Super Bowl LII(E), One Versus All: They Arent Even BOTHERING To Hide It

This from Yahoo after the inevitable...

(For the record, the penalty at about 1:23 to go in the first half?  That's not only a penalty, but if the NFL enacts the targeting rule, like it's expected to do this offseason, he's gone.  That's a definite helmet shot, and he will be fined for it, I think.)

But it does no favors when the post-mortem to the AFC Championship reads like this:

Boomer Esiason, broadcasting for CBS:  "“But how about this one? Doug Marrone said this was the right call. Barry Church, helmet to helmet, unnecessary roughness. Now it’s Gillette Stadium so the flags have to come out, don’t they boys? They come out in favor of the Patriots, I don’t know about this call on A.J. Bouye.”"

And this little ditty:

"Whatever the case, referee Clete Blakeman being among the first to congratulate Tom Brady after the final snap isn’t going to help the perception that the zebras prefer red, white and blue to black and white."

The National Football League told you FIVE WEEKS AGO that the Patriots were going to win Super Bowl LII(E).  What is it going to take for you to take notice?



One penalty (on a kickoff return) vs. six for the Jaguars. This was NOT CALLED...



Oh Jesus Christ, are you kidding me?
