Officiating is why the Lions won this game.

I guess the Lions are one MUST Make the Show List this year and the saints are not.

3.75 qtrs of good play must count for something

To many Brees apologist and not enough are willing to criticizes him for anything.

He's not sacked more because of him. If he ate the ball more, his int's would reduce and the sacks would go up. Well you can be tired of it, that's you're right, but I watch the game without a bias. You have an agenda. I don't. Brees made a bad decision. He should have throw it away or taken the sack. I am not taking away the bad decision by him. He tries to do too much sometimes, but his sack total is low because of him, not due to our line play. And in truth our line played great in the first half, the injuries hurt

It's not the refs who stopped playing at 55 mins...

Why get up in arms because another fan disagrees with how you feel?

Because you're not supporting his clear agenda

Cause I thought we stopped them on 4rth down and the refs gave it back to them with an new set of downs. My bad

If you say so. But we wouldn't have even been in a position to let the officiating dictate the game's outcome if we put them away 27-10 with 5 minutes to go. Make it a 3 possession game with 5 minutes to go is a kill-shot.

This is what great teams do, and we are certainly not a great team.

None of us have the ability to do anything that matters here mitch...

Why post anything at all then i guess... lol

Not up in arms at all, but too many people are willing to put on the old breesus jacket and claim he can do nothing wrong. Sure he wasn't the only one that lost this game, but he has played a part in every loss. I just don't this he is at the elite status anymore.

Refs had nothing to do with not tackling golden Tate
They had nothing to do with brees forcing yet another pass

There were some bad calls, but we had the game won regardless, we still found a way to lose
