Media mouthpieces are already talking about him finally getting his perfect season to avenge the SB loss of his 19-0 Pats team.

I watched that game last night with a dozen other guys at a poker tourney, most of them Pats fans pulling for Brady. Every one laughed about the end admitting it was a blown call and bragged about how Brady always got those types of calls. To a man they agreed there was no way the refs were NOT going to give Tampa a chance to at least attempt a FG on the last drive. Holds against the D line weren’t called throughout that drive. It was as predictable as the outcome of fistfight between me and my 5 YO nephew.

As I posted to start Guido, you (of all people) aren’t going to convince me it’s not rigged. Show me proof that these “blown calls” that happen at such crucial times aren’t fixes. You believe it Because the NFL says so. I don’t.

LOL! You can't prove crap because it isn't rigged. Can it be better officiated? Absolutely! You are living in a fairytale world hoping to explain away horrible calls and bad breaks.

As for the game last night, it's not a fix that the final drive was successful. Holding seldom gets called. Nor does OPI. That's not a fix, it's sorry officiating. Nothing more, nothing less. What does an official have to gain by purposely making bad calls? Nothing. What he has to lose is grading which could cost him his job. Refs have always swallowed their whistles in those situations. That doesn't mean anything is rigged.
