they can not tell me they know he lost control before his knee went down before the goal then regained control with his knee still out of bounds but for sure after he crossed the goal. That's some detective work right there to leave no doubt on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The level of absurdity will continue to rise as long as people keep looking the other way or allowing themselves to be fooled. Boston fans on social media are actually claiming it was a make-up call for all the anti-Pats transgressions earlier in the game. Who is the league going to play its product to? The delusional fan base whose rabid interest you can hold only when their team is good? Or the one that still buys out every ticket of every game and gets big ratings despite decades of incompetence? The story isn't going to change for this franchise until we as fans make it more profitable for the Jets to be good than not. Time to stop watching the games.

The NFL knows about every single one of its fanbases. Here's what it knows about Pats fans and Jets fans. 1) Pats fans will make you lots of money if their team is good. If their team is not good, you lose that major market completely for a while. 2) Jets fans will come back indefinitely. All you have to do is ensure that they compete every three years or so.

I agree with you there too, and as a season ticket holder that's a big problem for the NFL. There is no competitive balance in the NFL. You either have a franchise QB or you don't. It's not that the refs are crooked, it's that the rules are designed to let quarterback-heavy teams win and there are only 8 quality quarterbacks in the league. So if you have one of those guys, you're bored as you yawn your way to a 11 win season. And if you don't have one of those guys, you're bored as you sorta but don't pay attention as you fall apart in a 6 win season. The NFL used to be the best sport because with a strong running game and a decent defense you used to stand a chance of winning. Today, that doesn't matter. You either have the QB or you don't. And the rules changes and replay have made the game maddening and frustrating for fans, no TD is safe, no emotion is spent properly. It's a mess. The ratings are finally reflecting it.
