Flags

[McJet]

So, the disparity of penalties against the Jets, compared to the Patriots, once again is obvious. I’m not saying Zach and the special teams didn’t suck, what I am saying is, Belicheck’s team gets away with way too much and the Jets get flagged when they shouldn’t.
The TD on the Pats first drive in the 3rd quarter, on fourth down, their TE blocks Sauce into the end zone on a pass play, NO FLAG. Keep in mind, that was on fourth down.
On Zuerlein miss a 40 something yard kick, but, a Patriot came flying into his plant leg on the kick, isn’t that a personal foul???
The pick 6, Daleh was told the QB was hit too hard?!?!?!
G Wilson, in the first qtr, knelt on a run, after a reception, Pats S, Peppers grabs his foot and pushes him down, no flag.
You have to, have to call it for both teams.
That hit on a diving Mac Jones, lunging for a first down, Mosley, flag.
enough is enough.
There was a holding call on a run on Herbig, modest gain of 4 yards, but the penalty made it 2nd and 18 inside our own 20.
I replayed it 5 times, could not see the hold.
Meanwhile, the Pats oline has their arm wrapped around the neck of our edge rushers and it’s never, ever called.
Saleh, behind the scenes has to get that straightened out.
The entire Patriots team can’t have the Michael Jordan rules.

Rex used to talk to Refs about all of Pats bs they do and make sure they are aware of it. But Rex Ryan was the Jets Best Coach vs Billy Boy and even beat the Pats in their house in Playoffs. To bad GM change and bad drafts at QB caused Rex’s downfall. Jets got the right GM , Coaches but they are learning. Problem is ruining Zach isn’t acceptable

There were some questionable calls for sure. I’m not a tin foil hat wearing conspiracy theorist, but I believe some teams get the benefit of the doubt more so than others. I’ll leave it at that.

watching last night game, there was a ton of contact all over the damn field and no flags were thrown (I mean just egregious compared to the Jets game).

Conspiracy/No Conspiracy, we either had the worst refs in the NFL or the league clearly slants NE games

We probably do get the worst refs in the league every week
and the league slants for belichick and even more so brady

Since Joe Namath embarrassed Pete Rozelle in the locker room after Super Bowl III by saying "Welcome to the American Football League", The NFL has had it in the for the Jets, both in executive decisions(they sent us Jim Kensil; the other team needing a GM got George Young) and on-field calls(there was one rule that has only been enforced one time - against the Jets). I've given up hoping it would get any better.
If it happens repeatedly, it isn't paranoia.

We lost case closed

Yes. The Jets did lose, what I’m saying is, if the Refs did their job, even after all of the bad Jet plays, maybe they don’t lose.
The personal foul on Jones from Mosley, gave an extra 15 yards to a team having trouble on offense. BS call.
The Patriots TD, blatant OPI, that was on 4th down. Moves them back and they kick another FG, that’s 4 point swing.
Zuerleins missed FG, Patriots dives into his plant leg, that’s a penalty, a new set of downs, if nothing else a closer, makeable FG, that’s another 3.
I know, I know, if the Queen had balls she’d be king.
Those are missed flags in a game of very questionable flags, all of them against 1 team, the losing team.
You can’t lose the turnover battle and the referees and come out on top.

JFM obviously didn’t get the memo that QB’s are virtually untouchable now. Even momentum into the QB gets flagged. It’s a tough situation for a pass rusher nowadays. So many close calls that get called roughing. And what a difference it makes depending on which way it gets called.

yea
I’m starting to hate the game even more
The last 5-10 years and it’s getting worse
Every time there’s a big play even the announcer now says
“ and there’s no flag “
WTF
After every successful play we have I’m on edge of seeing a flag or that fucking ridiculous yellow market on the screen showing a flag is down on the field

And then you see the replay and you want to pull your hair out
“That’s a flag !!!!!

I hate this game
As the OP is stating
They ruin/control the game

Yup. Ever time we do something good, I wait 5 second before cheering because I expect a late flag to be thrown

and every time brady throws an incompletion I do the same thing. I think they hired an extra official just to throw those flags

funny i hear the same in AZ winning teams win & losing teams lose

 

[McJet]

They say there’s 3 parts to football, offense, defense and special teams.
There is a fourth, officiating.
They can make a winning team Lose and a losing team win.

I met a cheerleader a few years ago from the 60's she also was a miss Sunbeam as a little girl,

If you remember:
The 70s
They weren’t really cheerleaders
Only came out for the beginning of the game
Lined up for the players to run by and that was it never saw them again.
They had those glitter green outfits waving white Pom Poms.
We used to make fun of some of them because they weren’t so
( I’ll be correct ( slender) to wear those outfits

Yes @cheaterhater
I remember like it was yesterday
Can’t find a good pic
