He looked really good as those refs kept throwing flags to move him down the field and score a TD before halftime!

God I hate the Pats! Part of me is like why even watch the Super Bowl now? Philly and Minnesota don't have the horses to hang with the pats....my early prediction is this
New England 34 Minnesota 16

I sure won’t be watching.
As I predicted earlier, TV ratings have been WAY down during the playoffs. This Super Bowl matchup isn’t going to help.
I bet you have to go back 10 years to find one with ratings as low as they’re going to be.

Definitely rigged.

Have you seen the video of the referee congratulating Brady as Time was expiring ?
Things that make you say, “hmnnn?”

SMH I couldn't see the game here in China.... Except for a handful of plays on FaceTime. (Couldn't convince MamaBevo to hold her phone in front of the TV for three hours). Surprised to to hear I'm no longer the only one that thinks the NFL is "fixed". |

(Couldn't convince MamaBevo to hold her phone in front of the TV for three hours). Surprised to to hear I'm no longer the only one that thinks the NFL is "fixed". It's hard to ignore... I've never seen the preferential treatment like I have with the Patriots this year. It goes back to the Steelers-Pats game, where the Pittsburgh TE caught a game winning pass, extended the ball over the goalline and won the game. It was overturned, and the Patriots went on to win homefield advantage. In both the Jags and Titans game, the Patriots were helped by a the refs for a critical drive. In the Titans game, the Patriots were about to punt, but suddenly got a first down when a false start was reversed. That drive, helped by the refs, helped the Patriots score and go up 21-7. In the Jacksonville game, the Patriots had huge calls that helped them march the field and get a TD before halftime, cutting into the Jags lead. Combine all that with the "Minnesota Miracle" where the Saints had the game won and a Safety completely whiffs on a tackle...and all of that has me looking at the NFL sideways Is the NFL rigged? I've seen quite a lot of shady garbage in the NFL that makes me question the legitimacy of the games |

I Penalty on New England in the AFC championship for 10 yards, are you kidding me? The Tennesee game I'm okay with because a few missed calls, still make me have a hard time believing Tennesee was gonna win that game, but Jacksonville very well could have won this game

My wife told me there was a critical call when, Jags had a 3rd and 11 and picked it up...but they called the play back, saying time expired and applied Delay of Game. Jags had to punt. She thought it was a critical play and very close call.
I heard the ref in the booth say, a few weeks ago, there is supposed to be a “one second grace”... so it’s not called unless it’s obvious.

I checked the box score... that was a crucial penalty. It would have given Jags a first down with 2:23 left in the first half. If they’d kept the ball, might have added to their lead and kept the ball away from Brady.
