Game Thread: NFC Championship - Los Angeles Rams vs. New Orleans Saints

[drbuck10]

Go home ESPN, you're drunk

IMO. Yes there was some brutal officiating but let's take a realistic look at this.

Saints were up by 13 and they blew it

They had the first OT possession but you blew it.

Saints can blame the refs but they also need to look in the mirror.

 

[cwerph]

I fully expect the league to come out and apologize for the atrocious non-call.

Too bad teams can't trade those apology letters for first round picks. The Browns would have picks #33-36.

Makes the league pretty much unwatchable.

 

[NCChiFan]

I feel bad for the Saints and their fans... What a blown call...

 

[The Derski]

Hey retards, the AFC game is starting. Commence thread migration.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

That was crazy.

Saints got royally fucked. That was one of the worst blown PI calls I have ever seen. Everybody on this crew should never work again.

Rams were just destined to win I guess. That call, the crazy falling back INT, Goff getting off multiple passes when he should have been sacked. Wow.

Agreed it takes a lot of bounces to go your way to win a SB

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

I fully expect the league to come out and apologize for the atrocious non-call.

They almost absolutely have to.
Goodell's got some more 'splainin' to do....in fact, a lot.

 

[Judge Fudge]

Hey retards, the AFC game is starting. Commence thread migration.

Seriously brah. Watch that r word around me.

Be there in a Sec. I gotta do something in the Rams board before I show up.

 

[Airraidtech]

Not enough to cry over.

Yeah I was being sarcastic. That’s ridiculous behavior just like people who fight or murder someone in the parking lot.

 

[Bawlz Deep]

It's been so long. Feels great. Win it all Rams.

 

[boogiewithstu2007]

Sean Payton made a good point, this is why more replay's should be used... I"m all for that, I think challenges should be made for PI calls, it won't slow the game down much because it can be used as one of your challenges, you only have so many a game so ... TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE TECHNOLOGY .... Also eliminate the no contact rule, just call PI's if it's obvious, no more tick tack PI calls, give the DB's a fricking chance....

 

[DJ]

Won't be mad if that ref is found dead tonight

Stay classy.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

I doubt they care too much what outsiders think about the win. A win is a win.

Think Pats fans care about what people think about the Tuck Rule game?

No we don't.
The difference is that was a properly officiated call to a dumb rule. This was a blatant non-call

 

[bksballer89]

Stay classy.

Fuck off

 

[DJ]

Fuck off

Triggered much?

 

[bksballer89]

Gotta love the league office. Tells Sean that hey we not only missed the obvious DPI but there was also helmet to helmet contact on that play as well which we also missed.

 

[flclfanman]

What this means either way.

If the Patriots win, it's a much different Rams team showing up to try and kill the Patriots dynasty dead.
If the Chiefs win, it's the team that stayed in Missouri against the team that ditched back for Los Angeles.

When you think about it, Los Angeles doesn't have a track record for home-growing teams:

The Lakers? From Minnesota (how many lakes have you seen in LA lol)

The Dodgers? From Brooklyn

The Raiders in the past

and now the Rams

The only team I can think of with roots there are the Kings.

Los Angeles doesn't have the pedigree of other cities and their long-standing teams, but it is an irresistible market, so I get why teams move there.

 

[The Oldtimer]

Calls are missed all the time due to angles, but any one of the 3 Blind Mice would have seen the DPI.

And "one of the 3 Blind Mice" would have seen the face mask while Goff was being sacked in the redzone. Did you even watch the whole game?? Should have the PI been called yes, but so have several penalties been call on the Saints.

 

[Chewbaccer]

Gotta love the league office. Tells Sean that hey we not only missed the obvious DPI but there was also helmet to helmet contact on that play as well which we also missed.

What did they say about the missed facemask on Goff?

 

[Ron G]

Would somebody please explain the pass interference rule to me. While Breese threw a lame duck, it did not appear to be a tipped pass on the interception.
