A too-quick whistle on Jack's fumble recovery. Should've let things play out, then go to the monitors versus immediately blowing the play dead.
Was Jack down by contact or not? _

I was referring to the post about Brady throwing it up and waiting for a flag...all the PI flags were good calls imo...

50 years from now they will be talking about the greatest football dynasty ever, and we are fortunate enough to be experiencing it.
Except for the people who hate success because it somehow makes their life seem like less ...... |

There's a lot of pushing and shoving and grabbing going on in the defensive backfield these days. The interference calls could have gone either way, thus no call should have been made. That's the way most games I watch have been called. And, yes, I did see what appeared to be some offensive holding on NE that wasn't called. Refs just let 'em play in the playoffs, you know...except when Brady throws a jump ball. Were there any offensive pass interference calls on NE? Defensive interference on NE?

Just goes to show, Pats are more disciplined.

For the season. Defensive Pass Interference. Jaguars - 7 Pats - 6 Offensive Pass Interference. Jaguars - 5 Pats - 8 Jacksonville Jaguars - 2017 Penalties - View by Penalty - NFL Penalty Stats Tracker - List/Statistics/Data of NFL Penalties - 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 New England Patriots - 2017 Penalties - View by Penalty - NFL Penalty Stats Tracker - List/Statistics/Data of NFL Penalties - 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 Oh wait, there's more. 3rd highest penalized team this season.

This is the stat for penalties committed. http://www.nflpenalties.com/phase.php?year=2017 Seems Jacksonville was consistent in their propensity to draw a flag.

I watch with the mute on, only listening to the occasional replay explanation by the refs. Tune out constant chatter. Makes the games more interesting for me. You should try it sometime. The NFL is a business, the Super Bowl is a TV show. Biggest show ever, every year. You can't have a TV show without a star. The Jags are boring. The Eagles and Vikings are boring. Brady is a SUPERSTAR!!!! Yay ratings! I wish someone could count the number of times the word Brady is spoken or written in national media the next two weeks. The number would be Huge! Can you imagine being a ESPN commentator and being faced with trying to hype a Bortles/Foles matchup as the biggest game ever? What would you have to talk about after the first five minutes? The refs bailed them and the NFL out...or not. LOL! If the Pats had won convincingly, there would be no argument. They were not the better team yesterday.

Black I just have one thing to say man....
Dilly dilly ![]() I didn't care who won...just like to see great games....it was that! Brady? Yep....I put him right up there with Montana now....didn't think that until the last SB...do now. And I followed Joe ever since he was at ND and introduced (on national TV) one of his lineman as "Big Dick Somebody" ![]() |

We'll see where all you so called Pats fans are after this dynasty ends... oh, and it will!
Amazing to think a franchise known for cheating (multiple times), hooks with the Commissioner, Ref's, you name it..., QB that cries like a baby to the refs when hit can't be hated....??? You have got to be kidding me. The 70's Steelers, Cowboys & Raiders would have dismantled the Pats and spit out their bones! Enjoy this run, get your #2 team ready... |

This is a 17 year run of excellence, unmatched in professional sports
I am a life long 49'er fan, lived the sorrow and the dream. Patriots? Stop whining about the refs and get some Vagisil. Beat them at their game: a buttoned-up, team oriented, no talk, just play approach. Exploit the rules, welcome change and adjust. 17 years.
