Don't Understand Criticism of Our Team and the Pass we Give to the Patriot's Refs

Doesn't matter how well our offence or defense played we were never going to be allowed to win that game ..NFL and officials love the pats...pats win..make playoffs ..NFL happy..

Is that why the refs called a fairly obscure special teams penalty on the Patriots to help the Jets win last week? I'm not defending the refs, but this conspiracy theory/paranoia crap is old. Every team's fans think the refs are out to get their team. Those were bad calls today and the Dolphins' performance in the second half was equally bad, or worse.
 
these were horrible calls. the illegal contact was only thrown after gronk dropped that 3rd down pass. a full minute after the play basically. complete bs
 
Maybe one or two horrible calls - in a game (or a season no less) - but not FIVE - in a road game -against your hated division leading rival - that you were leading 17 - 3 in after having thoroughly dominated for two quarters.

Sorry. I don't buy that. You show me another game where 5 blatant game changing calls turned the game around. Go ahead. I'm waiting.


This. The calls were too much for any team to overcome.
 
blaming the refs is an excuse for a bad football team. You can't score 17 vs the patriots then take the 2nd half off and expect to win.
 
I know we made mistakes, but come on! We won that game.

This Article explains it well.

We weren't perfect, but we played well enough to win this road game.

Stop attacking Dolphins and direct your fury at the NFL!

Those bad calls didn't cause tannebaby to fumble on the 10yd line and throw that lame duck at wallace

Stop blaming the refs for this loss. We had the game won and the first half the refs were just fine. Did you ever stop to think that if the dolphins didn't perform their patented meltdown and started playing like crap and causing penalties because they are a bunch of over paid crybabies, then maybe the ref excuse wouldn't be needed. A team who blames the refs for their problems derserves to lose. The refs didn't steal this game, the dolphins pissed it away, like usual.
 
Actually you can score 17 to win. Cincy scored more than 6 and beat them. Bad calls gave the Pats more opportunities. Wilson doesn't get flagged, incomplete. And with the strip sack, Pats face long yardage. It changes momentum. The biggest thing that I got mad about was when the Pats were on the 1 and the Phins were doing a little scuffling and Brady had the know how to try and capitalize by running a play quickly to catch us off guard. Now they didn't score on that play but that shows a lack of discipline.
 
Good teams find ways to win. Sadly we have to wait another year once again saying next year is our year
 
2 plays in a game don't change the outcome. A series of plays do. The way New England came out in the second half, they were going to win. They found out Miami's weakness. Tannehill is paranoid when facing a blitz, and the offensive line doesn't help him any by not picking up free blitzers.

oh man, the amount of times the Dolphins didn't pick up the guy off the edge was mind boggling.
 
It is hard for teams to win with such crucial bad call. It is true we needed to score more and people are saying 17 points was not going to beat the patriots but if you remove those bad calls=TD I think we would of. How many points did they score from bad calls, what 2 td and a fieldgoal? So 27-17= 10. Last time I checked 17 points does beat 10.
 
Team stunk in the second half but anyone who accepts that absolutely blatantly crooked officiating with "well, **** happens" is a kind of crazy I'll never understand.

I've been fighting for years my realization that the NFL is fixed to some extent, but today it's just impossible to ignore. Folks, you can call me a lunatic, but it just dawned on me that we're being punished for not helping to fund a new stadium for the cats who pull the strings on this thing. Too much money involved.

I know some of the younger posters on here won't want to believe that people will do crooked things for money, and some of the older posters will want to believe that the NFL 'shield' stands for something that's bigger than cash, but I've seen enough.

Call me a loon if you like, but I've always believed in looking at the evidence I've been presented and then reaching a conclusion that fits what I've been shown.

What I've been shown is a bunch of crooks.
