In this game one “call” or non-call DID in fact decide the game

If the refs do their job then anything before and after is irrelevant.

That absolutely cost the Saints a trip to the Super Bowl.

Otherwise its just being willfully obtuse.

In regards to the missed call in the Saints game. What are you guys wanting to

Taysom could have used that $200k bonus. Goodell needs to make Tayson whole.

Flag for PI. Next question please.

All-American

1/20/19 6:18pm

How? They missed it. Do you want to stop every play and review?

777

1/20/19 6:19pm

The question is: how does a ref miss that call? That’s the issue.

AD4

I get it. Human error. How did that ball go under Buckners legs, how did

777

1/20/19 6:24pm

Human error is one thing. That was egregious.

AD4

1/20/19 6:31pm

And there was more than one "human" involved. If not call the PI, why not the helmet to helmet either? They

They shouldn’t have missed it. Next question.

All-American

1/20/19 6:27pm

You’re not answering his question. Once the call has been missed, what do you

Costanza

1/20/19 6:29pm

That’s what is wrong with his question. Shouldn’t have come to that.

All-American

1/20/19 6:37pm

But it did. Refs are going to miss calls, even obvious ones. So how should the

Costanza

1/20/19 7:21pm

Not make obvious errors.

All-American

1/20/19 7:34pm

Fine. Don’t answer the question. Just be obtuse.

Costanza

1/20/19 7:37pm

The question is what should they do. The answer is call the penalty.

All-American

1/20/19 7:52pm

Not every play, but there is already an official reviewing replay.

WhiteKnight

It's not too much to ask for those type of calls to be made.

byubyu

1/20/19 6:19pm

In reality nothing can be done. You can't go to replay for every missed call.

mudpupper

1/20/19 6:21pm

why not? Why not allow the review official to decide if there is a need for a review. This play it was clear contact

ChinaFan

A review ref could find holding on about every single down.

mudpupper

1/20/19 6:29pm

So true. And offensive and defensive PI.

777

1/20/19 6:31pm

I think they would be able to manage their holding calls like on field refs do, but there

ChinaFan

1/20/19 6:31pm

Add a challenge flag or two for calls.

Adrielle

1/20/19 6:21pm

Let it be challenged. If it stands the challenging team loses a TO.

Albuq_Coug

1/20/19 6:21pm

Oops, what Adrielle said.

Albuq_Coug

1/20/19 6:22pm

Make the right call. It was an obvious call. Make it.

LifeLongLakerFan

1/20/19 6:22pm

In my opinion, the same officials that review plays should be watching, and if a 'missed' or "no call" happens, they

RockyBalboa

1/20/19 6:27pm

Every call decided that game. If a call goes against you in the first quarter it

777

1/20/19 6:30pm

But the context matters. You can't pretend all calls affect the game the same.

WhiteKnight

1/20/19 6:48pm

Explain. They all matter. I don't understand this logic. It's just the last

777

1/20/19 7:00pm

It has been explained, and you’re right that you don’t understand it

RockyBalboa

1/20/19 7:17pm

It has not. Explain. How does a end game missed call impact more than

777

1/20/19 7:32pm

Because you have fewer chances following a blown call at the end if the game than at the start. It's pretty simple.

Didn't the Saints win the OT coin flip and throw an INT? Seems like

777

1/20/19 10:04pm

Right. They had a chance. Singular. Not chances, like they would have had the call been in the 1st qtr.

SpiffCoug

1/20/19 10:06pm

This is how to troll people. Well done.

RockyBalboa

1/20/19 9:19pm

Maybe we are talking about two different things. What I'm saying is that all

777

1/20/19 10:00pm

Either you're obtuse or trolling. Either way God Bless you.

RockyBalboa

No, you are just being condescending. I don't think you know the

777

1/21/19 2:13pm

Ok, so it's just obtuse then, not trolling. Got it.

RockyBalboa

You win my friend.

Same reason why failure on the first exam is different from failure on the final

But coaches look at the game as 60 minutes, so if you haven't separated yourself
