NFL 2017

[Penner]

I heard rumors that Brady and Belicheck were supposed to announce that they will retire after this game- did they do it?

[The Conservative]

So yeah, the Pats should have had this game...

If that happened the Eagles winning wouldn't be on the front page.

Just a heads up, when the first call about the TD shouldn't have been if it was one or not, but the fact that the formation was illegal, but let's ignore that because it was against the pats and the pats paid off the refs right? Bullshit, that is what this was.

It appears as if the Eagles were in an illegal formation before the snap.

The fourth down trick play TS to Nick Foles was an illegal formation, should have been called back…extended WR to the top of the screen is off the ball (needs to be on the line with just the OT on inside him). #SB52 #Eagles #Patriots pic.twitter.com/tdX7hIpiGu

The NFL rulebook states that the offense must have seven players on the line of scrimmage. Philadelphia appears to have six, with all five offensive linemen and Torrey Smith to the bottom of the screen. Alshon Jeffery does not appear to be on the line of scrimmage.

Cry baby cry much?

That’s a valid complaint. There were plenty of other missed calls too, for holding and such though.

And Alshon Jeffrey being another step forward doesn’t change the defensive reaction to Foles running out for a pass - which is to say none at all.

Not when a blatant rule was ignored.

I agree, trust me I saw many and was frustrated at the refs.

I don’t have a problem, so long as it’s equal to both sides - which this was.

No, it wasn't... and that is the problem. If it was fair do you think you'd be saying that if the refs turned over both TD's?

[Okeefenokee]

The only path to respect for the Patriots is to respect that they didn't win.

Whiners can hang.

They played a close game, and came up short.

Tough shit.

Don't sully your name with bullshit whining.
