Looked to be pretty old and slow. Also head ref talked like he was from Dallas. Screw all refs, especially these tonight.

The fricking Beasley first down was so obvious. Those fricks were terrible all night though

The NFL officiating coordinator in the booth said it was the top rated NFL officiating crew, oldest average game, and longest tenure. Even he said it was a "bad night."

Not sure about age but 140 year combined experience said Mike Pirrera. He also said "not their best night at all"

They had a bad night, but it honestly didn’t favor either team.

Why do yall keep saying this? The only call they missed that hurt Dallas was the face mask on Prescott

Because I’m not going to be emotional and blame it on the refs when the offense played like shite.


We had the ball in hand with 2+ minutes left to win the game or at least tie with a FG but drew threw a horrible pass. End of story. Blaming the refs is for the birds.

Defense stepped up, offense shite the bed.

While true, he knew where he wanted it to go and the linemen was in his way so he had to sidearm it. We should have had the ball before that with a flagrant miss on the hit on Kamara.

Ok that’s fine....but the officiating still favored them. Was it the sole reason for the loss? No but you’re lying if you say they didn’t get the greater benefit from it

The Gregory neutral zone call against them was terrible. No call on a facemask on Dak as well.

Facemask on Brees could have been offset by a holding call that wasn't called.

Some big calls went against the saints but the officiating was just awful all together.

They need to not penalize a team for a successful challenge. That's an absurd rule.

I just don’t think it was egregious in their favor. Certainly not enough to blame the loss on that. We had the chance and literally threw it away.

I just said it wasn’t the reason for the loss...

They weren’t calling pass interference the same on both sides, cowboys got away with physical play on WRs we were not given. If you’re going to call it bad, be bad for both at least

Was a bad missed call, that should have never been... since incorrectly spotting Beasley a first down

Why can't it be both?

News flash. It was both.

And how many drives would have been sustained and resulted in points for the Saints and how many would have ended and resulted in no points for the Cowboys if the refs hadn't blown some crucial calls? I can tell you it was more than the 3 that the Saints lost by.

We can do this all day. Bottom line is the offense sucked and the refs sucked worse

No argument here.

I thought I heard tonight combined the crew was over 300 years old.

One official looked like the Mummy. Hey was this the same crew that officiated the LSU game. Some Texas mummies out there too.

The refs didn't decide to go for fourth and goal and get stuffed bro

Get over it, ya'll took an arse whooping.

Minus one play you would have had 3 freaking points

Blaming the refs is a bitch move
