It's the playoffs. Play UP to the physicality of the game.

There will be untimely calls that's the nature of human error. But this is football and all we really want is a football game.

My suggestion - give it right back to them.

They have got away with it all year and nothing is going to change now, we are in for a fight today. We have to outplay them!! If Goddell wanted this crap stopped he would have said something by now and the way he loves us so much do you think he is now? No!!

And now we know and have hopefully prepared a passing game plan that expects these disruptions.

Wow. The excuse preparation is strong in here. It's a little unbecoming I must say. If we win, it'll be be because we we're the better team, not because the refs gave us a break. When have we ever got a break from the refs?...... No GB fans in here, are there?

Easy there dude. You're talking to Saints fans here. A handful of recent good years aside there aren't many fan bases who've wallowed in misery and contempt as long.

Excuses are a part of our DNA and we're used to having them come November not January.

Today is a rematch of two good teams that shouldn't be marred by ideological officiating. Good luck to you as your coach sees things from a different angle than ours. Translation - chess match.

Are you referring to our fans or the Browns fans?

Anyone know how I can send Kevin Gilbride a pack of Alaskan Amber?

Great timing!

Re: Seattle's Defense Relies On a Brazen Tactic: Rampant Interference

I wonder if the nfl or the refs have read any of the 100 or so articles on this. I can't imagine that they really want to have the story line be that they purposely favored the seahags.

Whatcha bet payton sent the league office an inquiry on interpretation just so it's something that he can go apesh it on the sidelines if the inequality presents.

Against 49ers, refs made 2 PI calls in a row and everyone on seattle sideline went crazy. This will never happen again.

We just have to play physical football. Dominate the line of scrimmage and run the football.

You might want to let the media in on it, according to what I've been reading, Seattle's going to win because the Saints aren't used to the cold, and the Saints won't be able to overcome the crowd noise or the wet field will slow down the Saints offense or the classic the Saints can't win on the road.

As a matter of fact, this story in this thread implies the Seahawks success is due in part to their "Brazen Tactic: Pass interference" and is from the Wall Street Journal of all places.

If it was the Saints DBs playing like that we wouldn't say a word. Make solutions, not excuses.
