Observations from the Saints' Loss to the Titans

My take? With Michael Thomas and Jameis Winston both healthy we’d be #1 in the division right now. We’ve lost too much.

I know I’m bi***in here but today’s referees are ruining our game.

Taunting, phantom roughing the passer calls need to be reviewed.

Huddle up and get it right.

Too many judgement calls being made at crucial times affecting the final score.

And the NFL sure has become cozy with the gambling aspect. While the NFL flatly refuses to address the officiating in any meaningful way, and with so many viable options, it just makes one take a serious look at what could really be going on here.

I agree that the Saints miss having Thomas on the field but I don't think that there's much drop off from Winston to Siemian at QB. Winston is the class clown and many players love him but he also seems to play more recklessly.

And this is where the “proof” of rigged games lies to me. Look at that Steeler/Bear game the other night. They’ve admitted they screwed it up and there is NO CONSEQUENCE! There never is. From this game to the no call PI in the NFC playoffs, there are numerous times the NFL has screwed up calls and admitted it yet they continue to take no actions to improve. People still eat it up. They don’t care. Some wouldn’t care if the league admitted it was fixed because they still would watch because they don’t know who they will fix it for and weather it will be enough to change the outcome. The league darlings teams that always get the calls make up probably 60 plus percent of NFL fans. As long as the league made those groups happy and give other teams the shaft, they still would have viewers and still would be making millions.

No crap! Giving up (Not getting) extra points has killed the team!!!! And Payton has done what he can to address it. I know Verity’s name is one a lot of people have wanted. I don’t know why that has not happened or if he would have been the answer. But at least they have tried different kickers.
