    Saints got ass-fucked by the refs. I'm not even a Saints fan, and I'm pissed.

    Official responsible should named and shamed.

    Maybe they should start letting teams red-flag no-calls, or at least certain no-calls

    Sounds like a few zebras will be fired. Doesn’t really make it up to the saints and their fans but at least it some consolation.
    Myself and I think the NFL, and most fans would have loved to see NO and NE. Brady vs. Brees would have been a great storyline for the next couple weeks.

    Actually once the football is released by the quarterback, all eyes should be on the ball, the receiver, and the defender, and if one referee misses the penalty call, others should toss the flag.

    The problem is split-crews.

    During the regular season they work as a team but during the playoff only the best are selected from the various crews, and no one wants to step on anyone else’s toes.

    It's tough to see such a critical game decided on POOR officiating. There needs to be an avenue where an obvious bad
    call can be overturned......on a side note, the Pats are just WINNERS

    Sounds like a reasonable explanation, but are you getting this from an authoritative source?

    Is this the only narrative that's being offered on the no-call?

    Instead, I propose that the half-time show be replaced with the execution of the NFC championship officiating crew.

    It’s simply the way the process works and has always worked.

    I’ve been following the NFL religiously for over 30 years so I didn’t need an authoritative reference. It’s common knowledge.
