Colts are getting absolutely screwed right now by the refs.

 

Refs pick up the flag on the center being 5 yards down field on the final Pats drive.

 

Hate watching the NFL now.  It's not rigged. It's just awful.

 

Why does "rigged" and "awful" have to be mutually exclusive?

The illegal man down field was boarderline. The Refs were bad Both ways in that game. The Colts did get hosed though. 

 

Yeah except for, you know, that the flag was already thrown.

 

If it was "borderline," who saw something so concrete as to overrule the flag and say no foul there?

I think it was a legit call that didn't have to be called but literally how do you pick up that flag?  You call a foul and bring attention to it only to say just kidding.  Refs are going to hear from the league on that IMO

No idea!! The 1st roughing the passer on Allen was weak as it was a total sell job by Allen. (Which top QBs always get) 

 

The Bills O faced a good Pats D.  You take away Jones pick 6s they average like 20 points a game.  The Bills O weakness is relying on Diggs too much.  They should have kept going to both TE that the Pats were giving them all game.

Nah! The Indy game Refs were much worse and cost the Colts a win.. that was close and I have no idea who overturned it.  Usually the good team get those kind of breaks.

They should mic up the refs during their discussions. The XFL and USFL provide full transparency while the NFL refuses.

 

The ref threw the flag for the center being 8 yards downfield while blocking no one. It's clearly a penalty. What in the world goes on in the discussion that would cause them to pick that flag up?

 

The NFL won't tell you.
