The decision to throw out of the 2 minute warning was just horrible. Then add on the 15 yard penalty late in the game. Almost like they were trying to get beat.

I agree, the fix was in.

Well, they covered, so I don't think the fix was in. I think the decision to throw was brutal - run one up the gut there and the jets have around 45-50 seconds left to get in field goal range (though Julian Peterson made that a moot point). I also thought LT was pretty clearly tackled in bounds with about 1:38 left and in Jets territory and the ref ruled he made it out of bounds. That's another 15-20 seconds.

That being said, teams shouldn't give up 10 point leads with 3:00 to play in the NFL. I'm over moral victories. This one really stung.

How about Sanchez scoring at 3:00, 11 seconds running off the clock before the ref makes the TD signal, then 3 more seconds inexplicably running off before they stop it at 2:46? That was ridiculous.

Sorry slot, tough loss. Jets really have to cut out the penalties and start forcing some turnovers again. Nice to get another game we usually lose. Great performance outta the Pats today by the way. Exposed.

The Pats sucked today, no doubt about it. We are still tied for first though.

Its fine gales... At this point, I dont think either team is going to the Super Bowl. We cant stop the run, run, and have no deep thread. Sanchez will hold the Jets back against Pittsburg/Baltimore.

No, 'we're' not. The Jets own the tiebreaker and are in first.

Yes this is true, but you also have to play NE again, in NE.
