Colts 2017.... Same old song and dance....

That was an awesome ending to an excellent game. Because of that final play I hope the Vikings win it all.

Well, only the Patriots to get through. I believe the Jags have them at home (Foxborrow) next week.

Gotta get through Philly first

Gotta get through Philly first

Should be good games next weekend.

Jags played a good game. Best stat? The penalties. Jacksonville: 6 penalties for 98 yards. New England: 1 penalty for 10 yards. 60 minute game and you only throw the flag at them once? Come on NFL.....

I saw some really bad officiating in this one. Brady would have been on his butt multiple times save the obvious holding. Same with coverage.

It's a shame that the officiating favors the Patriots. They're good enough to win without these obvious tainted calls.

Come on man......New York wants the Patriots in the big game not the underdog.

In sport, the veteran(s) will always receive preferential treatment.

 

[Spear Dane]

I guess we have to wait another couple weeks for our new coach to start.

I keep forgetting the NFL is a money driven entity solely derived for the purpose of a large profit. Gotta love Capitalism.
Fairness and sportsmanship have nothing to do with it.

You guys really think the NFL tells their refs to give the calls to NE?

I don’t know. It’s kind’ve like most government conspiracies for me. I don’t think I necessarily believe all of them, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were true.

Did you watch the game...???

 

[HoughMade]

If you think the refs won this...you had better watch the game. The pass interference calls were pass interference. The non-calls were non calls.

The Jags failed to perform in the 4th. End of story.

 

[ChristianPatriot]

Saw this little tidbit. Per the NFL, the Patriots’ one penalty is the fewest in a playoff game since 2011. Anybody care to guess who it was in 2011? Anybody? Wait for it.....the Patriots.

 

[jamil]

Did you watch the game...???

Yes. I did watch the game. You take a guys head off before the ball gets there. That's pass interference. I didn't see the non-calls. But I was working while watching the game. I get it that you guys hate the Patriots, and maybe even Brady. And it may hurt to say, but they are a talented team. They did not get to where they are because the refs give them the games. Give them their due. They earned the trip. In the 4th quarter Brady made the passes he needed to make. And some of the catches that Amandola made were just amazing in the face of excellent coverage. They made the plays.

On a sadder note. My Vikings got their asses handed to them. They flat out got outplayed.

I'd not say they failed to perform. I would say it this way, they were outperformed. I don't think the Jags lost it as much as the Patriots won it. The 4th quarter was possibly as good as the 4th quarters of the Jags/Steelers and Vikings/Saints last week. For as meh as the regular season was this year, the playoffs have so far have featured very good play in the games I watched.

Watch the pocket protection on about every play in the 4th. The Pats were beyond holding so yeah there were a lot of "Non-calls.
The last pass interference that brought Brady to about the 10 outside the end-zone was bogus. Offensive interference yes. JMHO and yeah I loath the Patriots.
To many key calls that brought the pats back into that game.

I am not saying every call was bogus. No way. There were so many non-holding calls behind the line on the patriots it was ludicrous.
