This one is on the refs!

And yea, Lofton had his hands on the ball at one point, but it was never secured. It was knocked out, before he stood up, before he had possession. There was still fighting for it when he had it, no clear possession. The first person with clear possession was Cam.

Negative. Lofton had the ball on the ground. You can see him with it when he comes flying in. He stands up with it and then has it stripped out. There wasn't a single Panther touching it when he stood up.

NFL Network wouldn't show that part, but I rewinded it and watched it about 10 times during the review. It was Saints ball. Not even close.

Yeah I hated how that one ref dropped the ball in the end zone, let's not even forget how he kept throwing high. Completely pissed me off smh

[Brooklyn Bully]

cue the haters/

 

Hey i know there were some bad throws there by cam and many drops by receivers and no olsen again and crappy shula and ron and blah...blah..blah

 

but we recovered that fumble.... shoulda been  0-0

 

saints 3rd TD i believe every fan on the planet could see that there were HUGE holds on almost every play.... shoulda been 7-7

 

regardless of the jackwagon call to not give williams the TD... KB was interfered with big time on that second down and again on the high pass by CAM...    shoulda been 14-14

 

so there it is.... this one is on the REFS!!!!!!

Yep

But the saints wouldn't have scored the 3rd TD if they would have called grounding.

Refs did suck, and IMO were 1 sided, but they didn't cost the game.  Williams was down, and the saints did recover that fumble (miraculously as we had 3 lineman derp like a toddler eating feces), the hold on the 3rd TD drive was mind numbingly obvious.  Outside the numbers and jersey going everywhere, if it had been us, it would have been definite.  The Cason interference was no worse than some of the non calls I saw against the panthers.  Also, Brees had 3-4 intentional groundings that somehow didn't get called, he's done it for years and somehow gets away with it.  Like I said though, that was NOT the reason we lost.  The panthers went full retard at receiver dropping 5 passes, and have absolutely no passing game between a 1-3 yard pass and a 40 yard bomb.  If we don't start funning crossing routes and get Olsen cranked up, I'm gonna lose my mother fuging mind.  Defense did alright, but this isn't the 2013 defense, they can't stay on the field for the entire game and still make plays.

[Mr. Scot]

Refs definitely blew their fair share of calls but we sucked too bad to really blame them.
