here you go. i found the clip of the bad calls from that saints/vikings game. my bad the favre high/low was in the 3rd quarter
Wow that's bad. Especially the calls that continued the Saints drive. Just 1 or 2 bad calls I would chalk up to human error, but that's just ridiculous. And I'm saying this as somebody who hoped the Saints would win because as a Packers fan I was (and still am) mad at Favre for going to the hated Vikings. But I find it impossible to say that the Saints beat the Vikings fair and square. They had tons of help.
If the Vikings and Saints played 5 games the Saints probably would have won 5, and even with those calls they still MIGHT have one, but if you can look at those calls and say the Saints BEAT the Vikings, you have some sort of Saints blinders on and aren't looking at it very realistically.
As I said before, they did win the Super Bowl fair and square though, so no shame in that, but I can't help but think they shouldn't have been there.

its clear there are people on this website with those blinders on. who knows what the outcome of the game would have been without those calls but its clear the vikings should have had the ball with a chance to kick a field goal in OT although that hit to favre and missed pass interference in regulation means the vikings would have had more points on the board and there wouldn't have been an OT to begin with

It's very likely the Saints would've still won, bad calls and all. It's possible the bad calls could have changed the game, either at the time or the outcome, but it's even more likely the Saints would've still won. They've had horrible horrible calls (and a huge lack of calls against opposing teams) against them this season (2011) and they've still managed to win. The results of the players actions, mostly Favre throwing that classic stupid pass he liked to do that ended his last two playoff runs the same, are what stick out. As much as I would have liked to see the old man get another Super Bowl in terms of the sport there was no way I was rooting against my Saints.

but you are talking about a pass that wouldn't have happened if they called something in favor of the vikings. that pass INT that was not called would have given the vikings 3 or 7 more points in regulation so in the end no OT

oh well. i'd be embarassed to be a saints fan looking at that. clearly the nfl had some sort of hurricane katrina pity trip to the SB for the saints. i even watched that game at a saints fans house and he said "geez is it that obvious the nfl wants the saints in the SB"

Goddamn. What are you, a Sky Pointer? One of the Fish People? Are you Tebowing now? You certainly have a lame ass axe to grind. Do you live in Minnesota? If you do then I feel sorry for you - but you get what you deserve living somewhere where you could freeze to death. If you don't, well then you just have a shitass attitude.
Which one do you find more offensive - the Saints "winning" this game or the Seattle Seahawks making the 2011 playoffs with a losing record as division winners?

Well then that explains it - you're a Jets fan.

Indy has a two game winning streak and are now as good as St Louis and Minnesota, Houston is quickly showing it won't win one game in the 2012 playoffs. Cincy in, NY Jets out? Giants are out anyway, even if they beat the Jets.

AGAIN!!?? at 12:13 in the 2nd quarter the lights go out again...
what kind of shanty stadium is that place?
Is that a San Fran forfeit?
Well, it's pretty old. The Beatles played there for crying out loud, for their final concert. But there are plenty of old stadiums, and older (Fenway, Wrigley, etc), that manage to have games without multiple power outages.
The lights are back on now, I don't know why they're standing around chit-chatting.
I cant believe they never even bothered to clean up the blood pools on the field where Dirty Harry shot that guy.
just seeing if anyone is paying attentions...Quote

Dirty Harry shot Scorpio at Kezar Stadium not Candlestick Park.

Boy, the Broncos sure are getting bent over, by the Bills of all people who haven't won since October. I don't think there's enough "Tebow Time" to overcome a 40-14 hole with 5 minutes left.

It was a miracle though. Much like Jesus with the loaves and fishes, Tebow took one football and fed 4 different Bills players with interceptions.
Well the spread went down to 2. So it's a push. No reindeer meat for dinner and Santa can go about his merry way.Quote
