That was pretty huge. I can't believe the booth wasn't going to take a look at that play. Still not a 100% sure it was a fumble though, but I'll take it

on the flip zorn's timeout to ice hartley that then persuaded payton to go ahead and go for more of a sure thing FG was also nice

How about McAlister for forcing that fumble also.

hard to tell, but i think once he got flipped it started to come out

the announcers seem to think it started to move once the forearm hit, but i think it was already coming out

their jerseys matched the ball color which made it hard to see, but it was coming out IMO

I don't think our D stops them if we don't get that fumble, so it was huge.

Every coach has faults, and Payton's in the past has been he's poor with challenges.

And I know he didn't challenge it himself, but he essentially did. EPICALLY GREAT timeout.

in real time I thought it was a fumble

in extreme slowmo I wasn't sure. The longer they looked at it the more confident I was.

quick whistle robbed us of another defensive td though

I was almost sure that they were going to call it incomplete. I didn't think he every really established possession and make a football move (that might not still be the rule though) I can't remember the Saints getting that many "breaks" in 1 game.

which made absolutely no sense to me. Why would the ball be coming out when the arm that wasn't holding the ball hit the ground? I never understood their reasoning behind that. Seems more logical that the hit itself caused the ball to be jarred loose, not the other arm bracing the body for the fall.

if u seen the side replay that they only showed once, it was clearly a fumble. i couldnt really tell from the back replay that they kept showing but the side view there wasnt ne doubt.

I also thought it was an incomplete pass, and that was what I was hoping for on the review. I was stunned and thrilled.

the clear decisive angle was only shown once...IMO, it was a definite fumble from that angle

I don't think they could have gone back and called it incomplete since we were challenging if it were a fumble. I could be wrong on that

You are correct. I just watched it again over at NFL.com -- there is no question that the ball came out.
