5 Straight 4th down flags as the Patriots were driving with less than two minutes left!
Does the NFL desperately want the Pats to keep winning to keep the undefeated hype alive?

Hey Tru Blu,
Read my question real hard. I never said I thought it was rigged. I never said anything definitive.
FYI: I'm not a Ravens fan. I won't disclose who my favorite team is, cause it does not apply to my question. Hint: It's not an AFC team.
You may be a "Top Contributor", but that means nothing in my book exceot you spend a hell of a lot of time on Yahoo working for free.

I dont think its rigged but after watching that game there is no way I could say that the Pats are better than the 72 dolphins

The NFL does have a problem but I don't think it's the officials.
However, the only good flag thrown was the one to the stands after the TD - Let the boys play!!!!!!
The NFL needs to wake up.
IF THE NFL WANTS TO MAKE THE NFL A LOT MORE EXCITING THEY NEED TO STOP THE CLOCK ON ALL FIRST DOWNS UNTIL THE CHAINS ARE SET. THIS NEEDS TO ONLY HAPPEN AFTER THE 2 MINUTE WARNING- NOT ALL GAME. COULD YOU IMAGINE THE GREAT FINISHES.
I hate when I see players lay a little longer on the player they just tackled or the team is waiting for the officials to place the ball so they can snap it near the end of close games... FIX IT!

I'm seriously beginning to think its rigged. There are so many blatant calls that arent being called, then the invisible calls-Being called.
I'm not a ravens fan, but they should have won that game. I'm not sure if its this particular officiating staff or what, but this is getting ridiculous. I'm tired of seeing crap calls being made, and undeserving teams winning because the refs "help" them.
This is supposed to be about the better team winning, not a popularity contest!!

I agree, that was very questionable...but the ravens just fell apart!
But that means the Steelers definitely have a shot at winning next week. C'mon the Pats should have lost to the Eagles and the Ravens...two horrible teams!

Yes the nfl is rigged. You know why? Cuz I'm a dolphins fan and we are 0 - 12 so apparantly we lost every game because the nfl doesn't want us to win... shut up baltimore you wouldn't make playoffs anyway lol

All the pats fans will bash you, but it was alot of bad calls. It was just awful, plus a timeout being called when he was stuffed. For it to work the whistle needs blwon before the play starts

How can you say the game was rigged? Both teams played well. Just Pats played better. It was a close game. You must be a ravens fan. A poor loser

Myeh. The Ravens blew it with that timeout call. You can't stop the Pats indefinitely.

I was thinking the same thing, its kinda weird that everytime they stopped them there would be a flag. I guess it wasn't rigged, but you never know.
