I was at the game! I was sitting on the corner of the endzone where the 'penalty' occured. The flag was thrown on the hit, maybe a defenseless receiver penalty. Then the refs discussed and came back with taunting. Taunting!! There was no repay of the play at the game so I don't know if there was anything that could even be considered taunting but I sure didnt' see it live.
That call blew me away. 3 refs discussed and decided they didn't want to pick up a flag?! I truly don't understand.
Many others have made the point that you can't just blame a lose on this one play. That is very true. But this play was no a patriots' play, it was a refs' play. I can accept when we play badly and lose but when a bad call and decision contributes I get upset.
There were a couple of times when Brady missed Welker that could have kept a drive going or sealed the game. One he was 2 sets in front of the defender and NOOO help anywhere around. If Brady had hit him in stride in stead of throwing way behind him he would have been gone, game over.
It was good to see Pat's nation out in force at Mile High!!
