How about an even simpler thing???

The ref tosses the coin. Visiting team makes the call and wins the toss.

The ref then turns to the Captain of the Visitors and says......

"Do you want the ball? YES or NO"

Sorry, but that's not the whole story. Teams have four possible choices at coin toss: 1) Whether to kick or receive, choose field direction, or defer. Last week Dak chose to kick and that should been the end of it with the Rams having THEIR choice in the second half. Ref interfered by asking him to clarify and eventually Dak said defer.

Slater made the same mistake once and nobody asked for clarification.

They've already been kicked in the nuts by the federal courts for the bullshit they tried. The DA better have a solid case with solid evidence. Kraft has much better lawyers than these clowns. Notice they haven't said 'what' the charges are.........do they even know what a felony actually is??


This is a lame attempt to get him to settle.....

The New England Patriots are the only team in the playoffs who are winless when giving up 20+ points in a game this year. We are 0-4.

Of the current NFL QB’s playing in the NFL. Ryan Tannehill has the most victories against the Patriots with 4.

Dare I guess who "of the current QB's" has played the Pats most is?

That team was too reliant on Wes Welker and Wes went down with a torn ACL the week prior to that game. The next year when Wes returned the Pats made it to the SB bowl and ironically (and arguably) lost due to a pass Welker should have caught.

I said a few times that I didn't care if they won it, just getting there would be great.
4 in a row is a great accomplishment and my hats off to the bills and their fans for a great year.
for the Pats...
Oh well.
Next year.
4 in a row was a great accomplishment and, to me, not winning any does not tarnish it, though winning 1,2,3 or 4 each would have magnified the feat. I'm mocking that it's being celebrated in isolation when juxtaposed against a team that has accomplished far more.

Brady has been to 1 out of every 2 Super Bowls played during years he started more than one game and he's won 1 out 3. Jim Kelly went to 1 out of every 3 Super Bowls, but did not win any....

Which is better? 4 straight and 4 total or 3 straight and 9 total? I'm not saying the accomplishment is meaningless, just that as a stat it's more of an an anomaly and there are better stats out there.

I agree 100%.
Dolphins 16-0 or the so many records that Bill, Tom and the Pats own?

Pats finish 2007 at 19-0 vs Pats go to 5 more SBs and win 3 plus go to an additional 3 AFCG games
