Meh- it was the wrong call but when officiating that many guys in real time at weird angles you use cues... as romo noted, based on an initial look with the guy getting open on the cut like that it’s normally a shove. 

 

Getting the good angle, slow motion, and knowing what was coming it was obvious. 

It's best of the best out there for the refs and just making the call because the guy was open is a pretty horrible guideline.

This is why I don't want to watch Pats games. That's a freaking penalty ? Torbert and crew are a joke , esp Torbert with his Pats bias! They see a play being made and assume the team p,aging vs NE MUST have committed a foul to get open. What a crock! These penalties stop drives , and TEN was looking like they could pull an upset, but won't because of the flipped field position and they'll be behind soon.

So what you're saying.... No way someone gets that open against the Pats unless theres a penalty.  Throw the flag... Figure out what to call later.

I would much rather have the refs put away the whistles and the flags like the old NHL refs used to do in the playoff overtimes than have these constant ticky tak calls that are bogus. Like the Pats need any help to win.

how are they able to make it look so easy, year after year after year?

 

Titans’ D playing like they’re just honored to even be on the same field as the mighty Patriots

Entire game changed because of phantom BS penalty

It wasn’t just that he was open- it was that bodies came together at the top of the route and one went down. I didn’t see the refs angles but obviously they are going to have certain cues and triggers that are likely to indicate a penalty.

 

if you prefer to think the games rigged, I’m not even sure why you’d be watching.

It didn't look easy at all until the officials got involved... even tried to give Ne a TD when runner was down.
