But for some to make the stretch that the refs make a conscious effort to aide the Patriots... well that's just crazy. And, all I heard this week was how this crew (as individuals), historically, called more penalties against the Patriots than most. So they made up for that by not calling any against them? Once you go that route, you never come back home.

Bahahaha, not one pen called in Pats O or D all game. To think they played a perfect game without commiting one penalty is beyond delusional. Especially because here's literally dozens of videos proving they were commiting penalties already posted all over the web. I'm not kidding, pains me to say it, but I think I'm done with the NFL after this. It couldn't be anymore obvious actually...

Pretty sure that is a textbook hold. Result would have given Jags ball back with chance to win the game.

But, we probably would have taken a knee.

If they wanted to, you could call holding on just about every play, on both sides of the ball. There are levels to everything. Obvious and blatant holds, quick hold/release, etc. If they called everything, we would all complain the game is 4 hours long and too slow. Also, refs can't see everything. You hope they do get the big ones. An alternative is to make every play challengeable, including penalties. Then each team could challenge the most egregious calls-- the ones that determine the outcome of a game. Other than that, we are stuck with the system we have. The teams that win will be quiet, and the teams that lose will be most vocal. I see no end to that.

I agree, but how?
