The refs gave NE the game but the Ravens defense came up big with the sack and hold with 2 minutes left in the game, despite those 3 BS calls, illegal contact are you kidding me? All your precious Brady had to do was convert to a first down and the game would have been over. Flacco moved the ball down the field fluidly and the kick was good. We all know who isn't winning the AFC this year...

Did you not see the phantom pass intereference call on McCourty in the previous drive that gave them the first down on 3 and long behind their own 20? That was the biggest one but pretty much every flag thrown on that drive was bullshit.

The illegal contact call was wrong, it was pass interference. Reed or whoever it was grabbed Welkers jersey an flung him to the side to get that inerception. 

The kick was right over the posts, it was no good but is not reviewable due to some stupid rule. I know that all the Patriots success over these years has made you really sensitive but try not to cry when the Patriots have another succesful year.

Like amp said the best team in the AFC this year, and probably the league, is the Texans. Even with the refs basically handing the Ravens first down after first down they only managed to win by one on a field goal that was no good.

so some of these teams aren't as bad as the last few years then by the looks of this season or its early days,is it going to be a giants v jets super bowl or are chicago and dallas going to bring back the old days,looks liek the giants and GB will be toughing it out on one side,unless i have my conferences wrong

great for the NFl,you have to love how competitive the NFL is,

the NFL is coming over here in a few weeks i think,new england and st louis,is it one or two games,i can't believe they are going to have 2 games over here soon,its a slippery slope if you ask me

Oh, and I find what's going on with the Saints to be hysterical.

I know they fell to 0-3 but I haven't seen them play just yet.  What's going on with them specifically?

The defense is in the worst in the league giving up the most yards every game I think. Against the Cheifs, they blew a large lead heading into overtime and losing. It is hard to quess what has made them so bad other than losing Sean Payton as the is just as offensively packed and defensively weak as last year for the most part.

I say losing Payton and incentive to injure for money lost them that swagger to play defense at all.



Seems like Matt Schaub will not forget the win vs Denver soon after losing a piece of of his Ear on a helmet to helmet tackle Sunday. Thought it interesting it has been suggested that the leagues increased calling of helmet to helmet hits is what has caused an increase of passing in the league as of late. Less fear of injury leads to more risks especially to those receiving the ball.

Mark Sanchez apparently hates Tebow so much he had to beam him in the head to try to injure him.

That kick was right above the upright, I hope Bellichek gets a nice fine for grabbing an official who does he think he is...

Bellickeck thinks he is perfect. When he loses a game in that fashion, he gets mad.

I saw McCourty trip over his own two feet and miss an easy interception catch, I saw Harbaugh trying to call a timeout and get flagged for an unsportsmanlike conduct (15 yard penalty) that even had the commentators saying that this was ridiculous, and the fans using much less syllables. I saw Joe Flacco outplay Brady for the 2nd time in 2 meetings, but this time the kicker came through and you clowns lost like you should have in the AFC Championship.

That wasn't pass interference if anything that was holding, he let go of him after 5 yards and Welker tripped over his own 2 feet. To even make that call when they didn't call any of the other holds the whole game is just ridiculous.

If the kick went over the posts its good, as long as its not on the outside of the goal post its good. So like you said right over the posts, therefore its a good kick.

Stop being such a whiny baby about it, everytime you clowns lose you cry about the refs, get over it. All last year you said they would win the SB and I told you the Giants would beat them again, and they did, then you disappeared. Feel free to do that again buddy.

The Pats havent won anything ever since you guys got caught cheating, so I am not sure what you are referencing when you talk about "success"
