    Unreal, GB makes a great defensive stand, sacks Brady, 4th and 21, GB defender runs into the punter and gave him a 15 yard PF automatic first down. Should have been 5 yards and re kick. Freaking refs.

    GB forced another 4th down at least. See if the refs figure out how to give NE another first down.

    Need GB to win this!

    Was coming here just for that! A blind man could see he didn’t hit the plant leg and was turning to avoid hitting him!

    Keep telling me that the refs don’t favor some teams a little more.

    I really need this game. Up one in my pickem league and I’m the only one that picked GB.

    They win and the money is mine!

    Lose and it could all come down to Monday night and tie breakers...

    It's so tough to pick against NE in NE. They simply don't lose at home.
    That roughing the passer penalty was a bad call, but I will never for a second believe refs are intentionally favouring specific teams. I just won't buy that.

    I gotta say, I didn't expect this game to be as low scoring as it has been. I figured this would be more like the Rams/Saints game earlier today

    Fumble was a killer. They were already in scoring range with it tied. No reason to leave your feet and not have 2 hands on that ball.

    Ugh, poor tackling.

    Fumble killed them, stopped momentum and swung to NE.

    If this is Gordons break out game, NE is going to be so much harder to defeat.

    Rodgers just hasn't been sharp tonight. I can't for the life of me figure out how NE has that effect on other teams players, but it happens every week. There's been so many throws that Rodgers makes in his sleep but he's missing them tonight. That always happens against the Pats

    They did it again.
    The Patriots lousy Defense has been fixed.
    They’re putting the ball in someone’s hand that’s running like crazy.

    Maximizing what you got.

    That was an amazing game to watch - Super Bowl caliber 15 round heavyweight bout. Actually glad the Saints won, maybe it will go to their heads and they won't take the Steelers as serious come December 23 or will have already wrapped up their Division.

    Yeah Rodgers is having trouble working miracles lately. He was doing it at the start of the season but has lost his midas touch.

    Ben>Aaron this year.

    Actually they were on back-ups for damn near every position on defense and were in that game really late until that fumble.

    A few trick plays because the Patriots weren't doing anything and boom! They fell apart!
