Kinda dispels the "NFL wants the Saints in the Super Bowl" conspiracy theory, huh?

I said it made more sense ratings wise to be LA and NE,.. if we are going by viewers in markets, people who don’t give a damn about football that watch the Super Bowl anyway,.. etc.

anyway— suck it Saints— feel the burn baby— we had to feel it with Manning and against San Francisco in that divisional game,..

The amount of crying national media members are doing over the blown call is embarrassing. The Taints only scored six points on their first two drives and that smug arrogant Payton egregiously called for a throw on first down. Nobody mentions that though because they love Brees. It’s sickening and pathetic. The Saints and those national media members can suck it!

The point of them throwing on first down after the huge play has been lost in all this.  The Rams had two time outs left at that point.  Granted, it was a high-percentage throw and should have caused the Rams to burn a time out, but it didn't.  A run would have.

And you also hit the nail on the head.  The Saints left a lot of points on the field in the first quarter, when they were controlling every aspect of the game.  Getting the ball on the Rams 16 and turning that into a FG is not a victory.  And if not for an offsides on 4th and 2, they could have left more out there.

Yes, the PI that was not called was a huge miss at a critical time.  But, if they make the plays, they don't have to worry about that call.  The Rams defense was huge in that game, holding LA in the game early when they could have been run off the field, and eventually making the big play (the pressure and the interception that followed) in the clutch.
