Bill Belichick Grabs Ref After Defeat
After the Patriots lost a thrilling and frustrating game to the Baltimore Ravens, Patriots coach Bill Belichick was seen grabbing a referee as he was exiting the field.
Belichick wanted the refs to review the game winning field goal by Justin Tucker, but rules state that if a ball goes over the uprights, it is not a reviewable call.
Belichick is looking at the very least a fine and maybe, and probably deservedly, a suspension. However you feel about the replacement refs, you shouldn't grab one like that and Belichick should have known better.
"Oh, boy, that's a few bucks" said NBC announcer Al Michaels. His partner in the booth, Cris Collinsworth added, "I can't believe Bill Belichick just did that"
It was a frustrating game for both teams as Belichick and Ravens coach John Harbaugh both screamed at the refs for questionable calls.
The NFL and the regular refs need to hash out their differences before this season gets completely out of hand.
