McCray grabbed Farve's calf from behind, he didn't hit his knee or his chest or his stomach.
He was falling down and stumbling and the only thing he could grab was his leg.

And did you see the hit on Brees in OT ????


I am a Saints fan. I definitely thought the hit on Brees should have been a penalty, but only based on the earlier one called on the Saints, not because I thought it should have been a penalty.

I also saw a hands to the facemask on Brees not called.

But I saw the hit on Favre to the legs a lot differently than you did.

I think the Saints got away with a lot of questionable hits on Favre in the first half based on calls we have seen througout the years.

The hit out of bounds on the Saints was completely lame.

Yeah the refs did a bad job. But I think the whining about the persecution of the Saints is over the top.

We won.

Now we play Indy and get torched.

Again read the rule.. The player was blocked to the ground into him. If the official sees it that way then he made the correct call regardless of what you think.

I think you are talking about the play where McCray lit Farve up after the handoff and the Ref mistakenly called the foul on a hit out of bounds. But the penalty was on McCray.

I haven't watched anything else but replays of that game for the past three days.
