PFF suggests Saints may have the best roster among playoff contenders

I think we've had the best roster for years, they just need to find a way to play up to their potential in the playoffs.

And avoid the refs screwing them like against the Rams.

Even then, we kept the Rams in the game by not converting at major opportunities.

Obviously the blown call was ridiculous by the Refs, but we had opportunities and couldn't pull away - Dan Arnold's dropped TD and settling for 3 points after Demarios Int inside the 15 yard line spring to mind.

I was in the stands for that game. In fact the no call happened in front of our section.

I came away with the same reaction - too many squandered opportunities

I think the Rams were so flat vs Patriots because it took their entire soul to beat us that day

If we are that good, we wouldn’t let games get close enough for that to matter.

When you let lesser opponents hang around, bad things happen. Punch em in the throat and play to your skill level, not theirs. Don't leave it to the zebras. Yeah we have been on the bad side of several calls, but at the end of the day, had we played to our skill level, then most of the BS would have been a moot point.
