If Saints Games don’t make you crazy, then there’s gotta be something wrong with you.

Did anyone else notice we got penalised for one of the Titans D lineman calling our snap count?

Literally our entire O line and Carr pointed at their D lineman and the refs just ignored it and called the penalty on us.

Yup. That’s one I forgot to add to the refs screwing us.

The refs also screwed the Titans on that “forward pass” by Carr.

Clearly a fumble (arm wasn’t ‘moving forward) & the zebras blew it dead when it should have been 6 for the Titans.

So there’s that.

Missed calls on BOTH sides 🤷🏼

Here was an earlier take I had on the refs Major:

“ Carr’s “fumble”was no worse than the tuck rule. The league regularly leans towards an incomplete pass call on those types of plays.

I didn’t think the Titans defender demonstrated control of the ball inbounds on the fumble on the opening kickoff, but it was at least close.

The Non PI can in the 4th against Olave was the worst call/non call of the day.
The defender clearly dragged him down early while not playing the ball or looking back at all. They make that call and the game is sealed.

Apart from that, there were just numerous times I noticed our defensive ends getting dragged down that weren’t called. It just seem like frequently we get a play in our favor, like the Shaheed sweep run that was called back the stop on third down that was extended by holding on the Tipped pass play. I honestly felt the calls went their way more than the Saints.”

I am not going to lie... I did think of Tom Brady and the QB rules when that happened.
