Chris Colinsworth can eat a bag of dicks too. Try being unbiased you cocksucker.

Don't forget the peeps who laid 7 figure bets on Phily. They're having a good night.

Yeah, I just don't get the fact that he keeps bringing up the 2nd TD as "controversial" The first, sure. The second, easy call.

The Patriots have now lost more Super Bowls than any team, except the Broncos, who have also lost 5.

Yes, more than the Vikings, and more than the Bills.

Only Jim Kelly (Buffalo Bills) has more Super Bowl losses than Tom Brady.

Guy tweeted SB QB matchup and victor in June.

Malcolm Butler is pissed he never got on the field. He clearly is leaving the Patriots in the off season.

Brady claims he'll be back. Gronk might retire. Brady threw some good balls, but also some terrible ones in that game. I wonder if age is finally catching up to him? Gronk doesn't love football, and it's been speculated that he'll have a short career, so his news isn't surprising.

That tweet is kinda amazing. Maybe he was one of the $1M bettors?

Gronk should retire. Dude's been beat up. And dances like he's FABULOUS.

Butler - Decision was odd, but the Patriots will never say anything interesting about it.

I really like the Toyota handicapped skier commercial. I think it was my favorite, followed by the Eli Manning/Dirty Dancing one.

Steelers point out Ertz's catch reminded them of something...

Maybe the football gods were punishing NE by not letting them tie the Steelers' SB wins?

Colts LB killed by illegal that had been deported twice.

That was pointed out (repeatedly) by Cris, who was wrong, and those people are also wrong. Jesse jumped, and turned while still completing the catch/falling. The rule makes it clear what that means.

Ertz was 15-18 feet away from the endzone... dude clearly put the ball away, walked far enough that even the NBA might have called it, and dove.

Your statement loses all credibility right there.

Seriously though...
Caught it at the 5 yard line, took two steps with control of the ball (it's now a catch) and dove. Ground causes the fumble when he lands.


Caught it at the 1 yard line, knee goes down with control of the ball (it's now a catch), turned his body and dove forward. His elbow then hits, which again, would be enough to count as a catch (and down if he was being touched) anywhere else on the field, and the ground causes him to lose control of the ball. Did it touch the ground during this bobble? Probably? Is the ball allowed to touch the ground during a catch? Yes. Was there sufficient evidence to overturn the ruling on the field of a TD? No, and that's why karma stuck his cock deep down NE's throat last night.


Wasn't there one in the Jacksonville game that also went the Patriots' way?

Fine, the NCAA would have called it.

1 - 3 steps, became a runner.

2 - No steps, was still falling to the ground from his jump, which is explicitly covered in the rules.

The knee and elbow being down eliminate the need for steps.

And for giggles, explain to me how the long Eagles TD was a catch by these rules you're referencing. He clearly lost control of the ball before establishing himself inbounds.

This is why they're changing the rules in the offseason. This is bullshit.

1 - Not true.

2 - It wasn't. I could not believe that they let it stand.
