NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

With the Rams stealing the NFC championship in overtime from the Saints, the league office will be under siege for the inexplicable non-call at the end of regulation that kept the Saints from running the clock down to the final seconds and winning the game with a walk-off field goal.

Nothing will happen, nothing ever does.

Rams will lose to the Patriots in another Super Bowl!

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

If that happened to Tom Brady it would be a nightmare for the NFL. But we all know the Pats get that call every time. There's a reason why no small-market team has ever won multiple Super Bowls. And they never will. The only reason they let the Saints win their first Super Bowl was because of Katrina. This is why Chris Paul and Anthony Davis will never stay in New Orleans. I'm done with all sports on TV. They're all rigged.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Not to mention, Goodell has a long-standing hate boner for us. Any of that vaunted BGate evidence ever show up?

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Hit these jackasses where it hurts.

Send them an email about this BS along with your vow not to spend another dime on the NFL and it’s WWE-like script writers

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Packer fans may disagree with you.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Would be nice if someone could post the name of the ref that “missed” the call, we should make him famous.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

I just wish that Payton had grown a pair in the post game interviews and called it like it was. Don't know if the game was really rigged....but the Saints were robbed, regardless. This Super Bowl needs to have an asterisk in the record book with a footnote saying that the Saints were the actual NFC champs but the refs gave the game to the Rams.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Packers are exempt from the small-market rule because of their heritage and the championship trophy name.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

I actually think Payton did a good job - he chose his words well, said multiple times "they" told him it was indeed a missed call. He remained composed and kept putting it back on the league since it was their own admitted mistake.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

There are times to stay composed and times to come unglued. This was an unglue moment if there there ever was.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Exactly! Why come unglued? The game was over and him coming unglued and yelling still wouldn’t have changed anything...

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Tomorrow I want the sports talk guys to be all over the non-call and what a load of crap it was. Need to keep the greater public on our side. Payton going ballistic only gives our haters oxygen.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

There's only 1 hater here, that's Roger Goodell. His circus of pizz poor refs and officiating was on display for the entire country to see.

When owners like Author Blank lead a committee to give Goodell a 5 year extension worth 40 to 50 million dollars, the result is what everyone saw tonight. Goodell's refs, Goodell's rules, and those are selectively enforced.

Congrats to the Rams for hanging in and winning. The biggest loser today wasn't the Saints, rather the NFL which is losing fans and viewership in droves all because of Roger Goodell and his sorry azz god complex, sorry azz rules and sad officiating.

GARY CAVALETTO.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Found his address and phone number online already. Confirmed by checking out a bio page which mentions where he lives and what he does for a living outside of being a "referee."

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

**** it, here goes...

Gary Cavaletto


I wouldn't normally do something like this, but that ******* deserves it.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Nice. He lives just outside Santa Barbara and not that far from LA I see. Hmmm.
The NFL is a joke.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Anybody still doubting that the fix was in? This was blatant.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Coming at this from another angle, you have to know that if this happened in an NCAA game, it unequivocally would have been called targeting, 1st down and Robey-Coleman ejected.

We can't go on like this where the NCAA officiating is substantially better than the NFL's. Yeah I know NFL speed is faster, but still.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

That ain't right man. You're just going to put his family through a bunch of crap they don't deserve.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Maybe so, but there are consequences to cheating. He should've thought about that before he decided to do the wrong thing.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

They should give us the first pick in the draft AND force them Rams to surrender to us THEIR 1st round pick.

And if you're watching, the league is desperately trying to give KC the win too. They just got away with a blatant pick play that went uncalled, and there have been some phantom PI calls going their way too.

This is sad. I love football. I am very sad right now. Roger has ruined the game.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Brothers, y'all need to call the f*ck down - we're better than this - Remember, when you do stuff like this, it reflects on all of us...

Seriously, Halo blessed us with an eraser - geaux back to your post, click edit, and delete that man's family address...

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Nope, not gonna, sorry. I didn't have to dig hard to find it, which means anyone can. I've just cut out some of the leg work. I don't advocate violence against the man, but calling him up and writing him to tell him about what an ******* he is, that's something I can get behind.

Like I said, you do the wrong thing, you suffer the consequences.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Folks the ref is just a symptom of the disease - disease being Roger Goodell

Until the worst commissioner in the history of professional sports is FIRED the Nutless Fixed League will remain a scripted pseudo-WWE sports league that will decline in viewership.

We’re all sick of the Brady fix Roger.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Two brutal losses in back to back years. Hats off to the guys for coming back this year and having a great season. I have no desire to talk or think about it anymore. Peace and Love!

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

The ref that blew the call lives in a $3.7m house... nice!

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

Give 'em hell Harry.

Deleting my PG13 trashtalk after someone took it way too much to heart.. was in the dome for eagles loss last week and listed to trashtalk for 3 hours.

Could we file a lawsuit legally for being assaulted without a flag

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

That PI/Helmet to helmet hit was not the only outrageous non call in the game.
I’ve never seen a player put a lick on a QB 3 seconds after the ball was thrown and not get called. Ever. Ginn was bear hugged by a DB while the ball was in the air on a sure catch on 3rd down. They knew the refs weren’t going to call anything so they just did whatever they wanted. It was cheating plane and simple.
Cam says he had 3 sacks on Geoff he eased back on because they were sure penalties. The Rams knew they were gonna get away with it

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

If it was plastered across the worlds newspapers Payton Would be out of nfl forever banned by goodhell I will forever slap a ram on the ass and say sure u won baaaaaah

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

He’s fuoooked lol

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

I see Chris Love, the class of Philly has shown up to talk smack a week after his Eagles got cooked twice this season by the Saints. You're a very courageous guy.

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

U da man Harry petition for goodhells ass out sign here

Re: NFL’s worst nightmare unfolds in New Orleans
 

I have a friend that flat out hates the Saints. I got a text from him after the non-call. He said that play will go down in history as the worst non-call in the history of the NFL.
