That's what I'm saying. You got hit like I got hit for saying it, though. LOL I'm sitting here thinking, "Am I watching the same thing as them?" LOL I give up.
That's two PIs from that same ref. Two PIs of the nature that could be called on almost every play ....and is almost always NOT called. That's TWO on the specific ref of the kind of calls that almost are never called. TWO that all but put points on the board for the Colts and the other that took points off the board for the Patriots. That's TWO! on the same ref...
BTW, Brady's lackadaisical clock management cost the Patriots a couple of extra plays they could have used after the BS PI call on CHandler. All the love for Brady but he was WAY too nonchalant about the clock and it may have cost us a TD (instead forced to go with the FG due to lack of time).

Halftime takeaways: Colts O sharp. Pats missing Solder/Hightower. Colts run game executing as well as it has ever been in last decade vs NE.
I love that they have this "storyline". I feel more than ever that the NFL might be subtly fixed, you know, to keep it close, to help the storyline along. It was supposed to be a blowout, BUT OMG LOOK ITS CLOSE.
As Dungy talked about someone stepping up in the pass rush, my mind immediately said, "It won't be Chandler Jones." LOL Am I wrong for thinking that? LOL
Funny, in the first half the Colts punted 50% of the time. The Pats haven't punted once. If the Pats had more time at the end of the half, it would have been a TD. The ONLY time the Colts stopped the Pats' offense was when the Pats gifted them an INT with a wide open Edelman who tipped up the ball.
never hear that in this game thread..Pats lucky om the onside kick, ball lying next to Kline, reply shows Moncrief on it....then he has it when players untangled.
The thing is if you take away the gift pick 6 to the Colts, the Pats have pretty much dominated this game. The Colts' defense cannot stop the Pats' offense. The Pats haven't punted yet.
If by "the Pats" you mean the offense, this statement is accurate.. In reality "the Pats" are an offense, defense and special teams.. The D is having a poor night so far.

I agree that it was questionable (at best) clock management, but OTOH I'm not sure it can be blamed on Brady. That call probably came from the top, Brady wanted to hold the timeout and got overruled, so it seems like he wasn't totally calling the shots there.
But yeah, I think it should be pretty clear that priority 1 needs to be maximizing your shots at the end zone, and priority 2 should be minimizing the time that Indy has on the subsequent kickoff.
What I saw was a 5'9" guy trying to push his way through a receiver who had his arms out. That's not OPI regardless of where the back of Chandler's arm hit him.
