BLOOMINGTON, Minn. -- One of the storylines surrounding the Patriots this season is they get the benefit of a lot of calls.

There was the Austin Seferian-Jenkins lost fumble out the side of the end zone, which was ruled a touchback over a touchdown, and then the Kelvin Benjamin play that appeared to be a touchdown, but was overturned and changed to an incomplete pass.


Speaking to reporters Tuesday, NBC Sports' Rodney Harrison said the Patriots do not get all the calls. In fact, it's the opposite.

"It's dumb," Harrison said. "Everyone hates us. Everywhere I go. I'm serious, everyone hates us. Everywhere I go, people hate us, they talk. I walk into the gym after the Falcons game and people are like, "Aww, look at him." When you're a Patriot, you're just an enemy with everyone else. It's the Patriots, and it's everyone else. Because everyone is trying to be like the Patriots."

Harrison played for the Patriots from 2003-08.
