I'm sick of this type of argument. This is a season in which most games are down to the wire, in many cases due to our own mistakes. We can't blow out teams like before, so game winning or losing calls (or no calls) become all the more important. The Pats should have won both the Jets and Panthers games if a bad call or bad no call was made. The Pats and all of us have every right to be pissed.
Indeed. The league is being designed to come down to final plays. That's part of the "parity" ideal. The notion that the refs can't be blamed for lost games is about as stupid as it gets. One would think Patriots fans would know better after 2006 and 2007...
