Early whistle which negated Jordan touchdown...counts for two as they made two errors...
Two uncalled holds where the OL had an arm around Jordan's neck...
On first drive of game Jared Cook was held on 3rd down incompletion that ended drive..
Saint's player facemasked and helmet ripped off with no flag...
Questionable illegal contact call against Apple in end zone that gave Rams first down and then touchdown instead of forcing field goal...I do not think player caught the ball and would have been reviewed no penalty.

Give the refs a break, they’re trying. The game is so fast..... it’s hard making the right calls on bang bang plays like that.

You are either joking or have the lowest IQ on the board.

Seriously, give them a break. The refs don’t have enough time in the day to see/call all of that and call the debilitating holding calls against the saints.

Clay Matthews grabbed ram by the facemask and pulled his head down right at the snap.

Calls are going to be missed both ways. It's silly to try and break down all these little missed calls because a Rams fan could watch the game and say the same stuff.

It's the egregious, game changing ones like the fumble that are unacceptable. Ones that have the announcers shocked on the spot and the head of officiating admitting fault before the game even ends.

I feel like every game is going to have questionable calls in it. Especially to us Saints fans who have refs under a microscope. However, the early whistle is especially questionable because they did the exact opposite of what they are trained to do in that situation. And the 10 second runoff last week is also extremely questionable because, well, the refs just didn't consider a major factor of the rules.

But if we as fans freak out about every uncalled holding penalty we are going to drive ourselves mad. Still, I cannot believe the 10 second runoff call last week and the early whistle this week happened in back to back weeks to us. It is inexcusable.

You do not think an open drive killing no call and go ahead touchdown dicey csll are egregious or game changing? You don't think getting a helmet ripped off with no call is egregious?

This is Goodell style payback for Gayle complaining.

Then Ms. Gayle should double down. frick Roger. The Saints are a box office and ratings bonanza for the entire league. Sure, we are a small market team, but the numbers don’t lie.

They missed a clear facemask of the rams player by JAred Cook on the interception. Practically turned that head sideways. they miss calls on both sides. The fumble call was ridiculous but the other ones arent even in the same level.

That’s not the point. Three games in a row with huge calls that hurt the Saints

Sure, but the penalties should be called fairly between both teams. When there are 9 (is this the correct number?) holding calls against one while we are watching numerous egregious calls against the other, this is not calling the game fairly. This is officiating with bias.

There were some egregious penalties not called on the Rams (Smith's facemask getting ripped off for instance), and then there were terrible calls against the Saints (MT's PI on the last drive). The balance was way off to be considered anything but unfair and unbiased.
