I guess a hug isn't good enough now if you incorrectly think the game is over but there's really 2 seconds leftIt's really incredible how much the press still hates us that this would be reported the way it was.
I was there and watched the whole thing. After the last patriots play, Belichick went to midfield and hugged Caughlin and talked to a couple of players. Then the yellow rope guys started coming out, and the Patriots walked toward their locker room.
Carey and the rest of the refs huddled and decided that the game couldn't end. The Patriots players had to run back out of the tunnel to run the last kneel down play.
This one is unexplainable. BB conceded with 2 secs to go and initiated running across the field. He did congratulate Coughlin. When have you seen the NFL demand that a play be run under those circumstances? How many times have you seen games end that way? I am not a conspiracy guy but I think this was the NFL’s twisting the knife!

In hindsight I think BB went onto the field to congradulate the opposing coach and team and then left the field a little early.
Moss got a lot of flack a few years ago for doing similar.
===================================This is a sad attempt to spin something.
Belichick looked up at the clock and it read ZERO. A NFL secuirty guy held him by the arm as he escorted Belichick to midfield. As BB hugged Coughlin, the refs were conferring about adding time to the clock. As Belichick was congratulating individual Giants, the refs added time to the clock. He was running off the field at that point.
Seau said that he was already at his locker when someone from the league told him they needed the Patriots out there to run another play. We're not privy to wheter Belichick was told or whether he decided not to come back out, whatever.
===================================
Spin,,,I call Spin on you.
I don't think BB meant to leave early, but he sure as hell did, something that Moss was cruxified for doing while he was a Vike.
Not that a big deal should be made out of this.
You compared it to Moss. Big difference. The clock read ZERO when Belichick was running out there. Moss left while the game was still being played. Heck, Belichick didn't even run to the locker room. He went out to congratulate Coughlin.
You're just trying to spin this in the worst possible light by comparing it to Moss and then saying Moss was crucified.
I've seen it several times, actually.
A coach cannot concede a game, unless by forfeit.
