They talk about it on a few shows. But seemed like they couldn’t reshow the video often enough on the NFL network u could tell they were muzzled on elaborating deep into it, I gave up the channel for a year. And still not a fan of it because it’s controlled by the league and good fuuukdell

Not sure how you missed it unless you don't watch much but it was shown over and over and over for months. It was universally considered a horrible call.

How much media coverage at various levels did or did not harp on the call isn’t really relevant. The point is the league made a major “mistake” in a major game and there were zero lasting repercussions from it. That mistake could have been 100% accidental or intentional. Here we are a few seasons and a pandemic later and only Saints fans likely remember. I don’t see where the argument there is too much to lose is valid because they’ve already made the mistake via incompetence or deceit. Either way they survived it. They are either saying “Hey, we wanted to give LA a chance and have an exciting game”, or they say “We are too stupid to efficiently referee this Billion dollar industry that you devote your time and money to”. I honestly don’t known which is worse.

There were definitely repercussions. As I pointed out, a rule was implemented because of the play. It was not an enforceable rule, but it has kept it relevant. There is now a strong support for a "sky judge" that can make calls from the booth that point out that singular play as their supportive reasoning. I expect will come about soon and its genesis was that single call in that game.
