The Whiners Game
 

Listen people. That game was fixed. Their long TD early...should have been PI on them but not called. The call on Garnder-Johnson that gave them a let TD was complete Bull****. I still pull for the Saints. I always will, but the NFL has become as rigged at the NBA ever was. Roger is clearly pulling the strings in favor of the markets that he feels generate more revenue because the league is driven by TV add dollars.

It's not even up for debate. The NFL is rigged. If you disagree you're an idiot. Sportsmanship be dammed. I'd pull my team from the field when this happens again next week on Monday night, and rest assured it will happen again. Enough of this bull****. SOMEbody needs to take a stand and call Roger on this fake bull****.

The Saints are more profitable for Roger than some of these big market teams.

Yep. It doesn’t mean the teams the NFL doesn’t want to go to the Super Bowl CANT win it, they just make damn near impossible. If anyone else gets there it’s because they were able to overcome a barrage of adversity.
I will say I thought today’s officiating could have been worse compared to most. Something is very wrong when one can say that like it’s expected and accepted.

The NFL starts with the strength of schedule and then hands out ****ty bye weeks, short weeks, and travel distance to put teams they don’t see as money makers in the worst possible position to win. Then comes the officiating.

Wouldn’t surprise me if next year we had to travel to one end of the country to the other every week, get the London AND Mexico game, and get a bye scheduled for preseason game 2.

It’s all about the narratives and TV ratings.

The NFL has no legal duty to field a fair playing field. They are designated as sports entertainment just like pro wrestling.

I knew the refs where going to do their thing. They always do against us.

Re: The Whiners Game
 

How bout somebody on D make a play besides Vonn Bell, and we would be celebrating a win.

Re: The Whiners Game
 

We did make plays. And we were flagged for them.

It was a tough loss, but it's on to the Miss Universe pageant :heart:

Re: The Whiners Game
 

Officiating wasnt so bad at first, but like in the nfccg it wasnt either until later in the game and its not as much of them being flag happy as it is not calling anything when they should. 49ers though i believe targeted cook on that td, even though it was flagged. Cook was on verge of burning them to a point they would of never been in the game.

Re: The Whiners Game
 

The refs made the calls late in the game that needed to be made to keep SF in the game. Not even up for debate. That much is clear.

Re: The Whiners Game
 

Sean Payton and Dennis Allen aided to the L.

Both were pretty suspect today with their play calling. Going for 2 early in the game, using AK instead of a freight train Murray on 3rd and short/not converting and that ridiculous fake punt were colossal momentum changers in a tight ball game.

No way should we have allowed Jimmy f*n Garrapolo to go 75 yards in 53 seconds on us the way he did today.
