Not a Saints fan but I empathize. Got to be very maddening. Worst no-call of all time, no doubt.

The Minneapolis Miracle and the Rams game is just an insane double dose of trauma. It's almost better to be a Lions fan and just suck.

The Rams made up for it by turning in one of the most pitiful Super Bowl appearances in recent memory.

Since woke Sean Payton is such a bitch, looks like a good no call to me.

Well to be fair the Saints had a ton of chances to put the game away in the first half and just did not execute in the red zone, so the play we are talking about would not have mattered.....

This play, Minneapolis Miracle, Vernon Davis catch & run then td catch, and Marshawn Lynch beastmode run are all plays that has for ever scarred me as a Saints fan.

I'll say it again: if that had happened to the Falcons, Bama, the Warriors (whatever the basketball equivalent would be), etc. I would have been pissed.

shite like this is NOT good for sports. We're about to enter an era where domestic sports betting happens in most states. This kinda thing simply CANNOT happen or sports will go the way of boxing.

That's all I'm saying. People act like that no call was a walk off loss for NO. It wasn't. They had chances before and after that no call to put the game away. Obviously it was a horrible job by the refs but the Saints still shite the bed.

They make the right call and it’s first and goal for the Saints to where they kneel out the clock and kick the winning 20 yard fg to go to the super bowl. Sucks

The Saints benefited from a no call facemask in that game that would have sealed it.

This evened it out.



Not even close. If this PI call was made it's a first down, NO bleeds the clock and kicks a game winning FG.

More pissed at the shitty short arm throw at wide open Thomas’s feet two downs prior. Pitiful choke throw by at that time my fav Saint ever.

Didn't NO get the ball first in OT only to have Brees throw an interception that first series?

Yes, but there were 2 no calls on the interception play as well.

The first was the "incidental contact" on MT13 where he was tripped by the defender as the ball was in the air. I don't recall the specifics, just that the "incidental" part of that was very questionable.

And the Dlineman smacked Brees in the facemask as he was releasing the ball. Should have been a roughing the passer call there, which would have overturned the INT.
