Actually the ref said thatIt was talked about. All Pats fans said he was down. Everyone else said otherwise. I think that was the same ref that was celebrating the White TD in the end zone.
We all know the 5 Super Bowl wins and 10 appearances were illegitimate for one reason or another. I just wish Pats fans would own up to it.
The way your mind works conspiring different theories makes me laugh. Thats exactly how my brain works watching crime shows. Well guess we'll see if any of your theories are right in a couple weeks. I don't it as you do.....but that's okay!
Guaranteed TD? Gee, I wonder if the fact of the whistle being blown had anything to do with nobody chasing/tackling him.
Nobody in the building besides Lewis/Church had any idea upon initially seeing that play in real time, that Lewis had fumbled. Then, you have the fact that Lewis could have very well been touching Jack upon him gaining possession.
If the ref simply doesnt blow the whistle on a LIVE play... GAME OVER
And if Jacksonville (Barry Church) doesn't knock Gronkowski out of the game with an illegal hit to the head of a defenseless receiver. New England likely has a much easier path to a comeback in the 2nd half.
Only the Patriots could lose their most important (non-QB) player on a blatantly illegal hit, and have the public bitching about how THEIR opponent got cheated.
My goodness people...
Just like vs the 6-10 Dolphins... right?
Arguably the greatest TE in the history of the league... Talk about disposable!
Very well could have cost them two more Super Bowls in 2013 and 2014. 13 and 16 points in their AFC Title game losses.
No one is saying that they become a poor team without him. Any SB caliber team would not fall off the face of the Earth, by losing one non-QB player. However, saying Gronk isn't important? Jesus...
