Featured Discussion Game Day Thread NFCCG New Orleans Saints vs. Los Angeles Rams

We didn't let the refs do anything. Nothing we could have done would have changed the outcome. This game was rigged from start to finish. Full stop.

The Saints need to hang a banner in the SuperDome. 2018-19 NFC Champions.

I think it’s time for Drew to hang it up, let’s see what Payton can do with Teddy. Have to be able to throw the ball deep in this game and Drew’s arm just can’t get it there late in the season.

I for one am not going to dwell on it, was a good season and we got robbed hopefully the league changes something because of it.

But for the refs, the offense played well enough to win. Brees at his worst is better than Teddy at his best. The way this game ended it wouldn't surprise me if Brees retires.

I just keep coming back to the fact that we had the ball first in OT. Forget everything that happened in regulation. Score a TD and we win. Problem is that our offense just isn’t automatic anymore. I don’t know what the problem is but we ran out of gas two months ago.

Brees has been off for months, O line isn't as dominant as it was early on.

On the third and longs, Brees went for a covered Arnold, when Tre'quan was wide open on a post route through the middle.

On the very next play, Brees missed a wide open Ginn that would have got a first down.

Yes the refs screwed us very badly, but I said Brees had to play better for us to win this game - he missed throws and took sacks, Then all of a sudden forgot how to take a sack in OT and threw a duck.

Watching Chiefs - Pats half time report.

Fu** Nate Burleson!

Boomer Esiason has my respect for what he said. Yeah, and again fu** Nate Burleson...

We might need to simplify the offense a bit, at least some of the time. I get Brees is one of the best at going through reads, but with the speed of today's game and with a guy like Donald coming after you, gotta make the offense easier to execute.

That’s a good point. I know it’s sacrilegious to say this, but Brees is very quickly moving into game-manager territory. This offense is so hot and cold now.

I do not really want to talk.
No one does.

The SAINTS DID NOT lose.
The coin toss did not go their way.
Which team gets the coin toss, WINS!
I always say I do not do halftimes.
Regular season halftimes are just the same.
Coin toss winner, wins the game.

Rams and Saints were so equally matched as KCChiefs were almost equally matched to Patriots.

NO TEAM CAN MATCH BELICHECK AND STAFF AND BRADY AND TEAM.

Luck, yeah is a huge part of ‘this NFL game.
I can never believe the pure luck, good calls, go thePatriots waylije tonight. They won the coin toss.
Of course.

Saints area hard luck team. Calls, lol, calls....what a joke.
I swear Saints could have a another team do fm pull, stomp on them a chop block all at one time and more and refs won’t see it.

I really, honest opinion, thought the Saints would pull an ugly , close W.
Good enough.
Get to the SB .
Lose in that game.
I could live with that.
KCChiefs or NEPats would smash these Saints.
I am not downing the Saints, but KC Chiefs are that good.
NEPats have been a high scoring, winning team these Brady years going on 15 plus years now.

Rams won , but NEPats are going to smash them into the turf.
