AFC Championship - Patriots Hold Off Jags (2 Viewers)

[NutterButter]

Surprised so many people think the "script" for the nfl and the refs is to have the hated cheating Pats win all the time. 

People that actually believe in these conspiracy theories are just weird.

 

[msudaisy26]

It’s actually Wes welker in disguise.

Welker took so many hits I wouldn't be surprised if he tried to sneak on the field, if he knows where he is.

 

[yabahos]

Ball was snapped with 1 second on the clock and delay of game is called after the 1st down was converted

Nope.  Watch it again.  Clock at 2:23, play clock at 0, center still has the ball.  Granted we don’t get the official clock but have to assume TV is synced with stadium.  

 

[Cowboysfan8]

lol, if Gronk comes back in this game, the concussion protocol is a joke

Yeah, he's done

 

[McJose]

If Gronk comes back, the concussion protocol is a complete joke

lol, if Gronk comes back in this game, the concussion protocol is a joke

Somebody owes somebody a Coke.

 

[ConnSKINS26]

I’m sorry, you just speared a coworker in the helmet and he got up wobbly and you’re flexing your muscles and whooping to the sky? If not intentional certainly wasn’t too upset about it. 

Co-worker is a pretty generous term there. They're still competitors, despite sharing a union. Just a weird way to twist the situation to fit your POV. And the hit caused an incomplete pass, celebrating after doesn't imply it was malicious. 

Still a penalty either way. 

 

[Buffaloes]

Nope.  Watch it again.  Clock at 2:23, play clock at 0, center still has the ball.  Granted we don’t get the official clock but have to assume TV is synced with stadium.  

You are right there. My bad. I was thrown off at the call being made after the 1st down was made

 

[Snorkelson]

Why was the back judge (#112) celebrating with the Pats in the end zone after the TD? He's all smiles back there partying with them.

Fleming turned to celebrate and almost trucked him over

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

  I can't believe people are arguing the delay of game.  That was obvious.   

I just came in and the amount of complaining about what's been a pretty good football game is amazing.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

Not having Gronk gonna be a big blow to the Patriots 

 

[identikit]

Big play right there.

 

[The Frankman]

HUGE first down by Yeldon.

EDIT: RUH ROH CAM ROBINSON DOWN.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Not having Gronk gonna be a big blow to the Patriots 

Really??

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Co-worker is a pretty generous term there. They're still competitors, despite sharing a union. Just a weird way to twist the situation to fit your POV. And the hit caused an incomplete pass, celebrating after doesn't imply it was malicious. 

Still a penalty either way. 

He was chirping long after Gronk was drunk legging it to the sideline

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

Tony Romo must not have watched Borles last weekend against the Steelers.

 

[sho nuff]

Great job by Yeldon...and as I type this Romo makes the point that Bortles our that one in the right spot to let him run...unlike a pass in the first drive.

 

[bucksoh]

Say it every year, this year no different to beat the Pats you also have to beat the Refs.  Good luck to the Jags.

 

[ShamrockPride]

Not having Gronk gonna be a big blow to the Patriots 

Refs will make up for it don't worry.

 

[NutterButter]

I just came in and the amount of complaining about what's been a pretty good football game is amazing.

I like these game threads, but the amount of whining about obvious calls (helmet to helmet and delay of game) and 50/50 calls (if that) is insane.  

 

[fruity pebbles]

Cam Robinson as important to the Jags as Gronk is to the Pats

 

[ConnSKINS26]

People that actually believe in these conspiracy theories are just weird.

Right. Goodell and the league office constantly investigating and suspending Pats over the years just screams conspiracy. League office should get on the same page with their complicit refs I guess. 

 

[Tool]

 Jags dominance is highly reliant on coaches minimizing how bad Blake Bortles is. Also everyone else has to not make mistakes... Jags really need a long drive here.

Jags wouldn’t be where they are if Bortles was as bad as everyone says he is. I don’t care how good their defense is.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Robinson would be a huge loss for the Jags.

 

[Riversco]

Give a lot of credit to the Jaguars for continuing to call play action passes and I think Bortles has been PERFECT every time the Jaguars run it and it goes for huge gains.  Story of the game so far.

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

NFL via Goodell just sent out that the Pats only have to get 6 yards for a first down in the 2nd half.   More rules to change as needed. 

 

[JaxBill]

Not ####### good

@Jaguars: INJURY UPDATE:

Left tackle Cam Robinson has a shoulder injury and is QUESTIONABLE to return.

Josh Wells in at LT.

 

[McJose]

He was chirping long after Gronk was drunk legging it to the sideline

Looked to me like he was ranting about the call more than celebrating the hit.  

 

[NutterButter]

Right. Goodell and the league office constantly investigating and suspending Pats over the years just screams conspiracy. League office should get on the same page with their complicit refs I guess. 

I'm not actually sure the conspiracy.  Is Goodell involved or are the refs just doing this on their own b/c they love Tom Brady?  

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Jags wouldn’t be where they are if Bortles was as bad as everyone says he is. I don’t care how good their defense is.

He's just an inaccurate passer by NFL standards. He makes decent decisions and obviously brings a mobility factor. 

 

[Ditka Butkus]

Nope.  Watch it again.  Clock at 2:23, play clock at 0, center still has the ball.  Granted we don’t get the official clock but have to assume TV is synced with stadium.  

This is correct.. I called delay of game before the refs , from my recliner

 

[ConnSKINS26]

Say it every year, this year no different to beat the Pats you also have to beat the Refs.  Good luck to the Jags.

So Goodell and the league office hate the Pats. But the refs who work for them love the Pats. Interesting conspiracy you've got there. 

 

[Ghost Rider]

Say it every year, this year no different to beat the Pats you also have to beat the Refs.  Good luck to the Jags.

Did you not get the memo that Steelers fans, after Super Bowl 40, are not allowed to complain about another team supposedly getting bad calls in their favor?

 

[McJose]

Yeldon hit the X button there.

 

[fruity pebbles]

Awesome spin move

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Jags wouldn’t be where they are if Bortles was as bad as everyone says he is. I don’t care how good their defense is.

When you give an NFL QB the time he's getting today, he's going to look good. I don't think he's been touched 

 

[ShamrockPride]

Jags can't give up the lead from here on out. Too easy for the refs to keep the W with the Pats if they take the lead.

 

[McJose]

FAKE IT

 

[The Frankman]

Nice near INT by Bortles there.

MASSIVE FG ATTEMPT.

 

[Ditka Butkus]

Ballsy call gets them 3

 

[NutterButter]

Big kick.   Points aren't going to be easy to come by.

 

[timschochet]

Damn this guy can kick. What a leg.

 

[The Frankman]

It's good! Lambo from 54 gives the Jags a 7 point lead!

 

[McJose]

That was a decent kick.

 

[Ghost Rider]

I would not have kicked that, but kudos for the ballsy call and trusting their kicker. 

 

[JaxBill]

Before kick...Romo giddy about possible field position

After kick.....crickets 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Looked to me like he was ranting about the call more than celebrating the hit.  

Eh, maybe. I don't like Church so he doesn't get the benefit of the doubt

 

[The Frankman]

... "Ready Player One" looks like a bootleg Sword Art Online... which is a bootleg .hack// series.

EDIT: Many won't get the references here.

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

Lambo came to play!

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Before kick...Romo giddy about possible field position

After kick.....crickets 

?

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Hopefully we get a full Jay Feely breakdown of that epic kick.
