didn't load, but even if you want to argue tipped, the guy that should have thrown the flag wouldn't have cared or even seen the tip. His job is to throw the flag and then pick it up if it is determined that the ball was tipped.

According to the rules if the ball is tipped it negates pass interference

I wonder why it didn't load, the video shows Suh was in position to possibly tip the ball

I know... what I'm saying is that the tip would cause the flag to be picked up. There was no tip called so how would that side judge know not to throw the flag?

I was just going by what NRC said, he was told by a ref that the ball was tipped. If it was tipped, it should of been personal foul helmet to helmet. So NRC was completely wrong how he played it, if anything he could of had an interception

I understand the the sentiment of Saints fans , but other calls were missed that easily could have left the Rams in complete control before overtime so you would have redo those errors as well

While I think they were screwed by the non-call they still had a chance to win. Blaming the ref can only go so far. They had the lead with less than 2 minutes left and they got the ball first in OT.
An interesting take:

One person who has grown tired of the constant talk is Rams left tackle Andrew Whitworth, who called into The Rich Eisen Show to talk about the game. Whitworth called the arguments from the Saints and their players “an excuse” and pointed out how the Saints had plenty of chances to close out the game after the play, saying “the reality is, football was played after that snap.”

Whitworth echoed the sentiment many Rams fans have been sharing on social media, imploring people to look at “how many times the [play] clock was on zero when they snapped it, and the different face mask calls that were missed in the game.”

Whitworth said many calls were missed on both sides, and that the missed face mask call on Jared Goff at the Saints’ 2-yard line on the preceding drive arguably had a bigger impact on the game because if the Rams had scored a touchdown there, the Saints would’ve been down four.

“It’s hard to say that the last foul is the foul you want to argue about that’s missed, I mean if you’ve got to argue about that one, then you have to go back and fix the others,” Whitworth added.
