It is rivalry week at SB Nation NFL! All week long Derek Rivers Jersey , the entire network will focus on rivalries all over the league — the famous and the obscure. Today, we’ll take a look at how the Patriots drove one man so crazy that he inadvertently changed the way football is played forever...and that’s not a compliment.You know you’re a habitual line-stepper when saying “we had a first round grade on Tom Brady” still only checks in as the second-most ridiculous thing on your resume.Everybody saw the Madden Bowl on Monday night, right? The Kansas City-LA, all-11-personnel, run-to-set-up-the-HAHAHAHAJK-go-sling-it fireworks show between the NFL’s two top offenses and two defenses that occasionally rank below the Browns, no offense, and, oh yeah, the refs showed up too. Showed up to the tune of 26 penalties, which, by my math three beers in, is roughly one flag per every 2 minutes of actual football being played.But hey, let’s ask a couple All-Pros:Last season there were 277 pass interference penalties handed out, and that’s actually a slight decrease from 2016, where 289 flags flew for varying degrees of pushing/pulling/poking/prodding/grabbing/tugging/...OK, this is getting weird, but you know what we mean. Some of these jersey-pulls and bear-hugs are well-deserved, while a considerably irritating amount of them feel like the NBA when someone gets whistled for daring to give a bit of a side-eye in LeBron’s general zip code. And it’s all the Colts’ fault.Specifically Donald Trump Color Rush Jersey , Indianapolis Colts GM and NFL Competition Committee member Bill Polian.Cue the throwback music and take it away, Washington Post!Let’s make this clear: quickly, off the top of your head, who’s the worst person in the entire bar to watch sports with?The “REFS SCREWED US!” guy, of course, and it’s not close. It takes a lot to make Yankees fans look appealing by comparison, but Mr/Mrs ‘REFS, WHAT AH YA BLIND??!?” blows every pinstripe-wearing 27-rings could-be-a-Jersey-Shore-minor-character out of the water.So what was Bill Polian’s solution? Not, you know, “have my team get better at football”, obviously - it was basically to turn NFL refs into the cop in 99 Problems.I’ll let Jay-Z handle this one:THAT’S how Indy wanted it called, and how they needed it to not get tossed around like a puppy playing with a boat rope toy on prime-time TV in the playoffs, and that’s what they got. In spades.And don’t let Bill or anyone else tell you that this was for the good of the whole league or anything - just a few years later, Pro Football Talk got this scoop from now-former VP of Officiating Mike Pereira:Fast forward a few MORE years, and mutated into something even Polian couldn’t have seen coming, like when the zombies start coming in 28 Days Later and we all briefly sharted ourselves and realized “They can RUN??!?”After the NFL spent a better part of a decade bailing offenses out if a corner got closer than the person next to you in a concert mosh pit, teams started figuring out - most notably the prime Legion of Boom ‘Hawks - that refs can’t throw a flag on EVERY play, so just mug ‘em every time and see what happens.Come on back https://www.patriotsfanstore.com/Eric-Rowe-Jersey , Mikey P!This is the new Sunday now - the reason why the jump-ball that used to be a spectacular mano-a-mano street-fight is a coin-flip for a penalty that can take you 40 yards down the field for daring to get in the way of a wideout that may have bricks for hands, but has just as good odds to get a penalty as he does to put more than 2 fingers on the ball.And here we are, all because Peyton was a system quarterback that couldn’t modify his game to beat the one team that had his number.Unbelievable. The playoff chase went down to the final minutes of the season Sunday, when Baltimore squeezed in as AFC North winner, and defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia got some help to secure an NFC wild card.That left Pittsburgh and Minnesota out.Kansas City (12-4) grabbed the AFC’s top seed, followed by New England (11-5), Houston (11-5) and Baltimore (10-6). The Chargers (12-4) own the first wild card and will play at the Ravens next Sunday at 1 p.m. EST. The Colts (10-6) romped past the Titans 33-17 at Tennessee and have the other wild card. They travel to Houston on Saturday afternoon.The Saints (13-3) have the top seed in the NFC, and the Rams (12-4) got the No. 2 spot when they beat San Francisco. Chicago (12-4), whose win at Minnesota knocked out the Vikings and put the Eagles into the postseason, is seeded third and gets Philadelphia (9-7) next Sunday at 4:40 p.m.Dallas (10-6) is the fourth seed and will play Seattle (10-6) on Saturday night.C.J. Mosley intercepted a fourth-down pass by Baker Mayfield to preserve the Ravens’ 26-24 win as Baltimore rushed for a season-best 296 yards. A year ago, Baltimore missed the playoffs by losing its finale at home to the Bengals, who rallied with a last-minute touchdown.“If you want to write a book about this season, probably no one would believe it,” coach John Harbaugh said.Steelers players remained on the field after they edged Cincinnati 16-13 and watched the drama from Baltimore on the videoboard. But their archrival Browns couldn’t help them against the equally hated Ravens, and Pittsburgh (9-6-1) is out.“It just sucks,” Steelers guard David DeCastro said. “How hard we work, how much effort we put in. To go from 7-2-1 to where we are now is heartbreaking.”Nick Foles, who led the Eagles to the Super Bowl title over the Patriots in Minneapolis last February Josh Gordon Jersey , guided them to a resounding 24-0 victory at Washington. Then the Bears helped out at Minnesota with a 24-10 win even though they had nothing to play for, being set as the NFC’s third seed.“We’re not sneaking in. We’re here to do some damage,” Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins said.Earlier, the Texans rallied from losing their first three games to win the AFC South and become the No 3 seed.Houston easily handled Jacksonville 20-3 Sunday as Deshaun Watson threw for 234 yards and ran for a touchdown, and DeAndre Hopkins had 147 yards receiving.The Texans finished last in the division in 2017. They and the Bears have done the worst-to-first turnaround this season, making it 15 of the past 16 seasons that has occurred in the league.“It’s do or die now, so you’ve got to put everything on the line now,” Watson said. “Prepare harder than you did before and anything can happen at this point. The tournament is wide open and it’s my first playoff, so I’m just excited to get in and see how things go.”New England, meanwhile, will get a week off in early January for the 13th time since 2001, most in the NFL during that span. The Patriots routed the Jets 38-3, and because they defeated Houston during the season, they get the bye.“Eleven and five is nothing to be sad about,” Tom Brady said. “We fought pretty hard and put ourselves in good position.”
