Message: [QUOTE="longislandcuse, post: 1162371, member: 937"] THIS. The Bills committed 3 turnovers and had a stagnant offense in the first half. That was our demise, however you can't just say "make plays" because to "make plays", you have to be allowed to make them. Down 9 and Buffalo driving with a Woods reception deep into NE territory only to be called back on a phantom offensive PI/Pick Play is not allowing Buffalo to "make plays". On the other hand, allowing offensive holding to give Brady time and not calling offensive PI on Edelman (2 and 15) and Gronk (3rd and 16) allowed NE to "make plays" that Buffalo wasn't afforded the chances to. The two teams were officiated by two different sets of rules in the second half. I dont find it ironic that when the announcers started to make the one sided officiating a talking point is the exact point NE started to pull away. [/QUOTE]
