There was one hit in this game that is considered an illegal hit. That was Bobby McCray going low on Favre. He was fined 20k for the hit. NO other hit in this game was illegal. Questionable calls were on both sides. Sore fucking losers.
Yea, along with every other fucking team in the league the Saints did bounties. DId any of you listen to Sharpers interview? Why would a player risk a fine of 25-50k for a thousand dollars? Fucking idiots. They did bounties on plays like interceptions and fumbles. Oh well, the Saints are champs, what are the vikings? Favre choked, Peterson fumbled the fucking ball. The Vikings lost to the better team.
It was bittersweet to hear about Bountygate. 3 years after it happened? Really? Proves the NFL really didn't care to investigate. And what about the FUCKING BIASED OFFICIATING CREW THAT WERE LETTING THE VILLAINOUS PIECES OF SHIT GET AWAY WITH IT IN THE FIRST PLACE?!?!? Burn in Hell Aints. I hope Goodell and the League shove the doorknob up your ass on the way out.
I am so sad now. I can't believe the vikings would of beat the saints and then moved on to the superbowl and favre would beat peyton and be considered better then him and one of the if not the best ever
Well boys...the NFL came clean today. An investigation was completed and they say what we all know. The Saints were trying to break Favre's leg and they got away with it.
I find it hilarious that this is still the only Biased Officiating video on Youtube. And how is it that the Saints LOSE every playoff game they don't play at home? Even to the 7-9 Seahawks? Fuck the fucking cheating scumbag Saints. I hope they enjoy their only asterisk-laden SuperBowl because it sure as hell won't happen again.
I cannot stand the Saints fans, they won one Super Bowl in their history and think they are the shit. Its almost like the rules of logic dont apply to them.
NFL Football is probably the most fixed sports organization today. Especially with the New Orleans Saints. Referees refuse to throw flags against them. Watch any game with them in it and the referees kiss their ass big time and give them the game EVERY SINGLE TIME. Dirtiest team to play the game but get away with because referees just love the saints!!!
@awexsome2034 Why yes, Drew Brees franchised so offense still gonna kick ass, everyones overreacting over something almost EVERY team has done and still does just cause it's the Saints, still think our superbowl is "earned" since the hits were legal, quit bein butthurt, and we still have our ring so I don't think we are the 'Aints, quit bitchin pussy;)
@39120c I like the Taints better personally. Used to be the Aints, now it's the Taints. And if those hits looked "legal" to you then why were they fined? Why did the NFL publicly apologize to the Vikings and change OT rules because of it? We got jobbed. It's clear as day in video. Hope the Saints loose draft pick for multiiple years to come because they certainly deserve it.
@39120c Nope. But now we know what sent the Saints there. If Saints fans are in any way still proud of it they speaks all the rest of the league needs to know about their fanbase and franchise.
AFter watching this again and thinking about last weeks Green bay vs Giants game i cant help but suspect some of these playoff games are fixed. Or at least attempted fixes. Props to the Giants for beating the packers and the refs last week.
its funny how the refs tried to keep the packers in the game this sunday as well. i know it has nothing to do with this video but it shows how the NFL and the refs are involved in getting the teams they want to the superbowl!
bullsh*t calls man i swear! its not that we Viking fans dont accept the defeat its that the refs cheated us from the game! the vikings should of been in that superbowl! so the AINTS can thank the Goodell and the NFL for the rings the were basically handed. the saints were NOT the better team. even with 4 turnovers the Vikings stayed in the game til overtime. out gained the saints in every possible stat! as always the NFL cheats favre and the vikings from a superbowl!
THIS GAME CHANGED THE GAME OF OVERTIME, CHALLEGES, AND CATCHING PASSES. If you think the game was called right, your smokin some pole! The Vikings got robbed and the LEAGUE...THE LEAGUE even saw this as a disgraceful display! Fumbles the leap for the 4th down, and doesn't regain control! Never crossed the markers, and the BOOTH....terrible ending to a drama filled game! Fuck the Saints, and hope they never make it back to the big show bcuz they cheated to get in the first one!
