The NFL is compiling the top moments in NFL history and somehow no moments involving the New England Patriots made the list

We have seen just how much the NFL and its fans hate the New England Patriots. Ever since they have been eliminated from the playoffs the entire world has been dancing on the franchise’s grave.

But there is no doubt that the Patriots are a large part of the NFL’s success. Their dynasty had people who loved the team or hated them tuning in every single week.

New England has also been a part of many notable moments in NFL history. Some of them have been disappointing like the David Tyree catch while others have made fans go crazy with excitement in their living room.

So you would think that the Patriots would be on the list for top moments of the decade? Well not so fast my friend.

The NFL tweeted out the list and you will notice that it is anti-Patriots. The only moments on there even involving New England is the “Philly Special” and the Tyree catch.

The most obvious omission from this list is Malcolm Butler’s interception. That moment will live in infamy forever. Butler made his entire career off that one play.

What made that play so special was it literally won the game for the Patriots. Not just any game either, the Super Bowl.

Butler was an unknown player, but due to New England’s insane studying of the Seahawks and Bill Belichick’s eye for talent, they knew Butler could make the play.

If you have a play such as “the catch” on here you have to have Butler’s interception on the list. It just shows how much hatred there is towards the New England Patriots.

Next. Don't count out N'Keal Harry. dark

It doesn’t matter what this list says. New England Patriots fans know just how many special moments we got to witness these past 20 years.
