What a Tuel Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 (edited) Won the OT toss and elected to kick off. Jets take ball, score 6 and win. He should have cheated. Â I saw this and I think the official blew it. Â I heard the official say "you want to kick" or some variation of that, and I believe the Patriots guy thought he said "you want the kick", and responded with "yes we want to kick that way" thinking they were going to get the kick. Â The official should have never suggested an option. Blown call, and the pats fans are going to whine a lot now. The officials are out to get them you know.

He clearly said kick. I replayed it right after it happened. No doubt in my mind. Â I do think that hoodie has the team so conditioned to defer that it caused the player to screw the pooch but to think he wanted to kick is nonsense.

YoloinOhio Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015  I saw this and I think the official blew it.  I heard the official say "you want to kick" or some variation of that, and I believe the Patriots guy thought he said "you want the kick", and responded with "yes we want to kick that way" thinking they were going to get the kick.  The official should have never suggested an option. Blown call, and the pats fans are going to whine a lot now. The officials are out to get them you know. nope  Slater says he checked a few times with Belichick to make sure he wanted to kick if they won the toss. "There's not much to it."

What a Tuel Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 He actually said this post game? I replayed it too, then what was his confusion? Why would Belichick want to kick? I guess he did outsmart himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Player Available Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 The hoody*** Kraft*** Brady*** Jerry Jones, all had bad days. Some consolation after a Bills collapse this year yet again. Â Someone taking out the pats***'in the playoffs will gain a good part of football fans respect.

NoSaint Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I'd venture he did it based on stats. Which doesn't mean you always win, even if statistically speaking it's the right choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would certainly rather play the Jets than the Steelers despite their loss to the Ravens somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerball Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Apparently it is not nonsense. Except that I don't buy it. Someone as prepared as he does not kick in a possible one possession game. He's covering for his player, or he's covering his own ignorance of the OT rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
