I won't blame the refs
Sure they missed the call, but in the end they all even out.
The problem that has been a theme for the Saints is the inability to get 1 yard.

Agreed, but...
that is total bullshit that he was that far over the line and the refs didn’t call it.
Go Saints!!!!

Every year
…it seems that God’s finger points at a team and He says: “It shall be you.” This year, so far, that team seems to be the Denver Broncos. They should be 1-2.

Can someone tell me...
what makes you think Gramatica would have made a 38 yard field goal? If the game of football was played on still frames, there would be alot of non calls. Ever wonder why NOONE MENTIONED IT ON SUNDAY Not Joe Buck, Not Troy Aikman, Not anyone on this site or anywhere else. Why, because it happened THAT FAST. Look at the clock. 2:20. You know when the ball was snapped? 2:20. That means Winborn was over the line a split second before the snap. So fast that no one caught it with their naked eye. That happens alot in the NFL.
Like Steve said, you had to get a yard, and the guy who made the play, D.J. Williams, wasn’t the player who is “off-sides”. Point the finger where it deserves to be pointed – playcalling. Drew Brees threw for 500 yards, but when the Saints needed a yard, where did they go? Not Reggie Bush, Not Drew Brees, not even Deuce. They went to Pierre Thomas, the same Pierre Thomas that got stoned at the goal line…..

I don't think that we are wanting to change the outcome of the game...
We did miss other opportunities. It just sucks that once again, the outcome of a game was possibly changed because of horrible reff’ing. That is indisputable…

Again...Incorrect...
The Hochuli call was wrong, obvious in front of everyone…
This “non-call” wasn’t seen until looked at on split-frame still shots the next day. If I took every coaches tape, and broke it down into series of still shots, I’m sure I can find all kinds of calls. The Hochuli call was unfortunate, and I have said that. But I won’t let the inadequacies of Gramatica get overlooked by split-second still photography.

Again.....
The defender was in the neutral zone before the ball was snapped. Either stationary, or moving into it. He was either off sides or jumped the snap. The line judge should have called it.
The Saints lost that game in the first quarter. However, they had several opportunities to take back a win and failed. Just let us wallow in our misery, will ya?

Misery, I can do that...
You guys will be fine, I still think you win the NFC South, and by the end of the season you’ll be 100% heading into the playoffs….That will be scary.

You haven't been paying attention to the Saints in the last 40 years, have you?
