I see no reason to blow an early whistle unless it’s 100%. Not sure why you would take leave, the main thing about following sport is having a discussion.

To emphasize your point, years ago the refs were given a memorandum to be slow about the whistles to avoid situations like that.

The league suspends the best player in the league and takes away two important draft picks and then conspires to give them favorable calls?
That does not smell right at all.

Everyone acts like it is an NFL conspiracy. There doesn't have to be an organized, conscious, planned agenda here. It can just be the normal every day prejudices all human beings have. I don't believe the NFL front office has mandated the Pats win. But are there Belichek/Brady fans among the officials? Do the zebras assume a disciplinarian coach would have disciplined his players to commit zero penalties? Could be. Just like college refs assume a flopping dook defender must have drawn the charge.
