I have an Easy fix. Get over it. This is dumbest thing ive ever seen. I watched the game last night. All kinds of stuff doesnt get called. From different perspectives It looked different. Could they have called it sure. Penalties reviewable is goofy.

How about all plays can be challenged? Gee that was simple now pay me 35 million a year

BS, 4 refs from that game currently live in so-cal and probably wanted rams to win, yet roger does nothing to fix referee issues

Replay at request of coach. See I did it. Easy.

The game has evolved into a game of penalties. Most games are decided by what penalties the refs call.

Yes. Yes there is. It's called replay. You already have it. Replay ref should be able to overrule bad calls or at least get a review. Put it in for last 2:00. Done. You can't fix it now, true. But for next year.

Official looking directly and unobstructed at play. Did not call interference nor helmet to helmet contact calls? What is his explanation?

Saints don't deserve to be in any postseason game until they fire Sean Payton. One of the reasons I don't watch much NFL anymore. They shouldn't have let him return after they knew he was putting contracts on opponents to hurt them during games. Worst coach EVER!

Why shouldn't coaches be able to 'challenge' a call? (like in tennis) Have a head ref 'upstairs' that can do a quick video review of the play and then rule. Limit the number of challenges to X per quarter....so that it doesn't get out of hand or start taking too much time. Well?

At the time it took place there was. Now, of course not. Just like they planned.

Fire the ref

Hire more zebras . More eyes less missed calls . It aint rocket science . Ffs

He’s an arrogant SOB. A fantastic season, the product of hard work & dedication, was cut short by total, complete ineptitude. The Saints deserved better . . .

Quit acting like this is the first play to have repercussions. .Every game in every season has trash calls that affect outcomes. The packers had 3 games stolen this year alone. This game has been taken over by Vegas years ago. ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN benefits gamblers and bookies.

How about start reviewing penalties? Problem solved... RobotRefs

Well, there is, but if every call/non-call were to be checked with video replay, games would take six hours.

Nfl is fake as hell. The wwe is more real than nfl.

Louisiana Congressman Cedric Richmond wants NFL's Roger Goodell in DC to address Saints' lossEven with a federal shutdown, Rep. Cedric Richmond wants to haul Roger Goodell to Capitol Hill to discuss the NFL's botched non-pass interference call. Poor Cedric doesn’t realize that the NFL needs to succeed in LA. At least for a couple of years. Bet the referee's with the botched calls had some serious money bet on the Rams.💵💵💵💰💰💰 Gee, another democrat with inane priorities. Maybe he should be persuading the BOTOX queen to fund the border wall and end the partial government shut down?

Roger Goodell admits blown call in Rams-Saints; NFL will consider replay for pass interferenceThe commissioner offered the first public acknowledgement of the missed call that helped decide the NFC championship game, but said he never considered having the teams re-play the finish.

Goodell on blown Saints call: 'Our officials are human'While he admitted publicly that NFL game officials -- as New Orleans Saints fans would spell it -- 'bleaux' a major non-call in the NFC championship game, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said it was not under consideration by him to overturn the game and have it replayed. Didn't seem real human to make that particular mistake. boycottbowl Wow Cool Qmap. pub 👈🏻Real News Network Qanon

‘The state of Louisiana is outraged’: Senator brings Saints-Rams debate to Senate floorBill Cassidy, a Republican from Louisiana, spent nearly seven minutes demanding that the NFL answer his questions. And let’s make sure everyone understands the context here. Without Rep. Hale Boggs & Sen. Russ Long forcing an anti-trust exemption through Congress for Pete Rozelle, the AFL-NFL merger doesn’t happen. The NFL owes its existence to the people of Louisiana & our Reps & Sens. People are suffering and he is talking about a stupid football game. Pitiful. The games are Rigged by the Referees

Legal Look: Lawsuit Against NFL For Blown Call In Saints Game Has No ChanceThe blown call was brutal. That being said, there is a 0% chance (give or take 0%) that the outcome will change. Here's why. That’s 100% correct in every state but Louisiana. We are not a common law jurisdiction. You don’t have to plead and prove equity here. The court not only can sua sponte invoke it, it would be required to under these circumstances. Same mentality of the parent who sues the coach because their kid does not play. If I’m a fan of AtlantaFalcons Panthers or tampabaybucca3 I am excited...Saints are done! Blaming refs instead of looking in the mirror and looking at other 59:50 minutes of the game

Oh good grief... It was a bad missed call, but Saints you're not the first team to lose a big game because of bad calls. Let it alone. We have a Russian asset in the White House, and we're upset about the Rams being in the Super Bowl?

NFL blasted for 'continued silence' over Saints no-callThe no-call cost the Saints a shot at reaching Super Bowl LIII and completely overshadowed the outcome of the game. You can't bribe multimillionaire players who's goal is the Super Bowl. But the refs are bribed.
