Haha - not remotely. Patriots fans since the Grogan years.

Just seeing these 'off the ball', late game calls in so many recent games rather than a 'let them play' approach I feel is not helping the game.

Look at this video and it shows how the defenders pushed the WR into the other back. Should have been a no-call TD.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. I saw the receiver's arms extend. That's a tell the refs look for. I think it was the correct call.

To me, it seems meh. they're still playing in Kansas City. I wonder how KC fans feel about it. I mean on one hand, Missouri fans won't have their taxes going towards funding a stadium for a billionaire, but on the other hand, arrowhead is iconic.

In 2031... Is this a ploy to get KC, Missouri to build them a dome?

It was bad enough when local politicians ignored a good part of their constituents and voted to help make rich people even richer, but then state governments got into the game…

Officiating?

Don't quit your day job?

Finneran did not cave really ... but he did finally agreed to some important, but not extremely costly, infrastructure improvements around Foxborough. Let's not give him too much credit for anything. But for Finneran, the Patriots likely would be playing in a South Boston stadium that would have been a boon to the local economy especially in light of the general weekness in commercial real estate in that area over the last ten years and the associated maasive residential real estate tax increases that have resulted.

Honestly, I don't understand the outrage either. The only people that should care are the people in Missouri and Kansas. Other than that it certainly doesn't matter to me where the Chiefs play.
