Inb4 NE homers claim the rule was created to target NE specifically to prevent them from winning.

Another way to look at it is that a moronic PAT rule robbed us of OT in an epic game.

But the Patriots lost so I'm good either way.

Hard to do when their coach was a big proponent of a change there I think.

It was Belichick who pushed for the rule change. Karma!!!!! All year I was thinking wouldn't it be funny if this cost the Pats big time.
