Rather his only miss of the season be now rather than the super bowl. Best possible scenario for the Pats right there.

He's going to kick one from the stands?

Or are the Texans going to sign him before the playoffs?

I have been to a few Raiders Pats and Niners games and the noise was there for all of those games I attended. You don't believe everything you read on the internet, also im not calling them liars I have attented games where sometimes fans was louder then others.

I don't have to read it on the internet, I'm seeing and hearing it live on TV.

They're not loud compared to some other places in the NFL. It's okay. There's nothing wrong with it.

 

[Lionel Richie]

Don't know what's weirder, that shit with the refs or Gostkowski missing. Great game though, I dearly hope Sexy Rexy gets to coach a team with an actual offense once in his lifetime.

 

[Trey]

Carpenter at least hit the upright. Better than Gostowski tonight.

Jesus fucking christ Tyrod.

 

[Line_HTX]

gruden with the announcer jinx.

Lol.

 

[LiK]

game changer right there. Should have an easy TD, but the Pats get nothing instead. Fuck the refs.

It's embarrassing.

 

[CrocMother]

Meh, Ref likely blew the whistle because Rex was running up to him from the field while the play was still going on.

Good play from Rex then. Technically he was immune from penalty because the inadvertent whistle should have been a complete do-over.

 

[MechDX]

False. Baltimore beat them few year back in playoffs.

Was Baltimore leading at the half?

 

[DrForester]

Refs blew whistle early and fucked up a big gain that probably would have gotten a touchdown for the Pats.

That some bullshit right there.

 

[RdN]

Let's just hope that this ridiculous error by the refs doesn't affect players spirit.

 

[brentech]

game changer right there. Should have an easy TD, but the Pats get nothing instead. Fuck the refs.

At least 2 defenders just stopped as soon as the whistle went, including the defender covering him. There is a chance he breaks from him, but a also a chance he gets dropped where he caught it.
There is absolutely no given that it was a TD.

He could kick one from the stands for sure

when an official sounds his whistle erroneously while the ball is still in play, the ball becomes dead immediately;
(i) If the ball is in player possession, the team in possession may elect to put the ball in play where it has been
declared dead or to replay the down.
(ii) If the ball is a loose ball resulting from a fumble, backward pass, or illegal forward pass, the team last in
possession may elect to put the ball in play at the spot where possession was lost or to replay the down.
(iii) If the ball is a loose ball resulting from a legal forward pass, a free kick, a fair-catch kick, or a scrimmage kick, the ball is returned to the previous spot, and the down is replayed.


ball should have been put back at the original line of scrimmage.

 

[TheFatOne]

Can't really blame Chung on the last one. He's just not tall enough to defend that. Thought he had good coverage.

 

[Team Alucard]

False. Baltimore beat them few year back in playoffs.

Playoff games aren't included in most statistics.

 

[metalslimer]

Why are people assuming it would be a touchdown. The bills defender stopped when the whistle was blown

 

[VeryGooster]

shady finding them holes

RIP pylon cam

 

[Trey]

Ref made mistake and fucked the Bills to appease the Patriot fans.

 

[friskykillface]

welp

 

[XenogearsX]

He was down

 

[FloydtheFathead]

That's a touchdown.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Was Baltimore leading at the half?

No Pats were leading. 13-7 until the Ravens absolutely just punked the Pats shut them out 2nd half.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Pylon cam is a blue screen :jnc

Great technology showcase, NFL.

 

[Officerrob]

He's short

 

[BMO = GOAT]

Amazing how a ref fuck up changes the momentum of the game.

 

[NomarTyme]

Please be a TD.

Ravens vs Browns? jesus christ.

Good fine.

 

[DrForester]

Maybe the refs should have blown a whistle to stop that TD...

 

[CrocMother]

Whoever blew that whistle will be working next Monday Night, Ravens vs. Browns. Just put them on permanent Browns duty

 

[Bloomers]

already feeling salty about this

They shouldn't have given the Pats the spot. Refs even tucked that up. Doesn't change the fact they completely changed the game with their ineptitude

 

[Dega]

That's what im saying

 

[friskykillface]

Ravens Browns


the fuck

 

[MechDX]

Not a TD. Knee was down a spot second before the ball hit the pylon

 

[Trey]

TD on the field, not enough to overturn. Let them get loud, who cares? They take after their QB in whining.

 

[The Albatross]

Good play from Rex then. Technically he was immune from penalty because the inadvertent whistle should have been a complete do-over.

There's no such thing in football as "immune from a penalty," especially unsportsmanlike conduct. Like saying Tomlin preventing that TD a year or two ago was a good play by the coach (though this isnt in the same league as Tomlins obv)

TD on the field, not enough to overturn. Let them get loud, who cares? They take after their QB in whining.

Looked like a TD to me

 

[cdyhybrid]

Well well well, the Pats got helped out by the refs. I'm shocked.

 

[XenogearsX]

Even if he's ruled down they're gonna score here anyway

 

[sf2fanatic]

They using Madden clips for that commercial for next week?

looked like he had just caught the ball when the whistle went off, but hadn't started to turn up field yet.

ball should have been put back at the original line of scrimmage.

How so?

It was a legal pass and Amendola had the possession. Seems to me that the call made was correct.

 

[TheFatOne]

I have to see the numbers but it seems like the Pats run defense is ok up the middle, but can't hold the edge. Would have to check to make sure, but that's what it looks like to me generally. Could be just a case of confirmation bias though.

game changer right there. Should have an easy TD, but the Pats get nothing instead. Fuck the refs.

Nah not an easy TD, but if Amemdola could break one tackle it's a huge gain. Ref took away that opportunity.

 

[VeryGooster]

NFL Twitter posting spoilers??

LeSean McCoy runs it for 27 yards and DIVES into the pylon.

#TOUCHDOWN! #BUFvsNE

To be fair, noise level has more to do with stadium design and acoustics, that stadium is one big tunnel. Either way crowd noise is a ridiculous thing to argue over.

 

[XenogearsX]

Well well well, the Pats got helped out by the refs. I'm shocked.

Seriously? That fucked them over. Look at the space he had after the catch. The only defender that gave up was all the way down at the end of the field

 

[aceface]

'Way before' .. the 0.8 seconds that it takes for a ball to travel 15 feet in the air, meanwhile, play would have been a touchdown.

Yeah, before he caught it. And no, it would not have been a TD because the safety stopped when he heard the whistle.

The refs messed up by blowing the whistle and then again by giving the patriots 30 yards for made up reasons.

 

[CrocMother]

There's no such thing in football as "immune from a penalty," especially unsportsmanlike conduct. Like saying Tomlin preventing that TD a year or two ago was a good play by the coach (though this isnt in the same league as Tomlins obv)

He was immune from that penalty though. No way that was unsportsmanlike based on what I saw

 

[The Albatross]

Good call on the TD here

Well well well, the Pats got helped out by the refs. I'm shocked.

Did you uhh.. miss that last Patriots drive where a would be 70 yard TD pass was blown dead by an inadvertent whistle?

 

[NomarTyme]

Mwwhahahhahahhaha

 

[DMczaf]

Bills gonna win?

 

[MechDX]

Pats got screwed . Not a touchdown
