The way the 4th quarter went, nothing can convince me someone made a deal with the devil. Anyone else out there think the same? Which one was it that made the deal?

Hey, I'm not hating. I'm not accusing refs of being anti-this or pro-that. Just a remarkable run of events that let them get that lead. Personally, I don't think any of them ever had souls, but I won't go into that.

queue all the complaints that the refs were anti-raven. The Patriots have been in 3 competitive games this year (Colts, Eagles, Ravens)- none of the others were even close.
NE got the shlt end of the stick against the Colts (egregiously bad calls throughout the game, but that is how it goes in Indy - aks Jag or Steeler fans and see if they agree).
The Eagles game had a couple of key bad calls against NE (at home too) - particularly Moss' pass itnerference which took 7 off the board that could have broken the game wide open.
The Ravens lost the game last night through their own stupidity. The timeout was the worst of it all - and their players are complaining that they didn't hear a whistle - THEIR DC CALLED A TO - how do you blame the officials for that? The Pats jumped on the next play which by rule means the play didn't happen. Then there was the hold on Watson - pretty clear that it happened, even though there was no need to even make contact with him. Watson stunk up the joint last night; but he was held.
The only questionable thing I saw (and I am a NYG fan, not NE) was that Gaffney had control of the ball on the winning score. If it was ruled out, Brady still had 3 more shots at the endzone from the 8.
There is bad officiating; there are fixes too - but the spread was well covered already, so relax people, this wasn't one of them.
Anyone that thinks the NFL wants NE to win is high. After the whole Belichick thing, they want nothing more than to see the Patriots crash and burn. They'd MUCH rather have Romo and Manning in the SB than Brady.

why would you ask that...it wasnt the patriots, it was the ravens who gave the game away...i dont see it as the pats won the game, i see it as the RAVENS LOST IT...cuz they coulda had it in the bank a few times and they just didnt get it done...all those penalties on that last drive, throwing the refs flag off the field...no class at all..then whats his face talking about how hard it was to play against the patriots AND the refs...what a bunch of crap

Belichick IS the devil. Maybe he sold his soul to himself though.

Randy Moss...did you see his post-game interview? He said the Ravens trashed talked and that his coach didn't coach them and raise them that way.
