Sean Payton is unhappy

That was a blatantly bad no call. Any coach would be unhappy. The Saints being a hated rival doesn't mean I want the NFL to have bad officiating.

Everyone seems to be implying that Payton is concerned with the no-call on the, um, "incidental" pass interference at the end of the game? I, for one, am positive that Sean is also quite concerned about the no-calls that went in the Saints favor earlier in the game. Cause he's such a stand up guy.

He can suck a big D.  Saints window is closed, don’t get mad bro just rebuild like everyone else

Explain how their window has closed when they just won the division title again and has added more pieces to an already potent team. Perhaps the window has closed on another nfc south team that you're obviously not ready to admit. In your little world, there's always next year, right

With all the technology it is pretty ridiculous that something could happen like it did to the Saints.  There needs to be a team of officials that review every call or non call with the ability to step in and pause the game to allow the right call to be made.  Too many games every year are determined by bad calls and while it is impossible to prevent this entirely, technology could minimize bad calls without impacting the flow of the game.  If TV timeouts are acceptable and don't impact the flow, an occasional pause to make sure the right call is made is the right move.  

I think it is ridiculous that this has been put on the coaches/teams to legislate bad calls with a singular challenge flag.  The fact there is actually a strategy to challenging a missed call is ridiculous.  

Like the Saints or not, they won that game and should have been in the Super Bowl.

I don't have a problem with what happened last year, thought it was a good call.

Even if it wasn't, bad calls happen all the time, where was Payton when the Carolina Panthers were getting screwed over in the 2015 Super Bowl?

Go pound sand you convicted cheater.

In the same vein, are we really going to change a rule every time a bad call happens in a big game?

Same as changing the rules about tackling a quarterback because Brady got hurt. I hate that kinda sh-t.

Seemingly lost in all this are the multiple calls/non-calls that went in the Saints favor during that same game.

Payton and the sports media have totally disregarded that aspect.

Bottom line:  As long as humans are invovled mistakes will be made.  The superior team needs to dominate in a manner that reduces the chances of officiating errors swaying the outcome.  Anyone who has ever played sports (and many who are just observers) understand this truth.  Sean Payton and the Saints need to get over themselves.

As much as I hate the Saints and enjoy their tears something does need to be done about this. It will only benefit the rest of the league. If we could have challenged a couple different plays, we beat the 49ers in the 2014 playoffs, we likely win SB 50.  If you want to make the game more fair than we should be in support of this.

The problem with that logic that these are professional players. Some of the best athletes in the world are on both sides of each team. The margin for error is incredibly small. Even blow outs can come down to the root of a few big plays. The coaches and the players work too hard to get cheated out of the game by a poor officiating crew. And we the fans pay way too much money just to see our favorite teams get screwed.

How many officiating errors (called and uncalled) do you think occur in any given game?  

I bet there are hundreds.

How far should we take this in-game litigation?

No matter how far we take it, there will invariably be games where it doesn't go far enough for some team.

IMHO, the game is already long enough without adding more delay's to the process.

Dominate the game, win the game, win the season, win the Super Bowl.

I think that particular point gets lost a lot.

I'm sure if you looked hard enough, you could find penalties on most of the big offensive plays, big defensive stops, great special teams plays etc etc.

    • Oh for those tired of the Mannings I have bad news, Peytons son Marshal already has college teams after him and he isn't even in HS until this fall...   I'd wager we have two Mannings in the NFL in 2030
    • Push em to the brink!!! Shut em down Freddie!
    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.
