“It was definitely not a push-off,” Graham said, via the New Orleans Times-Picayune. “I’m running down the field telling myself, ‘Whatever you do, don’t push off.’ It’s interesting how guys grab me everywhere on the field and I put literally two fingers on somebody and they make that kind of call.”


Aggravated me the commentators kept saying "oh that ref had the guts to throw that flag." or how about you not decide the game with a fricking flag. Refs are not on my good side.

I'm glad he's pissed, because the defender definitely flopped. It would have been an amazing way to win a game for sure.

had the guy not flopped, he would have gotten away with it.


that made it a really easy call in real time, because Graham did put his hands on him

Weird how a play call can make you go from what would be one of the greatest finishes in Saints history, to another loss in OT.

I thought the 49ers guy flopped a lot like with what happened in the Cincy-Baltimore game a week or so ago.

it was the play where Steve Smith pushed off.

Jimmy did shove him but the 49ers guy was overzealous with it I thought.

sucks.

basketball on grass almost.

I received $1600 today in a surprise, and I'm still pissed off.

OPI is tricky, there's always some distancing with the hands going on from the receiver.

When does it become OPI?

It was both a legitimate penalty and a flop.

They made the same call on Boldin earlier in the game with just as minimal of contact.

Don't give up 40 yards on 4th and 10 and this wouldn't be an issue

sadly I don't think Cox was in any position to out jump Graham and make that play regardless, so if he hadn't touched him, we more than likely win in an incredible fashion

Ok a-hole, that's pretty obvious.

Why did they not mark off the 10 yard penalty and give the Saints another play?

That 4th & 10 play really fricked it up. But you can't take the 1st qtr off and spot 14 to a desparate 49er team.

The Saints showed up late like most fans.

He should be. 49ers WRs were pushing off all game with no calls while a flop is immediately flagged.

I hated how the announcers just kept laughing about it and acting as of it was some hilarious/quirky play instead of actually analyzing it and calling out the bullshite that it was
