Pats Colts Game.... Refs????!?!?

Question

ok anyone else think the refs were rigging the pats colts game?

Answer 1

I can't believe they weren't calling holding on the Patriots offensive line. They did it on almost every play. Some of those calls were bogus (pass interference) but is it a surprise that the dirtiest team in the NFL would get penalized more?

Answer 2

They were without question trying to cost the Patriots the game. The pass interference calls against the Pats were terrible. An instant replay showed a Colts defender holding down the right arm of Randy Moss (No Call). The Pats were called for delay of game due to a Rosie Colvin spike after the interception near the end of the game. Two plays earlier a Colts player ripped the helmet off a Patriots player and through it (No call).

Then on Sports Radio in Boston today, there was talk of the Colts organization turning up the volume of the crowd through the Stadium PA system while the Pats had the ball. This would be worse than the so called Spy Gate! Bottom line, the Pats will run the table and go undefeated. Lets all say it! They are the greatest team of all time! Despite the refs trying to take the game away from them. The refs should be investigated! The Colts and the PA system cheating scandal should be investigated! Eric Mangini will also be back fetching water for the real coaches next year. He is done, washed up, finished!

Answer 3

Obviously, these calls were ridiculous and should be investigated. One reason they won't be, however, is because the Patriots won. If the Patriots had lost that game, they would have lost home-field advantage in the afc championship game against the colts, and all those bs calls would have happened all over again. The other reason is the league is still mad at the Pats for the whole videotaping signals thing. The NFL and the rest of the country is against the Patriots. It's a shame too because for most of the game the officials affected the game more than the players. Luckily, the better team still won.

Answer 4

Colts fans need to remember 2 very crucial BS calls in the AFC Championship last year that the NFL apologized to the Pats for. A bogus pass interference on Hobbs that led to the colts tying the game and a phantom roughing the passer on the colts winning drive.

Why are we complaining when we won? because maybe this bs will stop.

Answer 5

WOW a room full of idiots the refs gave 2 deep perfectly defended deep plays that gave the colts 1st and goal twice and oh ya they only got 6 points that's embarrassing no wonder everyone is lafeing at the colts the pats gave up over a 100yds on penalties and the colts still lost oh ya at home also. but sore sports will say the refs were picking on the colts be a man and admit your # 18 couldn't Handel the pressure oh did you see him making his baby face that game yup how about Brady's nope he sucked it up and marched the ball right down the D-fence face so much for that #1 passing D-fence hahaha

Answer 6

I don't think that the refs did rig the game. I'm a Colts fan. Some of the calls were questionable, however, you can't just blame the refs because pass interference is hard to define and call. Patriots won because they played better at the end of the game. Period.

Answer 7

The Colts should of won. The Colts got cheated. The Colts this, the Colts that. And the Pats fans are whinning.


GET OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

Wow---I knew you guys would be whining about the refs if the Colts won the game, but the fact that so many Pats fans are whining after they WON the game simply astounds me.

Give it a rest--the refs sucked it up to the benefit of both teams at different times. That holding call on the Colts' last drive was absolutely atrocious.

Answer 9

They certainly tried but it just made the Colts look worse given that they still couldnt win with all the calls they were handed.

Answer 10

Yes, all sorts of profanities & threats were screamed at the TV throughout the game :) However, it doesn't matter now, the Pats still pulled through!

Answer 11

Oh of course they were,how else were the Colts going to stay in the game.They had no chance to win so they needed to CHEAT to.They ought to be ashamed of themselves.
