Officiating

No we didn’t deserve the win regardless of the officiating. Up until the Atlanta game I though the officials were doing a great job. Very few missed calls. I started seeing it during the Atlanta game but last night was abhorrent. The icing on the cake was the 1st down that was clearly a yard short. A call like that could have changed the result of the game.
With all the time The NFL spent Trying to sell us rule changes and talking about the extra focus on helmet to helmet they sure dropped the ball on that crack to Kamara’s helmet. That would have been a flag 10 years ago.
The NFL is trying to level the playing field the way they have called the last two games.

Fast game. Human error exists. Blink and anyone could have missed that impact. I’m pissed too. It reminded my of the spear on PT23 in San Fran that knocked him out of the game.

Re: Officiating

For me it was the missed helmet to helmet on AK. The linebacker left his feet and everything, clearly an obvious penalty that would have resulted in a first down.

That said let me give props where they're deserved, Dallas came to play. The Saints meanwhile fell into a trap game and played very poorly.

Or the one on Kamara in ATL last year.

Re: Officiating

Meh ...

Bad calls on both sides. Dumb a** Randy Gregory almost single handedly marched us down the field on one drive.

Saints were lousy on offense & we didn't do enough to win. I'm 100% confident you won't see that type of performance again.

It looks like there are two guys with cowboy shirts and headsets on behind SP. They must be staff for the stadium. They can't possibly be that dumb and think no one would notice them.

People are trying to say “Meh, he’s probably just some stadium staffer who has nothing to do with the actual team” but this is a problem in my eyes.

What in tarnation? They are next to the orange oven mitts TV timeout guy, so I presume they have something to do with him, but still...that's really not looking too good.
