Saints vs Titans - Week 16 (1 Viewer)

[Bri]

How is that not a penalty on the NO defender who hit the TEN WR right in the head?

Sincerely there should be a rule that an unconscious player can't fumble....

 

[Insein]

How is that not a penalty?

 

[Insein]

Like he hit the guy in the head which directly caused the fumble. How is that not a penalty with all the bull#### they call now.

 

[Steeler]

Man, a shoulder directly to the head as the guy is completing the catch and clearly put him out on his feet. Not sure why there was no penalty call there and not even any discussion of it by the announcers

Typical.  the Saints get another call by the refs.

 

[Hov34]

That's all hair

 

[Biabreakable]

So.

Shrugs. I believe that is a legal move although it certainly concussed the receiver.

 

[-OZ-]

If I'm a RB, I'm definitely not keeping long hair. Wasn't the issue here but still

 

[-OZ-]

Think they might throw to Thomas here?

 

[-OZ-]

½ yard line

 

[az_prof]

nvm

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

The single coverage on MT is nuts.

 

[Shawnky]

Typical.  the Saints get another call by the refs.

Wait...what?

 

[-OZ-]

What is going on with Brees not being out there with game on the line?

Probably because it doesn't matter and Hill needs some time?

 

[Hov34]

Face masked the DB and took off his helmet.  No flag for either. 

 

[Bri]

Congratulations. I love his passion and determination every single play

 

[-OZ-]

Do the saints actually want to score or kneel here?

Only half kidding

 

[Steeler]

The NFL needs to get rid of instant replay.  There is no freaking way they should have overturned that TD by Thomas.

 

[Biabreakable]

Sincerely there should be a rule that an unconscious player can't fumble....

Seems reasonable.

I have heard they have been trying to protect players from concussions.

 

[Bri]

If the play is reviewed, then facemask needs to be called. Clearly they saw it

 

[-OZ-]

That Thomas guy might have a future in this league.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

My neighbors waited for the review to set off the fireworks, they’re pros.

 

[Insein]

That Titans fumble absolutely screwed me. Going against Brees and Thomas. That was about a 25 point swing.

 

[az_prof]

Thank God that Brees scored anyway and not Kamara. 

 

[Biabreakable]

Brown!!

 

[Bri]

I saw 13 with the downed K. Was I wrong? No 13 on roster

 

[Biabreakable]

Oh no Jonnu it was right in your hands.

 

[Hov34]

Like he hit the guy in the head which directly caused the fumble. How is that not a penalty with all the bull#### they call now.

Thought he was a defenseless player who got T'd up by the Saints' DB.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Took Jenkins off Sharpe.

 

[-OZ-]

I like that Tanny went for it. 

Did not expect this to be remotely close, so good on the offense.

Can't help but wonder what if Henry had played.

 

[Biabreakable]

I don't get to see the Titans enough. They did some impressive things in this game. I like what they have put together on offense now.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

I can't remember who the Ten OC is but Brown has been so underused almost all year.

They have talent. 

I'll stay somewhat miffed that MM hasn't panned out, but a playoff game will help me get over it. 

Very unlikely to beat the chiefs, but who knows?

That does seem to be the main difference. No Mariota.

I'm not sure exactly what happened to him but Tannehill at least gives their playmakers a chance.

Brown is impressive. Likely the best WR of the 2019 draft class. 

 

[Bri]

I can't remember who the Ten OC is but Brown has been so underused almost all year.

He missed most of camp. Arthur Smith, who is almost a billionaire. FedEx owner's son

 

[Bri]

Whole game....isn't Sharpe better than Davis?

 

[Biabreakable]

Whole game....isn't Sharpe better than Davis?

Davis made some plays too.

I was more disappointed with what I saw from Jonnu.

Watching the Dallas game and they are talking about Antwaun Woods being out for them there. I recall you agonizing about him not playing enough for the Titans and the practice squad shenanigans.

I guess Woods became a staple of their defensive line but now is in trouble for wacky tobacco.

You'd be shocked to listen to our ref persecution complex from the other side. I couldn't watch today, had to follow on radio. I missed some drives here and there, including whatever one in which this headshot occured. However, during the time I was listening, the Saints broadcast crew basically made it sound like the Saints would've won 60-0 except that the refs consistently bailed out the Titans with phantom calls. Maybe the Saints crew was playing to the shell-shocked Saints fans, don't know.

Wait...what?

Steeler fans think the Saints 2018 win over Pittsburgh was a ref screw job against the Steelers. They've got a case, but in today's NFL ... I'll take any win.

Not me.  I don't complain about officials affecting the outcome of games.  I made the comment because Saints fans seem to whine about officials a lot.  More or less a joke.

We do, gotta own that. It's really become part of the Saints fandom ... the referees are in our head from the opening kickoff.

A lot of us also have kind of a mini-drama inside of our heads that says that fans of all other 31 teams think NFL refereeing is perfect, and think the Saints players really did do the thing the ref called even in cases of egregious misses. We're still sulking as a fan base from the NOLA No-Call. Going to be a while before we 'get over it'.
