this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; After watching that thing last night, officiating was the least of the concerns. Jeese, ridiculous. Typical annual stinker we somehow seem to spit out early in the season, where everything in all phases of a game stunk/failed to show....

Re: Feel cheated
We came out and proved we had more talent. Gruden found a way to get more heart.

All around bad effort by players and coaches. If Brees doesn't up his game by the midway point (if he's able) I'd like to see someone else take over. |

The running backs appeared to become his first and only read. Brees has always been an aggressive player, sometimes you win and sometimes you don't, but to see him accepting defeat in the form of constant 2-3 yard gains was pretty infuriating. But there was plenty blame to go around, defense made it a catch up game very quickly and Andrus Peat just did his normal gameday things. Not to mention an absurd penalty on a perfect block by Sanders. |

Re: Feel cheated
The calls went against us consistently. They weren't egregious but we didn't get a break all night long from the refs.
