Why does the league love the Pats??

    There is a TON of talk that the Pats get all the calls and I agree. If someone sneezes on Brady they call it.

    My question is why do they get the calls and why does the league seem to want them to keep winning? Belichick is the best coach and Brady is the best QB. They do not need anymore help from the league.

    You would think after the video scam, deflate gate etc. that the league would actually not want them to do well. Also, the league has to realize a lot of fans are getting sick of the Pats.

    So the question is why does everyone think they get help?

    All of that doesn't overrule the feel good story of Kraft and BB taking a losing franchise and building a powerhouse. It almost mirrors the Steelers in the 70s or the 49ers in the 80's. I'd say the Cowboys but everyone outside of Texas can't stand dem'Boys

    If 50% America loves the Pats and 50% hate, then 100% watch.

    If you have doubts, check:
    Tuck rule
    Spygate
    Deflategate
    TD overturns
    Penalty overturns

    There are three games this year in which the Pats had a game deciding TD overturned. Or actually, two TD's over turned and 1 Patriot TD determined to be inconclusive. With that said, the Patriots should have had 3 more losses and been 10-6. They would have still won their division, but would not have had a first round bye.

    The cheats is Goodells fav team. ( For real) giving them all the calls is his way of payback to all of the fans who hate him and most of those are us. Thats why we get screwed over. Mitchell's comments after Ju Ju getting suspended didnt help either

    Plus he owns the cheatriots and the NFL. He knows what was on those tapes. They destroyed them immediately after seeing what was there. Had to be bad.

    I saw the 3 stooges having a nice convo during the Falcons game..belicheat ..kraft dinner and Goodell. Somebody should hire the guy who tapped Haleys phone and do it to Goodell. I bet he would end up in prison for fixing games.

    The league took 2 first round picks off them, fought like hell to suspend Brady.

    If they did 1/10 of that to the Steelers, you wouldn't call it a love affair.
