After the last pass is incomplete, the clock reads :02. Then they run it down to :00. Hear the announcers, "They run out the clock". The clock ticked down to zero...THEN they put it back on. He didn't run out as soon as the pass was incomplete. He was waiting. Did Bellichick see the clock at zero or :01 when he ran out? With the crowd on the field, it's obvious he wasn't the only one.
I don't blame him.

That may be the case. The clock runs out, he runs onto the field along with a lot of other people. That is fine. However, the ref actually stopped him and told him there was one second left and they needed to run another play. He did this as Bellichick was running out onto the field. Bellichick ignored him, congratulated the Giants coach and jogged off the field. He knew there needed to be one more play, but didn't care.
It's not a big deal really, I think it is just further evidence of how he and the Pats have no respect for the league.
