"But bad calls happen all the time. I'm sure NE has gotten some calls over the years as well."Can you say "Tuck Rule?" Its a rule, but no one had ever heard of it until it saved Brady's butt.I do think the announcers have kissed the Patriots behinds for the past 4 years, but they earn that by winning 3 of 4 super bowls. Its one of the perks. And lets not forget that most of these announcers aren't Mensa candidates, they are hype machines with a micorphone. Martz was a genius when he was winning, but once they started losing he passed to much. Sherman was the model of what a Coach/GM should look like until the Pack fell apart and then he couldn't keep his team together. Randy Moss is the greatest WR in the history of the game until he starts having bad seasons when all of a sudden he isn't a team player because he won't go over the middle and take one for the team. Announcers need to talk and if they find something that gives them something to talk about they jump on it with both feet (see Terrell Owens). The Patriots are a great story and have been a model franchise for the past 4 years so it makes sense that the NFL likes them.I, for one, am glad that this storyline is over for the year, however, and we can focus on the present day accomplishments of the Broncos, Colts, Steelers, Seahawks, Bears, and Panthers. These teams deserve recognition for what they have done this year so hopefully the announcers can focus on them now.On a personal note GO BEARS!!!
