Man, the Saints got ripped by the officials...What stinker of a non-call... Totally robbed. I like letting them play but that was not even close. He wasn’t even looking at the ball and tackled the receiver before the ball got there.

He wasn’t even looking at the ball and tackled the receiver before the ball got there. Like you said, yes. Let them play, but if you aren’t going to make that call why even bother having officials on the field?... Just heard Sean Payton tell that the officials said the ball and contact occurred at the same time. I suppose it could appear that way if you were an official, running, turning your head, etc... but it illustrates that all sports move too fast to not take advantage of the technology available to get calls right. Imagine how many games were won or lost on bad calls years ago that no one could verify because the technology wasn’t even there...

However this KC/NE game turns out, it’s been a nail-biter to the point that you could bite past the cuticles and keep chewing your way up biting until you bite the first knuckle...

The NFL has become so hard to watch with all their replays and strange rules that the networks hired ex refs to explain to the fans what's going on.

I smell a Patriots blowout win vs. the Rams in the Super Bowl... I don’t think so. The Rams defense is legit. If Gurley is healthy their offense is no joke either. I think it will be a very close game. Rams should be a slight favorite I would think.

Patriots again! WTF? So sick of Brady and his crew. Now we'll have to hear the media fellate Tom Brady for another two weeks. [img class="smile" src="//storage.proboards.com/6828121/images/ZVUxStWfuuhWOBrKaeKL.gif" alt=" "]

They might as well get WWE referees to do these games... I’ll give NE their just due. Once they got the chance in OT they did what they always do. Besides, in 15 years we may be getting sick of all of Mahomes records and post-season success... of course by then, I’ll be eighty, so who knows what I’ll know or not know.... Damn. Eighty? I never thought I’d get past my mid fifties...but here I am...

The roughing call was terrible but that was also a play where Edelman was held and that wasn’t called and followed a play where Berry rode Gronk down the sideline like he was a horse. In general I like to see them let the guys play but that was ridiculous. Give KC’s coaches credit for scouting the refs and knowing they could cheat on grabbing the receivers all game as Romo pointed out but in the end it wasn’t enough for them to keep up. By the end of the game KC’s defense had nothing left.

The Patriots & Brady (probably ONE OF THE BEST QB's EVER) pulled it out again = AMAZING.
I learned a while ago; do not bet against BRADY & the Patriots..

You can't just let him sit back there and pick you apart, but that's what happened on all those third down conversions the Pats had. I feel bad for that KC linebacker that lined up offsides and nullified what would have been a game clinching interception, he has to think about that all off season.

When that got called back, I knew that I had seen the rest of the movie several times before...I think Mahomes made a great effort that will help him in his future playoff endeavors...Strange how low the score was until the fourth quarter explosion...I don't know if I'll bother to watch the Super Bore...I've had enough football for the year. If we don't get some baseball soon, I'm going to have inject some...I'm getting pin-striped and navy blue balls...
