The Gurley initial TD was ruled down
The face mask is 15 yards now no matter what and a first. Instead it was not ruled and no new series of downs

The cooks missed face mask (ended up being a TD)
The missed delay of game that allowed a Saints TD.

I mean both teams got jobbed

But as I said Champ teams don’t blow leads at home and don’t have turnovers in their end to lose the game

as is the case in almost every game.

the point that folks like you always seem to gloss over is that the timing of the "job" changes everything.

and if you're going to list other missed calls, Brees had to roughing the passers that went uncalled (Suh on one and then on the INT)

You could even argue Thomas was hit on the INT

and there was an INT on that slot out route a bit before as well. The announcers mentioned that as well.

This is such a lazy arse argument/point.

Yeah the Saints could've done more
Yeah the Rams made plays to win

Both of those can be true and have literally 0 to do with the fact that the officials completely blew a call that directly affected the outcome of the game.

It blows my mind that people default to this any time officials are criticized. And it's not like this was a close/controversial play in any way. It was completely blatant, completely obvious, and missed by two different officials who both had two different views/angles of it.

I assume most of it is trolling because it's fans of either the Rams or teams who don't like the Saints. Because if being a contrarian with no real point and you're not trolling then I'd wonder what you have going on in between your ears
