[Mega Merged] To everyone who thinks the refs are out to get the Saints (1 Viewer)

[sfidc3]

Here is the Saints record from 1985- 2005 159-176
7 winning seasons in 21 years

Something happened after that. Ill leave the "conspiracy theories" out of it. But the officiating was on our side for a few years.

Not so much on our side just maybe more objective….also we were just that much better than most teams in 2006, 2009 and most of the time to the present….

I'm 2009 the refs we're never against us except maybe the last 3 games.

Fact: Brady never won a Superbowl without a top 10 Defense..

But whats intriguing is the fact that some how or another, every team he goes to, Brady finds a top 10 defense, look at Tampa, they never were Top 10, not much changed when Brady arrived, and WAM! now they got a defense all a sudden, same way in NE when he left, where is that defense now once Brady departed?

Take a look at his offensive line. He always had 10 seconds to stand in the pocket. The GOAT won those titles because the NFL didn't call holding.

Yeah they stopped calling penalties midway through the season his first year in Tampa. Tampa was always good for 8-10 penalties or more a game.

It’s all about gambling. There isn’t some savant or soothsayer in Vegas that is always right days before the game is even played that makes them so accurate. It’s a great system that allows all the players to compete without any trace of complicity because there isn’t any accountability for their pawns who do the dirty work. Is the NFL ownership complicit? Yes, but they are in the business of making money. And we keep feeding into it every week by watching. It’s getting old

But these terrible calls started before gambling was legal in the U.S.

He took his Magic Sauce with him. Supply dried up, no more success.

Bookmakers invented the NFL so people could gamble on it. The NFL would never have survived if you couldn't bet on it. FF took it to new levels also

Refs were really bad during Haslett years to, even as bad as that defense was, officials did enough to swing 2-3 games a year that would cost a playoff spot.

They were bad in the dome patrol years but only when they faced a top caliber team like Dallas or San Fran.

The classic "49'er Huddle".

Total BS post….I’ve been watching the Saints since 1970….in the last 3-4 years (starting with the infamous no-call) I’ve witnessed unprecedented calls go against us or not called on the other team. If you can’t see that you are blind…..

1977 and 20/20 vision.

Minneapolis is a disaster.

Don’t worry…they are on the verge of a race war between the progressive/Somalians and locals.

That’s another aspect.
If the League was against the Saints, why create an entire new division with the other “bad luck teams.”
The Saints since realignment have become the most successful team in the division.
Why not put them somewhere else where they could be the Lions of the division?

It's called logistics!! They try to group teams in geographical areas. And before you say what about Dallas and Philly and NY those were established rivalries before realignment. But what you're really missing is that the league controlling more of the outcome of games really got into full swing when Rodger Die in hell took office

But even during Goodell’s reign, the Saints rank 4th in wins.

You can put enough weights on a sprinter to where they don't get the gold but still get a medal.
