WTF IS GOING ON IN DETROIT?


14 in Green

Recommended Posts

The subtleties are what get lost in the pats cheating.

Being surrounded by Pats fans my whole life and watching probably 75% of their games every year, there is a process for how to officiate against the pats, and it involves subtleties. You’ll notice that in general, Brady has a 3-4 seconds of clean pockets even against the best DLs and their OL gets no holds called against them. That’s a great way to help the O. How to help the D? Nuances. For example: call a hold on the opponent OL when the opponent runs in a TD. It’s relatively non-controversial since you can probably find someone holding on every play, but it removes 7 points off the board. Then more often than not, opponent settles for FG. 

Another way to do it is what we just saw in the first half:

Anyone else completely flabbergasted at why the ref who was literally on the goal line and a few steps away from the play didn’t award the lions a td? Another way to remove 7 points from the opponent’s score and try to hold them to a FG. How? Well, to be awarded the TD, the lions had to throw a challenge flag on a simple, 100% TD. What happens if a guy like Bowles is on the sideline there? Take what the ref says, try to run another play, and end up settling for a FG? What if the opponent doesn’t challenge? That’s a 4 point swing. That’s a nuanced, subtle cheat code.

This is The Classic Belichick “bend but not break” defense explained.

Meanwhile, if Brady threw that and Gronk was the one stretching out like that, it’d be ruled a TD 10 out of 10 times, no hesitation from that goal line ref.

******* disgusting.

You will also see the even it up penalties come up after the game is no longer in doubt.  They'll call a holding call on the pats oline only after brady has been sacked on a play.

Oh those are my favorites. Every arrogant douche plays the victim card in unison on those phone penalties. Some variant of “the nfl is against Brady”, invariably followed by a deflategate and still won the SB reference.
