UK FALCON UK Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Thankfully it does not matter but another bad game from the officials in favour of the Taints should come as no surprise, here is some of the stuff i think they missed or got wrong.1. missed a blatant pass int. call on a deep ball to Roddy in the first qtr.2. missed a number of holding call on thier O-line. esp on Abe and 1 on Matthews.3. 2 offside calls on Beirman and then Abe should hav been false starts as the center clearly moved first on both.4. Turner, forward progress on the fumble.Don't ever leave a game against them on the Officals!!WE DAT!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Negatorris Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Feels good to finally stick it to the Aints and the Refs at the same time. Funny how they were undefeated in Novemeber in the Sean Payton era until they faced SF and us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Flight Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 100% agree with every single one. Especially numbers 1 and 3. I had the Skip Bayless facial expression like "are you kidding me?!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaJoe Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 If I were the Falcons organization I would be putting a video together and sending to the League with my OFFICIAL "We're Angry Birds" letter signed by Mr Blank, TD, Smitty, etc.The propensity that this crap keep happening with is just mind boggling.PS - the "incompletion" by Brees earlier in the game was IMHO (and Mike Mayock's) a fumble. Why? Kroy hit his arm before it started coming forward, and the ball was clearly dislodged from Brees' grip BEFORE his arm started forward.Also... I've seen same type situation ruled a fumble by refs just this season, then confirmed by replay booth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dog Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 These refs needs to be suspendedand ordered to have their eyes examined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous how flagrantly bad the calls are when we play the Saints, and they always seem to go in their favor. That PI non-call on White was the worst thing I've seen in a while. If that isn't PI, what the **** is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

direwolf Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 To be fair, Owens got away with PI against Colston in the end zone (there's a great photo of it on the AJC's website and his right arm is clearly wrapped around Colston's waist) and we got away with a few as well.Not excusing the refs - really seems that they try to give New Orleans the benefit of the calls whenever they can. But we did get a few, so that helped out some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high impact Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 They also missed a holding call on William Moore late in the game on a screen pass the announcers even said looks like the Saint player almost used an armbar on Moore.

B_Lo_Touchdowns Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Well the Refs will be jumping off the saints bandwagon now. Back to the sewer skanks fan, the free ride is over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4dabirds Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Exactly. It's ridiculous how flagrantly bad the calls are when we play the Saints, and they always seem to go in their favor. That PI non-call on White was the worst thing I've seen in a while. If that isn't PI, what the **** is?It was the worst, because it killed the momentum, and robbed the Falcons of getting a bigger lead early on. I wouldn't complain about it, but I've seen crucial 3rd down plays like this, change the outcome in games past between these 2 teams.

dmo_dlo Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 missed or called PIs or holds are subjective, but that Turner fumble wasn't. That was blatant miss. I have never seen the whistle not blown on a play like that after the guy is gang-tackle for 4 seconds by 4 defensive players. That was a shameless call.

UK FALCON UK Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 and i was waiting for them to award a TD after the review on the Turner fumble. Honestly would you have been surprised if they did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 U can have an arm around wr. As long as u don't impede his route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4dabirds Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 U can have an arm around wr. As long as u don't impede his route.You can't hold on to an arm or a jersey though. The defender slapped and grabbed at Roddy's arm, because he was beat. It was a well thrown ball and Roddy's route was impeded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
