10 Times the Referees Helped the New England Patriots

The NFL is rigged for the Patriots; the referees are obviously on their side. Here are a few times the referees helped New England win games.

The Top Ten

1 Tuck Rule (2001 AFC Divisional Round vs. Raiders)

U can argue the rule but it was the right call and the pats had it called against them in the same season

I hope that they don't screw us in the Super Bowl.

2 Jesse James's obvious catch ruled incomplete (Week 15 of 2017 vs. Steelers)

3 Missed holding call (Week 6 of 2013 vs. Saints)

4 Missed holdings and pass interferences (2018 AFC Championship vs. Jaguars)

5 Bad calls against Jacksonville (2018 AFC Championship vs. Jaguars)

6 "Touchback" (Week 6 of 2017 vs. Jets)

7 Kelvin Benjamin's obvious catch ruled incomplete (Week 16 of 2017 vs. Bills)

8 Tom Brady pleads case to refs about a penalty (Week 2 of 2017 vs. Saints)

9 Roughing the passer despite barely touching Brady (Week 4 of 2009 vs. Ravens)

10 Pass interference despite defender not touching receiver (Week 14 of 2013 vs. Browns)

This is the only one of these that is a legit bad call

The Contenders

11 Missed Pass Interference (2019 NFC Championship, Rams vs Saints)
