    Saints lose!

    I know that a lot of folks don’t watch football here but I do. And I am very happy the saints lost today by 3 pts in ot! I am not an LA fan and I actually like Drew Brees. All that being said you all know what they say about karma and payback! I hope Brett Favre was watching today’s game ! And I still can’t believe they let Gregg Williams coach again in the NFL. Those of you that follow the game know what I’m talking about. Now if KC nocks The patriots out it’ll just make my day complete!

    Yeah...the Saints lost. Just couldn't overcome two crucial no calls on pass interference on their last two possessions in the 4th quarter.
    Guess the NFL wants to pump up the TV ratings for the Super Bowl in L.A.
    Just a little more evidence that the NFL is a bought and paid for league.

    I prefer to think that it’s payback for all the missed calls against Brett Favre and the Vikings in the 2008 championship game

    Sure the calls were bad. The play calling and time management was worse. When will teams that are inside the two minute warning quit THROWING the ball. Especially when the other team only has one time out left. If they run that three times, kick a field goal there's about a minute, maybe less left in the game and no TOs for LA. Seems a lot less likely they get in FG range under that scenario.

    The NFL has apparently admitted to the Saints that the missed pass interference call was wrong.
    Too bad Saints...on the other hand the referees said that the cash payment from the Rams was much appreciated.
    More importantly...TV ratings from LA for the Super Bowl are expected to be near record levels.
    Another NFL playoff game bought and paid for...

    Hoped for the Saints only because Drew Brees seems to be a decent fella.

    My feelings exactly...
    Brees is a good guy...there aren't enough of them in the NFL.

    Was hoping for the Saints vs Patriots in the Super Bowl. Got half what I wanted.

    Saints got hosed. Refs blew the call.

    I ignored the NFL all season due to their non response to the protesters. I was ready to give up my self imposed ban for the SB until the zebras determined the play off results. The NFL and their SB can happen or not. I don't care.

    Couldn't care less have not even looked at a score in several years. Used to be a rabid football fan but not anymore. So?d every bit of football attire . Figured i could recoup some of my money and everything i sold might keep someone from buying a new one.

    I saw Replay on the morning news. Yep, big missed or avoided call. And I truly hate OT in NFL, might as well just use the coin flip to determine who wins.
    Wasn't looking for it, nor really care anymore. Used to be big saints fan growing up. But not any more.

    Not really a big Chiefs fan but that kid Mahomes (from my alma mater Tx Tech) & Andy Reid really had their mojo going until the refs took over & handed it to Tom/Bill...
    Would've been nice to see new breed of QBs in SB but I guess you can only have one old & one new...

    Speaking of bad calls, dont forget the one in the Pats/KC game. I think they were under 2 minutes to play. And the ref called that bogus personal foul on the player who swung his arm by Brady without hitting him in the head and Brady still had the ball in his hands. Gave the Pats an automatic first down and 15 years. Without that call they would of most likely lost.

    If you look at that call on the Pats/KC game concerning the personal foul, it was a good call. You can see the front of Brady's helmet move downward, so the call was good. It didn't move much, but it moved.

    Yeah. First the SB commercials got all politically correct and boring, then the kneeling controversy, and now the first NFL games I've watched all season were so full of such obviously biased and suspect refereeing that I just don't see the point of ever following the NFL again. It's sad to see what it's become.

    I am holding fast with my lifetime NFL ban. I went to a Saints party and watched not a second of the game. We had pot liquor soup and cornbread to eat.
