Three straight plays of the refs fucking the Pats.

Not a hold, probably should have been DPI (DB cant just cut off a wr route) and then no hold again. WTF are they doing?

I’m not sure I love the second hold (I missed the first that everyone seems to not like). I mean, he definitely held the guy, but the guy being held immediately made the tackle. What was the advantage of the hold?

So.. a safety is allowed to grab the receiver before the ball gets there? Is that the rule?

Romo is right, that was closer to OPI than DPI. One of those players was looking at the ball and it wasn’t the WR

The Henry non hold was so far from a hold, it was almost like the ref decided to call holding before the play started

This fucking team. The first hold was a terrible call. The second was completely unnecessary. A hold when you’re just trying to improve your kick yardage is terrible. Follow it up with a ridiculous play call and a punt in the end zone.

Bad calls suck, but you can’t fuck yourself when trying to overcome adversity.
