This is where that New England loss pisses me off

That was our win. The ONLY reason we lost that game is because of the refs. Without there ****ty calls we beat them 9 out of ten times. Only game I have ever blamed the refs for. We should have won that one.

At least when Brady has been in that exact same scenario twice more he was picked off and incomplete. To bad one of them was against the Panthers though.

Please stop blaming the refs. They may have made a bad call at the end there, but we should have NEVER let it come down to that. We had what? Two drives in the final 3 minutes of that game? And we couldn't run out the clock. We lost the game because we couldn't close it out, not because of the referees.

I disagree!! If the official had done his job and thrown a flag on this play, the Saints win!

Yeah, I'm so suspicious as to why the patriots get so many calls there way. Then when they get one bad call against them the whole nation cries. Pisses me off so much.

Tough loss. One thing is for sure, Brady is the biggest winey baby this side of the Mason Dixon. This time he walked off the podium when the questions got more focused.

Should have won that game but I honestly though if we got 10 W's this season I'd be satisfied. I am, but I'm not. We are an 8th of an inch from the playoffs. Win this game.

Yes, they made a bad call at the end. I think we should have never let it come down to a referee's decision though. We had multiple opportunities to run the clock out and win that game, and we failed to do so. That's on us.

Officiating plays a part in away games too much, Patriots have also suffered bad calls on the road, but you get that sense that the Patriots get bad calls on the road because they get handed victories so much at home (Broncos, Saints, and Browns got literally cheated out of a victory in NE), it kind of was karma but at the same time could end up altering our division and entire conference because the Patriots should have beaten the Panthers.

bad calls or not, we had that game and blew it

Patriots lost a game on a terrible call too. I think there are just bad calls in the NFL. There have always been bad calls. We just scrutinize them more with multiple angle cameras, social media, camera smart phones etc.

I think modern NFL with scrutiny of hits have made the refs job even MORE subjective. That's where the game has sunk.

As for bad calls, every team in the NFL thinks they get them called against them.
