Pereira on Twitter says it is up to the discretion of the official. Paging Dr. Sak?

So, since I missed the first couple minutes, and to see how my silly office prop bet pool is going...

What was the coin toss, and which coach was mentioned first after the kickoff?

Picks never get called unless they are especially aggressive.

Bear in mind, these aren't real "bets". I picked 12 prop bets, and my office made their picks - winner takes the pot.

If I remember correctly.

Coin Toss
First Coach Mentioned after Kickoff
Hoodie Color
Color of Gatorade poured on winning coach
First thing MVP thanks in speech (teammates, god, coach, fans, etc)
# of times Katy Perry mentioned before half (during game, not commercials)
Will Belichek smile on camera during game.
Over/Under Duration of National Anthem (need to find that one out)
Will Al Michaels mention prop bets during game.
# of times 'deflate' is said during game.
Will Katy Perry wear pants, shorts, or dress/skirt.
Which will be higher: WIlson's passing yards, or national avg price of gas.

Surprising, looks like it was his arm when he came down, thought that was an ACL the way the tackle looked.

Uh, he was 33 over 9 this year. I don't think INTs are exactly typical.

Why are you posting if you are on the team? Hoodie is going to be pissed at you.

I don't care about stats. Sure seems like majority of those nine were him panicking and floating an air ball in key situations.

I never knew the Polar Bear fell to Mexico in the draft, and they passed on them for avacados.

What a bust.

National anthem was 124 seconds long according to what I saw.

Have to like the NE strategy to throw underneath. Looks like the stuff to Vereen and the slot guys is just there all day. Not sure how you respond to that, even with an excellent defense (and Seattle is playing pretty well, overall). Getting thin at DB won't help.

Pretty even game so far. Defenses playing well so far - particularly the NE DBs.

Living up to a fun game so far.

What happened to the league cracking down on hands to the face? It seems that almost every play on that drive a Patriots lineman took a shot the head of a blocker.

Just kick the FG. Don't overthink this.

edit: Nevermind, didn't realize they were down to the 11. Hell, they could even run it. definitely run a play.
