Santana clearly had his hand UNDER the ball...AND...on the 'Aints only TD drive, they clearly did not get the ball snapped before the play clock ran out but no call and they gained good yardage down to the 2 and scored in the next 2 plays. A loss would have compounded the frustration, but still very glaring no calls. Yeah... and last year, Plummer didn't fumble on the goal line and Allstot got in.

i agree with those 2 missed calls, but i thought the refs overall did a good job

i thought the refs were crap, lots of missed calls. was embarassing how long it took to realize that brees was past the line of scrimmage when he threw it. also, may seem small but refs messed up big when saints stretched for a first down but wasnt tackled while stretching, and was actually tackled short of the first. the delay of game they missed was huge like u said, and they missed a clear hold on carter on a drive the saints eventually got a first

They were crap, they missed couple of holding calls and one that was clearly a push in the back when Carter was rushing the QB. They were shit and I hope they don't get to ref in the playoffs.

That no call on the delay of game was extremely too obvious. The pass to Moss was close, but I certainly felt Moss had caught that ball.

They missed quite a bit of calls today. I don't know if they were just "letting them play" or what, but I wouldn't say they did a good job.

They made a huge mistake with less than 1 min to go and the Saints were driving. Reggie Bush caught a pass, he was tackled in bounds, but the official stopped the clock thinking he had gotten out of bounds.
Several seconds should have been ticked off and NO would have had to blow a time out.
The worst non-call by far was when Carter broke free after Brees and he basically got tackled from behind. Horrible non-call.

And what about that pass (think it was in the first half.) Brees was pressed and threw the ball away. It should've been intentional grounding. The ball never made it back to the line of scrimmage.

I didnt think it was horrible, but certainly not good, what really got to me was Carter was being held from behind on sevreal occasions, and not one call.
