Terrible no call

Sports betting has got to have something to do with this. I'm so tired of watching terrible refs in EVERYTHING.
So they are using SEC Refs in the Saints / Rams game? I am pretty sure I saw one of those refs say roll tiiid, ‘er Rams after that no call.
NFL coaches refs to not make calls that end the game like that. It's more about the money and keeping the game close. ESPN does this as well. More advertising revenue. The number of viewers spike at the end of the game like this.
I'll binge watch the latest season of "When Calls the Heart" with the missus in two weeks if New England wins tonight.
Amazing that refs can choke just as bad as players. I think the ref just forgot to throw his flag, then it was too late.
This was USFL level officiating. Somebody find out if that ref was named Dick Pace.
Well, the NFL got what it wanted -- the LA market over the New Orleans market. Lots more eyes to watch the SB, maybe even enough that could fill the Chargers home stadium. Do not be surprised to see the Chiefs get screwed later tonight. A New England - LA matchup, just in potential market, has more potential than NO or KC -- they'll figure out a way to get Brady's Bunch in...

The league called Payton and admitted they missed the PI but also said there should have been a helmet to helmet called on the DB and that was something the replay officials could have reviewed as well!!
Talk about rubbing salt in the wound.
If those officials still have a job at midnight something is seriously wrong.

Sorry bro, but that’s a complete ******** take.
Oh, and the NFL had to get an LA team in, and this was their move.
I’m sick
Another thought. Rams may match up better with the Pats or Chiefs for a better super bowl based on the models they used to predict.
It was a ****** call and probably cost the saints the game, but the conspiracy theories are stupid.
If the saints dont settle for FGs early, or their offense doesnt go full retard at the end of the game, we aren't even having this discussion.
So you start the post by saying the saints got screwed, but then say it's their own fault in the 2nd part. Kinda like... well sure she got raped, but what was she doing wearing those skimpy clothes, out that late, that sorta stuff
It was a bad call. Humans making a mistake. Not coordinated collusion with the commissioner to put LA in the super bowl. If the saints had played better it wouldn't have mattered.
I understand the disappointment. I'm not happy with it either. But some of yall sound like ole miss fans crying about the officiating.
Does the market size of the teams have that much of an impact on the SB ratings? I would've thought pretty much everybody watches the SB regardless.
It's what they can charge the sponsors and then the merchandise market potential. Having a blowout super bowl means loss to the NFL. Follow the entire money picture. NFL does. Get used to that. In the SEC as well
IT WAS A GOD AWFUL CALL!
But... You really cannot say the entire game rested on this one play.
The Saints really had a chance to put this one away early in the first half and didn't do it. They had LA shut completely down and that is something no one has done at that level all season.
LA is a damned good team. The Saints are a damned good team. I guess because I'm not a Saints or Rams fan I just enjoyed a crazy *** good game.
All week the narrative about the Rams never winning a game with this crew chief was drilled into us. Not sure at what level it came from, but rest assured they were warned not to make calls that "decide the game."
The Saints were called for 3 penalties in the entire game, so it's a bit of a stretch to think there was a conspiracy against them.
This is a case of two guys looking at a play, praying nothing happens they have to throw a flag on, then waiting for the other guy to throw the flag because they didn't want to be the one, and it just gets screwed up.
On the other hand, the NFL should have known better than to assign 2 officials (at least) from southern California to officiate this game. Use some common sense.

And that fine, mistakes happen. The two refs that watched it happened should be fired, but they won't be. They will publicly admonish them while internally praising them. If there is any discipline it will be minuscule compared to a no call that changed legacies. The amount of work it takes to make it to a championship game at this level is tremendous. All to be thrown away by incompetence that will go unpunished is unacceptable.
