Buccaneers @ Saints Game Day Thread

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; This is crazy - 3 minutes left in the 4th quarter and up to this point neither team has used a timeout throughout the whole game. That has to be some kind of record....

I disagree. We have to try something. Hear no evil, see no evil ain't working. The NFL is using the refs to tilt every close game in our opponents favor every week and they are getting more brazen every year.

Say we had drafted Maholmes but the refs are still against us. Maholmes still makes some amazing throws and plays in high scoring games and racks up big stats. He is still young and likable. State Farm and Dominos Pizza and Nike sign him to endorsements. Then when the NFL doesn't give him star treatment and calls back all his big plays, Goodell gets calls from State Farm, Dominos, and Nike. I think that makes a real difference. I don't think we can afford to be a gritty veteran lunch pail team full of second chances. We can only beat Goodell if we hit him in the pocket book or if we have such an amazing team that few games are close (only possible if we get under the cap and then load up all at once).

I thought the ground can’t cause a fumble

His foot touched the corner on the way down man. That’s not a fumble.

It's a fumble because he wasn't touched down by defender.

They need to change that rule. I wouldn't mind if NFL made it like college when if you're down, play is over. Would get rid of nonsense like this.
