Texans fans have been a class act on this site and on their own site from what I've read, no need to ruin that because of the mindless ramblings of one village idiot as others have noted. Gracious to the point that I felt for them in their loss, unlike the jets who can't be beat into oblivion enough for my liking.

Great team and fans, welcome here anytime.

Seriously. I was watching the game with 2 fellow diehard Patriots fan, a casual Pats fan, and a Texans fan. I was the only one who thought that PI call was legit. The rest thought that it was uncatchable. I guess it requires pointing out that the ball has to have been uncatchable even if the PI hadn't happened.

In their world, it would be pretty good strategy to tackle opposing WRs as soon as the QB releases the ball. It'll always be uncatchable.

The one call that I think may have been a gift (can't confirm, since the game isn't up on Game Rewind yet) was the defensive holding flag on the 3rd down pass to Aiken that kept the first drive alive. I forget who it was (Brandon Harris?), but he was flagged for holding Hernandez, and it looked to me like it may have been inside 5 yards.

Listen to Victor Conte on Joe Rogan's podcast, and you'll realize PED's are far more wide spread in the NFL than most people realize.
Probably all true.

I don't hesitate to put it on the internet, we're effectively anonymous here, and our posts hold little weight, so I'll just go ahead and say it - logic tells me Watt's weight gain seems unnatural.

But I'm not going to hold it against the guy, merely use it to potentially get under the skin of any righteous Texans fans. It was several years ago that he added said weight and I'm sure there's plenty of Patriots who used the same "diet" to get ripped, or like you say, stay ripped in the offseason. NFL is a dog eat dog world.

If we replaced the jets with the Titans, the Pats might have to actually try every now and then.

I wish I could say I borderline cared what some random has to say but I don't.

He was holding Welker, and though it went beyond 5 yards to about 8 (He held him to one yard beyond the 1st down marker, and the play was a 2nd and 7) I've seen the refs frequently leave that one alone.

Then again, you can't hold inside the first 5 yards either.

Don't forget the OPI on Hernandez though, that was bizarre.

the patriots borderline cheat on everything according to opposing team fans. there's no such thing as borderline cheating, if you cant explain what's cheating about it then you can't call it cheating.

They actually had a close up at one point of how the O-line was holding Watt down from jumping for the block. Sheer coaching genius. I suppose you could call it holding but it would have been really hard to pick up.

As far as all of the PI's went... Hernandez's was ridiculous but the one I couldn't understand was the Arrington call against Johnson. Is it just me or did Andre jam his forehand into Kyle's face and hold it there the whole way down the field?

Gruden, barely watching, says good call and then even as they show the replay of Johnson pushing off for a good 5 yards he says there isn't any question about the penalty. I had a question. Why wasn't that offensive interference? It was a terrible call.
