It seems like forever ago when we were clamoring for the replacement officials to be replaced with the regular officials who know what they're doing, and how glad we were when it finally happened. To which I now ask...What happened? These guys were horrible on Sunday and although in reality it must be harder on them since they had no preseason, still - you would think that all that time off would have taken any Patriots bias and gotten rid of it. From the calls that we got and the ones the Patriots got away with it is obvious this did not happen.
It has been said that the officials could call holding on every play, and while that is not expected at least they could call it when it is blatantly obvious - on both teams I mean, not just ours. Chris Long was getting held all day long, not to mention THREE roughing the QB penalties we should have gotten on Bradford. Since when is it legal for the defender to drive the QB into the ground? Oh yeah that's right - when its the Cheatriots. Sure Fletcher tried to cheat too and got called on it three times in a row, yet when the Belicheats could have gotten offensive pi called in the end zone it went unpunished. Time after time in this game it was obvious that even tho the officials had been locked out, the Patriot bias remained alive and well in all of them.
