One big reason why the saints lose on the road

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I hit on this early, not just us either. DBs are mauling. Somebody is telling refs to look away....

Doesn't appear to be affecting the Bronco receivers very much, maybe the the referee crew's doing their games aren't getting the message.

Re: One big reason why the saints lose on the road

I think a lot of our road struggles are just a mental thing. It isn't like our players downgrade in talent away from home or anything. We just don't have the confidence/swagger on the road like we do in the dome.

Kuechly Tackled Graham before the ball got there on one touchdown pass attempt...

On several plays

In the dome, the boos fly on the first mauling
Then the refs call the holds
Recall Colston in first Panthers game

Killed the drive
Then got the calls


Gronk got malled by Carolina too

As "offense happy" as the rules seeem to be regarding qbs
Our team seems to be getting so many non calls on the receivers

If I was drew I'd throw right at a held receiver and have them react demonstratively

No. Just fight for the ball, try to throw off the holds, lean into the defender towards the balll making the infraction even more obvious

And at all cost fight it out if the db snatches it
