    He may have been out but why on gods green earth didn't they review the play?WHY it determined the outcome of the game,it reminds me of the san diego pitt game a few years back, its like that wasn't suppose to happen and the refs don't know what to say but game over that's it, BS plus if u watched that ravens game it was the same thing, minnesota kept scoring when they weren't suppose to and miraculously the ravens scored three touchdwns in 2 minutes after they couldn't the whole game? what the f is up with that. I hate to believe it but it seems as though the outcomes are determined by the refs and I and I am sure the most of you go crazy over this game. BULL CHIT

    I didn't have the Steelers game on TV, so I checked in on he Pats while "We Are Marshall" was on commercial...so many BS calls at the end of that game that went the Pats way. Totally changed e outcome of that game.

    BS, hitting defenses receiver call on Edlemens TD. Gave NE an extra 15 yds on their onside kick. Kick only goes 9 yds but NE awarded the ball (say Clev touched it first). Then the worst PI call I've ever seen in my life, giving the Pats the ball at the 1.

    to put a cap, Cle last reception was helmet to helmet worse than the Edleman call, but I don't like to call the non-calls out, as I disagree with most and don't want to give this change any credence

    So what? Baltimore scored twice very late in the game. Did the refs award them points somehow? Baltimore scored those points because Minnesota couldn't stop them.

    We lost because we forgot how to play defence and Brown stepped out of bounds.

    NE won because Cleveland couldn't stop them. There's bad calls in every game, every week. The top teams win consistently regardless of bad calls.

    Humans are judging the calls and therefore it will always be inconsistent. It's not rigged

    Why no review on the brown play? anywhere theres $ involved u better believe it, patriots always come back somehow the legend of Tom Brady , bull chit, on every play of the game a penalty can be called, the refs control the game, NFL isn't even considred a sport its classified as entertainment hence WWF crap outcomes are determined but if u don't know who is gonna win the ROCK or Hulk Hogan I guess its fun, the same applies here it just sucks we lost.

    Didnt watch the game but Flacco threw his would be 4th pick of the game in the final drive, nullified by a PI call in their favor. Drive alive, TD to follow....

    Not sure about the Clev comment about not stopping the Pats. They did all day and the PI call was the 2nd play after the onside kick. It was not PI, thus they did stop them, only to have the ref fk them.

    It wasn't a scoring play or a turnover, can't be reviewed. What does it matter, it was out of bounds

    The refs stink to the point that it looks rigged but I think they are just that bad. Middle aged part timers trying to keep up with a fast-paced game.

    No, not everything can be reviewed. There are rules around what can be reviewed. It doesn't matter, the correct call was made. He was out, that's all that matters

    It was a possible touchdown that is a scoring play? Anyways I am waiting for Santa to swing by in a few weeks, and in the meantime im gonna watching WWE to see who the peoples champ is gonna be, its bs, the only reason New England wins is because of Brady so they can have more women watching were kinda screwed with that cuz Bens a big meathead. Also the super bowl last year wasn't A coincidence nfl blew the lights out cuz if the ravens continued to blow them out people would have turned off the game and advertisers would have lost millions, also not a coincidence that every super bowl the last 10 years are so close, keep believing, its bull chit but fun to watch, but I need to chill cuz I almost blew my lid on that last play

    I'd like to know why the clock wasn't stopped and Miami flagged for delay of game on the play before.

    I figured out the puzzle in week 4. Brees/Manning re-match in the SB this year. Manning wins.
    Yes, I think SB 40 was rigged. In fact, I think the outcome of all of them has been pre-determined since 2001.

    Yes! That was a game changing non-call! The rest of the team was trying to line up and the defenders were in the endzone with the ball! Only thing I can think of is that Pittsburgh didn't make it obvious enough by getting lined up and ready while it was going on!

    Yes it was but I liked it cuz we won LOL, but seriously ,so many games come to mind, Pitt Indi playoff game, pitt vs san diego with the famous troy break up, I believe the point spread show how rigged the game is, u mean to tell me thesuper bowl last year doesn't smell to u, a multi billion dollar company of 32 teams which equally share the revenues regardless of record, would have something like the lights go out for REELZ, I clearly remember the sand diego pitt game when troy slapped the ball out of a last second play ,he scored a touchdown pitt should have won 18-10 beating the spread, but the refs said there was a forward pass which is as clear as the day that it wasn't and the ref said game over no touchdown Steeler win 11-10 , o well who cares we won but common man the game is rigged

    So you don't care that the game is rigged as long as its rigged for your team. If its not than to use your word, it's BULLCHIT.

    Ok, there may be some, but not me of course!, who say that's simply whining and snivelling.

    I call BS on games being rigged. As long as there is human intervention, there's will be bad calls and controversy.
