Lions Coach Schwartz blames officials

To be somewhat fair, he did blame his corners for not catching the int's and their missing some 3rd down coversions - like the 3rd and 19 in the second half.

He did somewhat credit the Saints, indirectly, by saying that his team beat itself.

It might matter if he was still relevant in any way to the rest of the season. Bye Jim.

He has legitimate complaint with officials blowing whistle on Brees fumble.

Lions had ball and were gone to endzone when officials blew whistle; that missed TD could have been huge.

Nope.
The whistle blew before the ball even hit the ground. As a result, the entire Saints team stopped playing. If no whistle had blown, I doubt the entire Saints team would've just stood there and watch the Lions score.

whistle blew before they recovered. Entire Saints team stopped at the whistle. It may have been a recovery, but not necessarily a td. I don't think you can blame the officials for that. It looked like an incomplete to everyone but the back judge.

They blew the call.

The whistle blew before Detroit recovered. It should have been Saints ball wherever the ball was when the whistle blew.

Thought there were some tough calls, thought the refs, for the most part, did well

When you allow the opposition to hang a 40 burger on you - or for that matter what could easily have been a 50 burger - you don't blame the refs in your post game presser if you want to be taken seriously.

I thought officials helped DetLion.
