5. That officiating was ... just ... wow:
There were phantom holding calls, phantom offensive pass interference,
missed calls on late hits and missed calls on holding on Sunday night.
And if it felt like just about every one of those dubious decisions
worked going against the Patriots, that’s because just about all of the
important ones did.
The Patriots can overcome injuries. They
can overcome bad officiating. They can overcome a hostile road
environment. But they could not overcome all three at the same time
against the Broncos.
