Super User Darren. Posted January 20, 2019 Super User Posted January 20, 2019 I would be OK with a Rams win IF they earned it. But if those two calls from the refs they utterly miffed decide this game, I'm gonna .... dadgummit. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted January 20, 2019 Super User Posted January 20, 2019 Congrats Rams, but let's be honest, the game was over if the refs made the right call in regular time. I hate when refs decide the game. Hate it. Quote

Global Moderator TnRiver46 Posted January 20, 2019 Global Moderator Posted January 20, 2019 Hahahha . Refs or not, LA took that one. Hoping for a blowout chiefs victory now 1 Quote
Super User Gundog Posted January 20, 2019 Super User Posted January 20, 2019 Can't blame the refs. The Saints had to win the game and came up short. There were a couple of calls that could have been made but that is how all games go. Quote

Super User NYWayfarer Posted January 20, 2019 Super User Posted January 20, 2019 Well as usual my predictions are flawed. Bree’s and Brady not this year. Hopefully my AFC prediction goes sour as well. Rams Chiefs would be an infinitely better super bowl 1 Quote

There wasn't a single pass interference call on either team in regulation, so the defensive players continued to push the envelope to see what they could get away with. Similar to an umpire calling a certain location strikes during the game, even though by the book, those pitches should be a ball. Both teams benefited from the lack of pass interference calls. If I were a Saints fan, I would resist the temptation to blame the refs. Your team had a 13 point lead early, a 10 point lead in the 2nd half and a 3 point lead with under 2 minutes to go. You had the ball inside the 20 with under 2 minutes to play and, because of coaching decisions, ended up only burning 15 seconds off the clock to leave the Rams with 1 timeout and 1:44 to play. You had the ball first in overtime and got to play the game at home, where the crowd gave your team a decided advantage as far as the ability for either offense to communicate. Do you really want to say you needed a call at the end of the game in order to win? In any case, the Saints are a great team, had a great year and most likely would have won the Super Bowl had they made it. 1 Quote

Actually, Bradshaw & Montana were the ones who won Super Bowl after Super Bowl. Brady is more like Roger Staubach, win a couple Super Bowls, lose a couple Super Bowls. In fact, if he loses one more, he ties Jim Kelly!! ? 41 minutes ago, A-Jay said: Wow ~ That was Good & Bad. A-Jay A-Jay, as a Patriots fan, would you say that victory reminded you of the many close Playoff/Super Bowl games that Belichick has won over the years? I'm not saying that McVay is the next Belichick, just that the way the game played out reminded me of the Tuck rule game as well as others. Quote

Well, I don't follow football closely...just cheer for my 'hometown team' (was born in Worcester). All I know is that Brady has more SB rings than anyone else. I'm kind-of, sort-of following the game now - just getting updates through Google. The Chiefs seem bent on just handing the ball back to the Pats everytime they get possession. They need to up their Offensive and Defensive lines otherwise it's going to be more than just a loss...it'll be a blowout. Quote
Super User Darren. Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 Welp. Chiefs should be very thankful the score is only 7-0. Correction. 14-0 Pats D is eating Chief's O line for dinner. Was hoping for a better game than this. Plenty of time left, but goodness, Chiefs better put some points up or it's gonna be a long game.... Quote

Whelp - 2nd TD for the Pats just before the end of the Half...this is going to be a long game for Chiefs fans. Quote

Yep. I edited my post a minute ago to note the score. Don't feel like editing it any more for the rest of the game. As Mike Greenberg tweeted (ESPN): Quote We are watching a coaching clinic from Bill Belichick. Best offense in the sport, unstoppable in all 17 games this year. Scoreless. Quote
Super User jbsoonerfan Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 I have coached for 13 years and I have said that an official NEVER decides the outcome of a game. However, I was proved wrong today. Saints should have won the game. Helmet to helmet, pass interference, defenseless player, you name it, and it should have been called. This is ONE time that the refs cost a team the game. 2 Quote

Actually, Bill Belichick has more (7, he won 2 as an assistant with the Giants) and The Rooneys have six rings from their Steeler wins. As far as players, Charles Haley (49ers & Cowboys) also has 5 rings, but since you don't follow football closely, I figure you wouldn't know what a great player he was and his history in the Super Bowl.

Super User flyfisher Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 Bad officiating has been the norm all season and the Saints game was no different. It didn't cost them the game. Sure it made it more difficult but they couldn't close the deal on multiple opportunities. KC is back alive as well... Quote

I was talking more of offensive side as they're the one's who score most. Owners and Coaches are a whole different ball of wax. Just now, flyfisher said: KC is back alive as well... How'd they sneak one in?! Quote

If the ref had made that call, a call they had not made the entire game for either side, they would have potentially given the game to the Saints. However, the game was still tied at that point. However, who knows what happens the next 3 plays (turnover?) or if the kicker even makes the kick. The scenario would have been different, if there was less than 5 seconds left, the Rams would have approached blocking the kick differently than they did where a penalty would have been more costly. Heck, the Rams could have even let the Saints score a touchdown on the first play in order to get the ball back & have a chance to tie. The Saints had that game in their grasp, they found a way to not win. To pick out a non-call as costing someone a game in a tie game is just factually incorrect. For Payton to cry about it is really weak. 1 Quote
Super User jbsoonerfan Posted January 21, 2019 Super User Posted January 21, 2019 So they decide game to game what is PI and what isn't? There wasn't a call all game that was as obvious as that one. Quote
