Gronkowski gets interfered with on the final play in the end zone. Flag thrown, but officials decide to end the game anyway. Can someone explain why the flag was ignored?

Gronk wasnt getting near the ball probably played a part.

He would've been able to come back and at least challenge for the throw.

Its definitely pass interference but refs dont want to throw their flags in those situations at that time of the game unless it 100% gonna be a TD.

It gives the Pats another snap regardless of how much time is on the clock, so unless he's hit and spills the ball you're almost NEVER going to see a PI call in that scenario, especially when you're talking about overturning an interception. It sucks sometimes but the refs made the right call. It's not like they missed three illegal shifts in one game or something.

Watching Jimmy Graham I couldn't help but think of the football goal falling on Tommy Sherman in Daria.

I have no fucking clue what's going on tonight. Errors galore on both sides of the ball. Denver are 24-0 up in Foxborough. Just saw the Manning throw a screen pass that took them from 3rd and 20 to a first down. Absolute garbage play from us so far, and it doesn't look like it will improve.

Flynn must start next week. Dont get a W and we are cooked for the season. Proves what damage losing a frnachise QB can do.

At least next season we'll have Flynn on back-up and won't have the same problems we've had this season. How bloody good is Jordy Nelson? To have 50+ yards every week with Wallace, Tolzien and Flynn throwing to him. He'd be going to the pro bowl if Rodgers wasn't injured.

That packers game was horrible to watch. The O-line giving up 7 sacks was dreadful.

Packers snap their losing streak 22-21 over the Falcons. Hopefully Rodgers is back next week.
The Lions result went out way with them losing to the Eagles.
Kansas City absolutely destroyed Washington in every way, Cincy reminded people that they can actually play football sometimes. Not sure what the actual fuck happened in the Pats game.

We were 21-10 over the Broncos just before halftime, its now 51-28. Our offence cant keep our defence off the field, Denver are close to 40 minutes in possession.

5 touchdowns in the last 2 minutes of the fourth quarter game between Minnesota and Baltimore. What the actual fuck? Quote:Not sure what the actual fuck happened in the Pats game Neither do I. 14 points in the last 2 minutes and a great onside recovery to get us the win was brilliant...but we shouldn't be 13 points down to Cleveland at home in the first place. Pretty poor performance from us from what I've heard, missed the game. We're really missing Mayo and Wilfork on defense. Meanwhile...Gronk has torn his ACL, so that's him gone for the season. We're really gonna miss him, we've been a lot better on offence since he's returned. Wouldn't be surprised to see us go after a TE in the draft or free agency to provide cover for Gronk/play alongside him ala Hernandez.

It's certainly not beneath the Pats organisation to try and persuade Tony Gonzalez to walk out on Atlanta in pursuit of a ring.

This year was meant to be his last year so he could have one last tilt at a ring. But injuries to the offence and a complete lack of running game put an end to that. I can see Pats trying to buy him out of the contract in order to have one last crack in New England.

Defence optional this week as KC put up 56 points against Oakland (when will teams learn that Ed Ried is playing the same dink and dunk offence he was at Philly?) thanks to 5 TD's from Jamaal Charles, Minnesota put up 48 points over Philly and even Arizona score 37. In fact, only 2 games had below 27 point scored by the winning team. Huge week for offences.
Packers rally from 23 points down at HT to win by 1 over Dallas. It just wouldn't be December without Tony Romo choking and throwing a pick with 1.30 on the clock.

Andy Dalton has to be the least consistent player in the league. Absolutely torched the Vikes this morning.
So glad Philly thrashed the Bears this afternoon and kept the Packers play-off hopes alive. We were shocking this morning. So many little mistakes, the O-line was poor and we're still struggling to make plays in the secondary. Not sure which is the bigger pressing issue in the draft but we might have to make a move in free agency to fix one or the other if we're to make a legitimate Super Bowl tilt next year.
I loved how the Ravens capitulated after being talked up as "the team nobody wants to play" all week.
The Colts showed how to beat the Chiefs, jamming the box and forcing Smith to throw deep. Even though Luck was average they won quite easily.
But the really stunning thing this morning was that Tony Romo didn't choke on the final drive and actually won a game.

Dem Packers. Nothing better than making the Bears cry. That Boykin TD :lol: I'd feel bad if it was any other team. Way to welcome back Rodgers and Cobb too - 48 yard TD to win the game. Gorgeous.
Everything else this morning was routine - Cowboys choked, Redskins sucked, Bengals turned up, Saints lit up Bucs...
Browns have fired Chudzinski and Vikes have sacked Fraizer already.
Play-offs looks thus:
Saints @ Eagles
Niners @ Packers
Lower seed @ Seattle
Higher seed @ Panthers
Chiefs @ Colts
Chargers @ Bengals
Lower seed @ Denver
Higher seed @ Patriots
I'm worried that we've got the Niners. All Falcons had to do was kick one more FG and we'd be hosting Carolina and I'd feel much better.
Should be a delightful choke-off in the Chargers @ Bengals game.
I'm picking week two to be Packers v Seattle and Eagles v Panthers in the NFC (Brees in weather is awful), Bengals v Patriots and Chiefs v Broncos (Rivers to out choke Dalton).

That loss this morning still stings. It was always going to be an up-hill battle when we lost Sam Shields and Mike Neal but to push them all the way and then have Micah Hyde go OVER THE BALL when they kicked the winning Field Goal sucked. Just not our year with injuries and having no real talent at safety.
Andy Dalton must be one of the biggest chokers of all time, to lose at home to a Phil Rivers lead Chargers team. They're 1 from 16 in prime time since he became starter. I don't know if he'll be in a job next season. Michael Vick could lead them to a title.

Quote:The Baltimore Sun Updated at 4:08 am The San Diego Chargers completed the biggest upset of the NFL's wild-card round, but one man in Pennsylvania is determined to challenge their viability in the playoffs. Daniel L. Spuck of Mercer, Pa., has filed a motion against the NFL to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania for "a temporary emergency injunction" on the basis that the Chargers should not have been in the postseason because of a missed call in the Week 17 game between San Diego and Kansas City. The filing came before the first round of the playoffs. Officials in that game failed to call an illegal alignment formation on the Chargers that would have allowed Kansas City kicker Ryan Succop a re-kick of a 41-yard field goal he missed with eight seconds remaining. Had he made the kick, San Diego's loss would have sent the Pittsburgh Steelers to the postseason as the final wild-card team. Instead, San Diego won in overtime and then beat the favored Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. The Chargers face the AFC's top-seeded Denver Broncos this Sunday. In the filing, Spuck suggested some possible remedies for the missed call. The NFL could suspend the playoffs for a week to 10 days, allow Succop to re-kick the field goal, or let the Steelers play the Chargers at a neutral site to determine who plays on. Online court records, which show that the suit was filed via inmate mail from the Pennsylvania corrections department, say the plaintiff has not submitted a filing fee or requested a waiver. http://touch.baltimoresun.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-78820662/ :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

That final play from Colston yesterday was disgusting. All he had to do is step out of bounds and he decides to attempt a lateral switch? #-o I really hope that wasn't a Sean Payton trick play.
Great performance by the Patriots though. They're looking very strong with LeGarrett Blount's run game and a defence that can still make plays even with those injuries.