@zlw1998 it's weird how calls favored the saints and packers in this years playoffs... packers had that clear fumble early on that was reviewed and somehow wasn't a fumble (which led to the first packers TD), and the "roughing the passer" call on on Rodgers later in the game that led to another packer TD. Still didn't help them though. I just find it weird how calls favor certain teams.
trey wingo proves himself as a hater in this vid he is a known cowboys fan and he clearly has something against the saints going as far as to lie about the rules everyone watch the vid vikings KFAN discuss NFCCG and u will see the former head of refs explaining the rules that espn trys to say dont exist here like the meachem catch the ball never moved so its a catch even if it touches the ground he had it the entire time and pierre never lost possesion of the ball so he gets foward progress
@saintsfan989 he lost possession of the ball. You are clearly blind if you don't see that. Meachem dropped the ball too, it can't be moving like that when it hits the ground. Visanthe got held (his shirt was ripped, argue that...). There was the late hit on Favre not called (on an end around to Percy Harvin). The game was full of bad calls in favor of the Saints.
They left out the roughing the pass on the last play in regulation, putting the Vikes in chip shot territory instead of an interception.. ..but I guess Saints in the Super Bowl is a better storyline.. ...fucking refs.
THIS GAME PISSES ME OFF SO MUCH! its obvious the NFL gave this game to the Saints, and the Super Bowl. The NFL thought that because of that hurricane katrina bullshit it would help them rebuild the city with a superbowl ring, but no it didnt do shit and that city is still in a dump, the people there arent doing shit about there city. I can put a team out of my own city and win the super bowl if the league gives it to me, like they did for the Saints. How this team went 13-3 bobbles my mind
I have a question for all the Vikings fans pissing and moaning about the Saints winning in OT.
If the Vikings had won the toss and kicked the GW FG in OT, would any of you have said/posted that the Saints should have gotten a chance with the ball also and the OT rules need to be changed?
Let me answer that for you: HELL NO!!!!!
I have heard Peter King, among others, say it was a shame that Favre & the Vikings didn't get a chance with the ball.
@NWLAsaintfan dude, did you even watch the video? The saints got help all the way down the field. Stay in homer land all you want, but don't pretend like the whole world dosn't know.
@NWLAsaintfan lol, stfu.... you have no idea what you are saying. thats not the point of the video. they made shitty calls that impacted the game, period. dumbass
I find it funny how Vikings fans assume they should have/would have won if it weren't for those calls. How do you know what would have happened next? Maybe they get the all correct on the 4th down and the Vikings take over on downs. Who says Brett doesn't throw a pick 6 or Peterson doesn't fumble again the next play. You can't change one call/play in a game and assume what happens net. It most likely changes the ENTIRE game to change one thing. Saints may still win, in a different fashion.
@CharlieSavage12 Last Vikings play in regulation, interception on a roughing the passer that wasn't called. Setting up a 30-35 yard field goal in a dome. I can't say for certain, but I'm about 95% certain he'd make that.
And Saints fans can keep talking all they want about crying Viking fans...but had this happened to you it would be the same reaction. Historically the Saints fans are a horrible fan base. They've got nobody fooled...bags over their heads to Who dat? Please...not this boy.
The game doesn't bother me that much anymore. Most NFL fans (except Saints fans) know the Vikings were robbed. There will always be an asterisk next to the Saints for this win. Horrible officiating and the NFL knew it. I don't buy into the "they did it for Katrina" crap. That's a tad overboard. I just think referees should be younger and better trained...cause they sh*t the bed big time in this game.
lolo saints won the very next time they met the vikes too which was the opening game of the following season. where's the confusion, saints were and presently are better
perspective is really crazy, saints fans and people rooting for the saints in this game thought the officiating was totally in the vikings favor, like all those P.I. calls etc. it just goes to show, you see what you want to see, and not see what you don't want to see, lolo
I am glad I found this video because i Know the Vikings should have won that game, but that being said, if I bring this up to any of my friends they will make fun of me for not being over it yet lol!
@karlotr993 retards. The same crap happens to ALL footballs teams. Everyone has times when they get slighted byt he refs. In the end what really matters is.... which team is truly the best overall. And THAT...is the SAINTS. period. Quit whining babies and get over it. As these talk hosts have CLEARLY lost some money betting on the antique Vikings :).
Even thinking about this game pisses me off to no end. What a fucking joke! I swear to god the NFL gave that game to the Saints because of Hurricane Katrina a few years earlier. Fucking bullshit!!!!!
@dingy5000 Please shut the fuck up about the whole katrina thing God that's getting old...The Vikqueens turned the ball over like 6 times y'all lost the game. I mean seriously your QB choked when you had a shot. So stop the should've, could've, and would've talk. There was a lot of calls that didn't go the saints way as well. Your team is 2-12 don't you have better things to worry about than this?
