It actually was, tho. No receiver in the area and never made it back to the line of scrimmage.

At some point common sense should come into play, especially with the "intentional" part of intentional grounding.  How many times do you see a receiver and QB get mixed up on a downfield route?  How many times do they call intentional grounding on those plays?  That was a stupid call at the worst possible time.

NFL will give an actual report, and it won't be from "sources". It was grounding. Miscommunication or not, he threw the ball in the area of no one from inside the pocket. Both receivers looked like they were blocking for a screen.

It was the right call, and didn't end regulation anyway lol. He was sacked on the next play. Give me a break with the "gift".

stop. there was no pressure on that play and it was a clear miscommunication between the qb and receiver.

it was absolutely not intentional grounding. don't kid yourself into that delusion.

admit you got lucky and had help from the refs. because that's exactly what happened.

Saints had Ill gotten a free win because of Washington getting a false penalty thrown on them and no that call was not right either. The 2009 SB win was a sympathy win for Saints to.

no pressure at all. if there was pressure, then it would be intentional grounding.

but that was clearly a designed quick pass that was miscommunicated.

Was a pretty clear miscommunication between qb and receiver. If you are going to flag that, you can literally throw multiple flags a game on every qb for balls not being close to receivers.
