Post Game Thread Pats @Broncos - Mile High Win!

I loved this shot from the game. 3 dudes sitting on the back of a Chinook watching the game.

Mitchell has been good but let's see if he can have a bounce back game against the jests. I want this kid to be something. Many thought the same thing about dobson and he flamed out.

I thought this was a TD or does the ball have to completely cross the goal line?

Break the plane. It should have been a td

That was definitely a touchdown. How that wasn't reviewed is beyond me.

You obviously didn't see the "catch" in the Giants game that bounced on the turf from two feet and was called a catch....

How was the game day thread? Did anyone turn off the TV in disgust?

I saw one clown complain about the game plan to give D. Lewis the rock during the first qtr. The fool was saying that Lewis is proven to be only good for a couple of yards per carry and that the game plan sucked. Of course Lewis ended up with over 100 proving once again that the Pats coaches know a little more then Chicken Little posters on the game day thread.

No that was a TD - if we had challenged that should have been the call. All scoring plays are supposed to be reviewed - apparently does not include TDs not called TDs.

But all turnovers are automatically reviewed. If it was called a turnover it would have been reviewed and reversed as a TD anyway without us even challenging.

Division Champs again!!!! First round bye also!!!!

Great win today!!!!! Our defense played great, and I thought our O-line was pretty good!!!

Anytime we can win in Denver and pretty much knock the Broncos out of the playoffs, I'll take it

People put a major emphasis on HFA that they lose sight of the Bye being more important. Yes it's understandable given playing at home is always best -- I want HFA. Yet a Bye, not HFA, is the biggest factor in getting to the SB. Check the Patriot stats to see what is the most compelling factor for a SB birth and you'll see it's the Bye. History provides pretty simple math: Patriots get a Bye and it's solid odds getting to the SB with HFA providing a marginal better shot. But if the Patriots don't get a Bye at all and the SB becomes steep odds.
Again I don't dismiss the value of HFA, I want HFA!, but the value of the Bye is quantifiable in its greater value than HFA. Basically HFA is three layers of icing on the Bye cake...

did anyone find out why ward wasnt also flagged for taunting when he was flexing at jules after getting the roughness penalty while losing by two scores?

A shout out to Blount.

This team hasn't made the superbowl on the road since their first superbowl. You wanna be home and hope the weather's in your favor.

this was the kind of game the pats needed to win IMO and one we havent seen. a hostile environment where the offense only put up 16pts and needed the defense to win and they did.

also props to the oline as von miller was not a factor

 

[bormio]

Butler does not get love for a game like today anymore. We take it for granted. He erased Sanders.

Refs were laughing too hard at what an idiot he was.

Kubiak is pretty terrible.

Ghost looks like he's back

Glad we didn't trade him, huh?

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

8 division titles for Nink.

That's a great pic. They all look so happy and proud!! Come here, work hard, be selfless, not greedy and this is the best place to be, if you want a very good chance to WIN IT ALL!!

I had my back turned - who was miked up and saying "Mother F***ERS" on that one play?
