It does seem odd that the Packers were allowed to lose that game Thursday night (not to mention 4 of their last 5) if the league and it's officials are supposedly part of a consipracy to help them win.

I explained what calls/non-calls I objected to, and specified I don't think its a big conspiracy, I'm just not interested in debating.

12 -3 penalties and you say the Bears should have been flagged a few more times. What's there to debate?
I thought the Patriots were on the end of some ticky tack calls tonight. Specifically the Gronk offensive PI and the call on Chung on the 3rd and goal sack. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they lost but the officiating was poor from what I saw.

Not a big fan of either team but I must say Denver got every "home town call" or so it seemed.
Do not mistake KINDNESS for WEAKNESS!
Best to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool rather than open it and remove all doubt.
I view the Patriots differently than many people, but I find it hard to believe that anybody really feels good about seeing a potentially historic season derailed by Tom Brady losing his top 4 targets.

The NFL needs to figure out how to keep knees from getting hurt. And i don't mean not hitting someone's knees, they need to do actual work and figure out how to keep it from happening. Its getting really bad.

I can't imagine what anyone could come up with to prevent knee injuries. They happen in every sport. Joints are just not made to take the kind of punishment athletics are subjected to from motocross, skiing, track, basketball, baseball etc.

I feel the same way. It's disappointing to see those injuries cost them a shot at making history.

No doubt, but I believe that with even one of those 4 players healthy at the end of last night's game they would still be undefeated right now. It's a shame that they had a chance for something special but injuries crushed that possibility.
Don't get me wrong, if they lose, they lose. But I'd rather see them lose because they weren't good enough than because they lost virtually every player that Tom Brady has a rapport with.

It's called stop playing the Game. Jordy Nelson hurt his and no one touched him. And he is not the only one.
Vikings fan since Nov. 6, 1966. Annoying Packer fans since Nov. 7, 1966

I hate to see injury hurt any team but as you hear time and time again, that's the NFL. It's similar to the Vikings injury trouble with the offensive line. At some point you get so far down into the depth chart that not much can be done. I suppose they could have invested more in WR

Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk has clarified his report to say that Pete Morelli’s crew has been demoted from Sunday night’s game between the Indianapolis Colts and Pittsburgh Steelers, not Monday night’s Redskins-Cowboys game.
