Anyone still annoyed at the non tripping call?

Are you equally annoyed in the missed roughing the kicker?

Officiating was about as legit as it gets. Good, bad and missed calls both ways. That's about all you can ask for.

The roughing the kicker was a player trying to make a play and his momentum taking him to the kicker, completely different to a player deliberately cheating to avoid an opposition player making an important play at ridiculously important stage of the game.

Grow up

Officiating had no impact on the outcome of this game.

That's simply untrue and silly to say. Of course it had an impact. Was it the biggest or most important factor? No. But to dismiss it entirely in a game that close? That just doesn't work.

What's your plan? No officials?

there is always a level of subjectivity in every game so yes the officials impact every game. So what is your revelation?

Score was 24-21 Hawks...that happened at 4:50 of the 4th quarter with Seattle having the ball at their own 25..Lockett had his guy beat along the 40 yd line, and he reached out tripping Lockett , as he was falling, who would have caught the ball running...and didn't have a defender in the picture until the 50. Even if Seattle stalled there, the punt would have put NE inside their 20, instead they got the ball at the 36 and went down for the go ahead TD. Pats game plan was perfect...especially picking on Simon on those short slants, but, that non call would have given our Def. alittle more time to rest...maybe even pumped the OFF up and got a field goal...could of...should of....how a Official could not throw a flag, seeing the defender beat and falling down...REACHING out...to just catch a heel of a wide open receiver , isn't acceptable....nor is the call with 30 secs left. Still proud of this team and we have to accept this loss with grace and class, for NE, as stated....stuck to their game plan....wore the Def. out and hung on. Congrats to them.