If it's any consolation, I think Ponder will be very special for you guys and put you in the hunt again. Long live the rivilry of Packers vs Vikes, and get that damm stadium built already!! There's just somethin about the Green Bay Packers vs the LA Vikings that doesn't excite me at all...
Is was pretty amazing how well the Vikings defense played in that game. They deserved to win and were clearly robbed. As a football fan I hate when the teams I like win because of BS calls.
Bullshit game. I'm a vikings fan and I can't even talk about this game without getting pissed. Yes, peterson fumbled multiple times, yes favre through interceptions but the officiating was so awful it took over the game. The vikings should have won and thats it
God damnit this game and season will haunt me forever! fucking saints man, the vikings were so good that year it was unbelievable now we no sidney rice, percy harvin isnt doing jack shit, mcnabb sucks my left nut, adrian is being shut down, FUCK!
@GuitarSlayer113 Mistakes? These are OBVIOUS blown calls. I missed a super bowl because of blown calls. Pass interference calls that didn't happen. A 4th and 1 stop/fumble that was ruled a first down. But most importantly, going after a Qb's knees over and over. They did the same to Kurt Warner the week before, and the same to Favre. Saints played so dirty. Maybe i'm really biased, yes. But why do these ESPN guys say the same fucking thing. Stupid fuck.
@HowlinAdamJames No, you're not biased and if I was a Vike fan I would probably still be mad about these bad calls too. I'm a Packers fan and would love to tell you that you're talking out your butt but the video evidence is clear. I'm not saying that the Vikings would've won that game if it weren't for these calls but certainly the Vikings would've had a better shot at it.
@nephilimiyr Thank you. I'm sure as a Packer fan you loved this game, but even you know there was a ton of BS in this game. The Saints cheated and the refs loved it.
Actually, watching the Vikes lose to the Falcons in the 1998 NFC Championship game was what I loved watching, that 98 team was the best Vikes team ever, watching the Falcons legitamately take the championship from the Vikes was very special to me, watching the Saints illegitamately take a championship from the Vikes was not. I do believe the 2010 NFC Championship game put into serious question the integrity of the NFL, I'm surprised that no one ever talks about it anymore.
@nephilimiyr Oh i know we blew that game. We lost Falcons won, and that team was one of the best ever with CC, Moss, Cunningham...Saints went into the playoffs and played dirty as fuck. I love Drew Brees and had nothing against them, until that game.
I think we both agree then. If the Pack had to endure the same type of officiating the Vikes did in that game I would still be fumeing likewise. I'm still not all that convinced that Favre would've pulled it out even without all the bogus calls. I remember seeing him being hepled off the field before the OT even started and thinking, he's done. Hehe, he was one tough mother wasn't he? I mean, even if the officials would've threw their flags, the guy was getting serious wounds.
@nephilimiyr Yeah i'm with ya. Favre was just trying to win, you have to love that. If any of us took those hits we would still be crying about it. Favre may have thrown a ton of pics, lost some games, but no one loved the game more than him. He wanted to win.
I'm stunned that people are still defending some of these calls. I'm no Viking fan, but look at the high/low hit on Favre; are you kidding? That's textbook 15 yard flag every time, whether the QB's a star or a 3rd string. Had the refs called that obvious personal foul, it would've eliminated Favre's 1st pick, & likely eliminate the need to throw late in the game. I'm sorry but the officiating truly was atrocious, no excuse for calls like that in a championship game.
@darshloaf I already know that i'll get responses such as "what about the turnovers?" Yes, I get it the Vikings made mistakes, but at least acknowledge the refs' mistakes as well.
This is sad. Viking fans blaming the refs for Vikes mistakes. So the Vikings had no part in this? How about not turning the ball over so much? Or throwing the ball on 3rd and 15 when he could have easily gotten 5-7 yards & still kicked a FG? So its the refs fault that Brett decided to be Brett & throw interceptions during key plays? Face it the VIKINGS screw themselves! This is not the first time they have FAILED. Minnesota Vikings: MISSED RINGS, go and watch that n sulk in pitty.
@PearlJamGirl627 Thank you! A lot of people are bitching about the plays, refs dont get everything right. They just find a way to complain when most of these weren't even that bad of calls......
@BraxtonHD You're arugment is fucking retarded. Everything you just said was wrong as fuck. I want to punch people like you in the face. The refs gave the Saints the super bowl.
@HowlinAdamJames Everyone says the refs gave the super bowl to the saints. They didn't. Theres always bad calls in a game, they cant be perfect, not refs fault Farve threw the INTs so quit bitching that the refs gave it to the saints. If the Saints lost that game, then people would make these videos about bad calls that the saints should of won it.
