I wouldn't say thats why they won. Did you see those two 50+ field goals and great defence. Anybody could call bad officiating in any given game...the RAMS would've beat the Saints the first time they met too, but the refs didn't give us our first down...it was a bad spot...it happens...it all pans out in the end. Sorry for your loss bro, don't give up on your team.
There is no doubt that, had the ref made the right call, the Saints would have been able to run most of the clock off, kicked a field goal, and been bound for the Super Bowl.
I haven't given up on my team. I've given up on football. Unless and until they solve the referee issue. Bad calls are one thing. Bad officials are another.

I do not follow football much at all, especially at the NFL level. (I may root for the MSU Spartans) I hope the law suit goes forward and they have to postpone the Superbowl. From the replays and commentary all over the news, it seems the missed call was really egregious.

Re-do the game from that point on. If New Orleans wins, sobeit.

Realistically, there's about a 1% chance of that happening. They lost in overtime...they had their shot.

GO RAMS!

Agreed. $$$ triumphs over good sportsmanship every time. It would cost the NFL millions to postpone their big event.

Which is why I would love to see it happen.

It's not a question of sportsmanship...we played our game and we played it well. Saints fans have issue with the officials. They would probably make more money if they did postpone.

So does the NFL for not calling the foul. And they fined the offender big $$$.

Not really. They would be eaten alive by contract violations with the networks and the advertizers.
