Refs should have explained the penalty. Everyone was completely baffled until they showed the replay.

I grew up in NE and was a Pats fan and this would have NEVER happened on a Belichick team, and if it did people would be benched or cut…

That being said, I would a million percent prefer to have a fun ass team like the 9ers making stupid plays from time to time over a team that wins Super Bowls through will and stubbornness by clawing out yards 3 at a time.

I know it negated a TD. But, in turn we drove down the field and scored anyway. And are up 3:30 while doing it. It actually worked out better for us lol.
