I dunno what do you think?  Isn't that a rule, to add content when making a thread?

So you first.

Given how much adversity Miami has faced with officiating since 2008, I can't really sympathize with them too much

Just saw the OPI and yes, Gronk does push off.

What are the options for how they were robbed?

New England has no business complaining about a call...ever.

The Patriots have gotten lucky often enough, but clearly they were hit with the bad-luck-stick against the Broncos. They dropped if-not-easy-then-certainly-makeable interceptions, the ball just didn't bounce their way a couple of critical times, and the handful of close calls in the game all went against them... plus the refs missed at least one very critical call:



This was on the touchdown pass.

Make-up calls/plays for the NYG game, which NE should have lost about twice?
Works for me.

^^^^

Well there's a difference between the players not being able to execute and bad calls.  Did you think that catch was a bad call, Spider?

Miami has been fighting bad calls for awhile.

I remember 2009, when it directly cost them two games against the Saints and Titans.

2010 with the PI call against the Jets and the fumble with the Steelers.

The only thing New England has been robbed of is their dignity. I've never seen such a whining bunch of athletes and 'fans' than this bunch. Tom Brady has really lost a lot of my respect in the past few days. They blew a 14 point fourth quarter lead and had a chance twice to seal that game. The first time when Hillman coughed it up and they didn't recover and the second on their special teams debacle. Any calls they claim were missed are irrelevant. As with every game the missed call went both ways. I know it's deflating...

Did the Broncos get any calls in that game?

Here were the calls

1) OPI on Gronk that negated a first down.

2) Holding on Chung that negated a sack

3) Hands to face is shown in that picture there on the touchdown.

4) The clock running on the Patriots last drive in regulation

5) The uncalled pass interference on the Patriots first drive in overtime.

I think the verdict is:  Patriots were robbed.

I am a Dolphins fan, but I can be objective.

Looking at this again, I'm not sure the fix was not in.