@Skywalker7327 You are very ignorant to say something like that. True, Brett should've gotten the call but referee's missed it. Every game have different referees. Goddell cannot tell them to only throw flags for Brady and Peyton. You can say bad officiating...
That "Brady Rule" only protects the QBs Goodell likes.Favre did not get the call.That's nothing.I saw Roethlisberger,Vick,Freeman,Garrard,Campbell,McNabb get hit late and no flag but players can't even touch Brady boy without flag and fine.NFL is a corrupt league.Big deal Brady threw 500 yards VS Dolphins,Notice Brady boy was not touched.A lot easier to complete pass when you know players are not even allowed to touch Brady boy.Players will hold up and avoid hitting Goodell's favorite QBs.
@lunchpail61 Like I said a thousand times, the ball never left his possession completely.. the ball never fell to the ground *out* of his possesion, so he gets forward progress and forward progress is enough for the first down.
@nsaucier 4th and 1 the ball moved out of his hands to a spot behind the 1st down marker and by NFL rules its the spot of the ball that matters bot the guy running with it
The vikes could've won the super bowl in 09 too. I remember watching this game and just wanted to punch holes in the wall because this game was officiated so poorly
I love how the saints fans say vikings have the worst fan base and yet, they were so embarrased with there team at one point they put paper bags over there heads
You guys beat yourselfs. The refs did not beat you. As stated previously, they could have blown the whistles on both sides. No excuse for the interception by Farve. At least you guys had a shot a feild goal. The vikings lost fair and square. What happened last year week one? Lost again. Don't blame the refs, blame your team.
@40FootballFanatic Some don't make it all. My whole family are HUGE Vikings fans and this is the only real game I get stumped on. I mean I give high respect to ANY team that beats us (except Packers, and I'm sure you know why) including the Saints. This video clearly shows that there were some bad calls, unless you are oblivious to it. Of course I'm not saying that made the game, because we did turn it over a lot and we did kill ourselves most of the game. This was a big deal though.
If the vikings could hold on to the ball they would of won.Yea they had bad calls but on both sides. Get over it. It's not because of katrina it's karma. Y'all remeber that monday night game the only reason the vikings won was because of bad calls.
@Shueb12 Yea pretty much better then the vikings fans blaming it on the refs giving us the game because they feel bad about something that happen 4 years ago.What goes around comes around.
u know what? just say what u wanna say. cause no matter what the stat say. it takes truth heart, blood, sweat, tears, and work to be championships. like the Dallas Mavericks.....
saints are not true champions because they needed refs help to win it and the nfc championship, just like the patriots in 02, 04, & 05, and steelers in 06. complete cheaters.
even though the vikes didnt win a super bowl yet, at least we're still fighting and we lose fairly rather than winning by cheating.
@Shueb12 Not true champions? They came back after losing by 10 ( tied the nfl record) and we didn't need the help the vikings did it. They had bad pentals on both sides but y'all stupid to realize that.The refs didn't make yall fumble or throw ints. Stop blaming everything on the refs cuz yall sore losers.
of course they aint true champions. forget the super bowl. they shouldnt even made it to the super bowl.
im sorry man. did u even watch this video? did u watch the bad calls? cause i watched the game many times and never saw the vikes cheat. watch this video again and tell me the saints actually won this game without sucking on the refs dick!
@Shueb12 Get rid of the best rb are you stupid bush was always hurt and barely did shit.Yes I watch the video did you watch the video with all the bad calls agiants the saints? And they did make it to the superbowl and won that's all that matters. 10 years from know they not gonna show all the bad call just that we won the superbowl. And even if they wouldn't of had bad call yall still would of blamed it on the refs cuz yall SORE LOSERS. And always blame it on someone else.HOW MANY TURNOVERS?
1. bush was ur best rb. he was nowhere near best rb in the league but he was still the best on the team.
2. i cant believe what im reading. u mean to tell me that u guys cheated but if u didnt we'd still blame it on the refs? BUT U GUYS DID CHEAT U BITCH. u say 10 years from now no one will care. look at super bowl 40. its been 6 years and what do ppl think of the steelers? exactly dumbass!!
i dont care what the stats say, it takes real heart to win a championships. not refs help.
