If the refs aren’t overwhelmingly biased against the Saints, please explain this:
What happened between 2015 and 2016? Seems it started there and just got worse.
Jeff Ireland came into the picture and after he reworked the draft process, this team and draft picks have enabled the Saints to become near god status like how the 49ers of the 80s or Cowboys of the early 90s was. Its something no other team in the NFL has really accomplished since then except maybe the mid 2000s patriots going into about 2012-13.
But the Saints is one of those teams that is not suppose to be like this, not by the NFL standard. Same with teams like Cle and Det. I dunno why it would make the NFL look bad, but they tend to want teams with alot of history and tradition in the big games and SB.
I am actually surprised they never tried to get KC into the SB long before Mahomes and Reid, as they are a pretty good draw, but then again they see Brady as a bigger draw. They believe GB is a big draw for a SB with KC, but reality will set in when and if they manage to make that matchup happen where KC will destroy them about as a bad a San Fran did to Denver in the SB. Thats where you shake your head at the NFL, same with when they let LA Rams in it over us with the no call, you knew the Rams wasnt about to win that SB.
But thats my pipe bomb so to speak. Its also predictable of whats going to happen, I actually see GB getting upset before NFCCG, so lets see how that plays out.
