And also explain Munnerlyn’s blatant PI that wasn’t called earlier in the game

They called something that offensive players have always been allowed to do.

Ridiculous call

Offensive player can touch the facemask, can’t yank it though. Terribly blown by the ref.

A stiff arm is apparently a personal foul now.

It’s called fricking the Saints over so we don’t get to the big game.

The refs had to make sure it didn’t go the Saints way there. Offsetting penalties is all they could think of at the moment.

Shitty refs called a shitty penalty on Carolina DB. Instead of owning it and waiving off the flag they made the shitty decision to call offsettting which was a shitty result for Saints.


TLDR:Refs are shitty.

Exactly. These fricking refs stare down a vicious hit to Kamara in Dallas and completely ignore a blatant PI in this game, along with the other numerous shite. And we think we are gonna make it to ATLANTA?

NFL wants the Rams and KC. Book it

The problem is he grabbed it a little bit and pushed his helmet up. It's not often called because most offensive players don't grab it like that.

Some of you need to go back to the rant with that conspiracy bullshite.

Dude we’ve all watched that same stiff arm technique for years and no flag is thrown. I appreciate you’re trying to be objective, but recognizing you’re getting fricked is also objective.

Yeah I agree.
Mike thomas has huge hands and he got a little yank on it.
I didn't see it at first but on slow mo I saw it.

You can’t push or control the face mask on offense. You can simply touch it and then release, but that’s not what happened. If you have seen that called you don’t watch very much ball buddy!

They’ve made a point of emphasis to start calling that recently

Just see that flag in the last play? I’m not saying he didn’t do it- I’m saying they never call it. Just like the last flag for procedure. Every positive play we get they call some shite.
Sorry you can’t see how bad this is. Have fun being disappointed.

Again it’s jot a flag if you touch it and release. That’s why it’s not always called. Learn the rules
