Why do Patriots fans feel the need to come here, sign up, and then defend the refs? It's almost as if deep down they know they get favorable calls and feel the desire to prove otherwise to justify their success. It was a one score game. There were a lot of plays on both sides that each team would rather have back. But a close game can go either way depending on how the refs tip the scales. Get the majority of the calls, good chance you win. If you dont get the calls, probably won't win. That's the nature of a close game decided by a few big plays. Could easily argue the Jags outplayed the Patriots but we didn't do so enough to overcome some critical calls not going our way. Obviously the Patriots made big plays when it counted. It's too bad the big play our team made (Jacks fumble and TD return) was brought back by a lousy call from the refs. Sure it looks liked you could have called pass interference a number of times by both teams. Why were only the Jags whistled for it? Would have been nice had the refs evened it out by calling some of those 4th quarter muggings of Marcedes Lewis. But they didnt. If the refs had evened up the penalties, then I like the Jags chances.
