Exactly what I was screaming at the tv

How can the refs not know this

If they don't screw this up, it's already over, because we were going to get a FG there.

As usual, the NFL screws us.

I hate zebras. It's so hard to continue to give a damn about this sport. The NFL has zero integrity, imo.

And this time, Lutz gave them a huge middle finger at the end.

How is it that I'm sitting on my couch scratching my Lutz and I know that and the head of officiating for the NFL screws that up?

Refs tried to steal another game from the Saints with that bad penalty call for roughing the kicker.

I mean, if the refs are reviewing it, how can time run off? That seems like common sense.

And the broadcast acknowledged it only at the end of the game when the saints look like they won by 6

How do they keep getting away with it ? And something like that, with all the technology that is available ? The NFL operates like it's offices have moved to New Delhi and it is staffed by locals

The ball wasn’t dead
In theory had the right play been called it would have taken the saints (or any team) ten seconds to get back to the line
It’s the right call but obviously wrong time

My problem is it’s not like they didn’t have time to sit down and get it right. They rushed through it and screwed up again. It’s a recurring theme, and it always seems to go against the Saints.

 

[BoNcHiE]

fork the NFL. Seriously.

Multiple refs looked at that and they still got it wrong. It didnt even logically make sense for that much time to go poof.
