No I agree, I like the Pats but Bellichick is a huge *******. And a cheat as far as I'm concerned, but I'm not going to let his bad blood spill over on the Patriots, who are amazing.

And I did actually end up watching the game, and think those ref's deserve a huge kick in the balls. Some bull**** calls and the game was heavily biased.

And quit whining about the officiating, you WON the freaking game, do you guys ever stop complaining? You won the game, you're 9-0 and still whining, I'd hate to see you guys 3-13. Lighten up!
With what Dungy said after "spygate", he deserved the cold shoulder, and as far as the refs go............pathetic. I thought I was watching a Michael Jordan game there for a little while. The better team won in the end, even if it was 11 against 18. Enjoy the Bye week Pats, you deserve it.

The irony of Patriot fans whining about bad officiating while they will defend the "tuck" ruling to the ends of the earth!!!

ok well here i go The so unstopple Pats almost got stopped and yes i know that the key word is almost. but it was not a blow out like i said and yes the COLTS missed Harrision very badly but as X said not excuses. And I will have to say the the Pats have a very good chance of going undefeated this year because they dont play very good teams the rest of the year. A couple of worthy app. but probably not.

And i said before that i liked brady well after this game i think he is a whiner like the rest of his fans on this forum. A call is a call and him barking at the ref when the game was over was just plain STUPID I thought he was a little above that but i was wrong. and as for billi(i dont care how you spell it) he is an idiot crybaby with not a hint of professionallism in his body. Blowing off Dungy like that , what is he like 12 years old or something what a JERK

and thats all i got to say about that

WHAT?? Dungy said nothing wrong after that whole thing to be treated like that. Come on dude, act like you've won before. It really is ironic that your whole "dynasty" thing started on a very very bad call. It was a FUMBLE....

Not according to the rule that was in the books at that time. Now on the other hand, I believe when you tackle a player trying to make an interception in the end zone, that should be pass interference. One of a few "questionable calls" that were sprinkled throughout the game. I just heard this was a first year officiating crew on that game, how does the NFL let a first year crew have possibly the biggest regular season game in about 20 years? Interesting to say the least. Being that the Pats didn't cover, like I said earlier, the refs still made their money. Vegas rules baby!

Well, if you want to talk about calls, there were some bad ones against the Colts too. I agree with you that the SECOND interference call was a TERRIBLE call, however, Moss' first TD should have been an offensive interference which wasn't called, he clearly shoved the defender out of the way. Also, there was atleast a 5 yard face mask on Addai in the 3rd quarter that wasn't called, not to mention the numerous holdings on the line. I can recall atleast 3 instances where Mathis and Freeney were being held at the line.

My point is not to make excuses, the better team won but hinsight is always 20/20, the glass is both half full and half empty depending on who's looking at it.

Good game overall though, lived up to the hype. I'm looking foward to these teams playing again in January, hopfully.

Congratulations to all of you Patriots fans, you have a lot to cheer for, also to Colts fans, this is a great team and they played very well yesterday. Also, thank you everybody for arguing your case on this thread in a very positive and grown up way unlike many other forums I've seen on other sites. Cheers to all of us!! This forum is full of a lot of classy sports fans!!

The outcome of that game was generally not a huge deal. How the teams do with injuries down the stretch will be the key. While I think that currently the pats are a slightly better team (and I saw bad calls BOTH ways)...a lot can happen and any given game could go either way.

If you want an example of what injuries can do....look at the Bears defense at this point last season to where they are right now. They've fallen from a top 1-2 defense to somewhere in the middle.

Lots of talk for this stage of the game....don't jinx yourselves anyone.