@Shueb12 Reggie bush was our 3rd running back not our best. If you would really watch football you would know that. You prob heard some dumbass excpert say he was the best.We have pierre thomas who beat bush out for the starter,Chris ivory who ran for over 700 his rookie season and was hurt 6 games and don't forget mark igram AND darren
no u got more dick sucking ability. when i said it takes heart to win a championship i mean literally. no matter what the records say. Vikings and Cards worked they butt that year and were unfairly eliminated by the cheating ability of the AINTS!!!! just because u city went through a horrible catastrophe which im not going to laugh it because it was a horrible moment but that doesnt mean u deserve the trophy without winning it. the nfl has not only become soft, it became unfair!!!
@Shueb12 I think its funny the refs blow the game and you blame the saints. They didn't cheat just had the good end of bad calls. True champions win no matter what. And the vikings didn't. Not cuz of katrina that is just an excuss for vikings fan to use. That had notting to do with bad calls. You know the refs can get fined for bad calls? The vikings GAVE THE GAME away with all the fumbles and picks. If yall could of HOLD ON TO THE BALL yall might of won.
yes we could've not turned the ball over but if u watched the entire game like i did u would realize that the turnovers didnt cost us the game. the bad calls did. the turnovers kept the game close. had the calls been right and we not turn the ball over then it would've been a vikes blowout. the calls made the difference. for ex. the 4th and inches call. had that been corrected. vikes get the ball at the 48 yard line and we could have got to field goal range and won the game.
@Shueb12 They both did how can you say 5 turnovers not cost a game but a couple of bad calls did? If the saints wouldn't of converted the vikings would of had the ball. But farve would of threw another pick or someone would of fumbled like they did all game.If farve wouldn't of thrown that last pick yall could of won. If ap wouldn't of fumbled inside the 10 yall could of won, If harvin wouldn't of fumble yall could of won. To say yall lost the game JUST because of the refs is stupid.
listen, the vikes fumbles 3 times but only 1 was lost. favre threw 2 INT. 1 of them should've even happened for 2 reasons. the tuck rule and the high and low hit. and in OT there were no turnovers yet 3 bad calls that cost us the game. thats what im saying. we overcame the turnovers but it was the 3 bad calls in OT that fucked us up. had those 3 calls been called right then we would have easily won that game. instead the aints used Katrina as an excuse to win the game. PATHETIC
@Shueb12 How the saints used katrina as an exuse to win the game? Your even dumber thin i thought. Nottin you are saying is making sense. It had notting to do with the hurricane. You should just shut up cuz you are to stupid to talk.
1. im guess now u knw the aints are a bunch of cheaters who used the refs to win the game
2. lol so all the sudden they got championship style good? no one goes from 6-10 to 13-3 without changing anything.............unless u uses the refs. it makes perfect sense yet u dumbasses wont admit it cause u cant accept the truth. the aints are nothin more that a 1-hit ref using wonder.
i have more respect to this year's champs the packers that u aints. at least they won fair and square.
@Shueb12 The more i read what you put the dumber i think you are We were 10 and 6 then 8 and 8 then 13 and 3 then 11 and 5 And we changed over half our team dumbass. Be for you type something make sure you know what you are saying.And we didn't use the refs we didn't have to expectlly against the dike. And even if we are a one hit wonder it's more then the dikes will ever have
Try talking Shit about OT. lol its so funny how if this was switched and the vikes won like this. u would be bitching as fuck. just because u faggots got the benefit of the doubt, u start talkin bout this was a fair game. u bitch ass can clearly see this game was rigged yet u continue to defend ur faggot ass team. hope u guys get ur asses hit by katrina again only this time, faggot asses like u can die!!!!
@Shueb12 And you said you watched the game? well earlier you said yall only lost one fumble. Well one yall lost inside the red zone knocked out by tracy potter and recovered by vilma. which could of gave yall a one touchdown lead. another one was inside yall 20 and brought back to the 5 which tied the game. And the pick when yall was in field goal range for the win i think those 3 plays has more impacted then a couple of bad calls. Can you do me a favor and think before you type
ur a complete dumbass. i really hope u get some help real soon. i've watched the game lots of time and the vikes turned the ball over 5 times. let me say that again. 5 TIMES!!!!!
3 fumbles, 2 INT.
1st fumble was by peterson but one of the vikings offensive lineman recovered the ball
2nd fumble was by peterson and he recovered himself
3rd fumble was by harvin, which was recovered by the saints. only lost fumble by the vikes.
do me a favor, and get some real help. u really need it.
@Shueb12 I just watched a video on youtube i can't post the link cuz i t won't let me.... It was one of the turnovers and he said THIS IS THE VIKINGS 4TH TURNOVER 3 fumbles and one pick and that is before the harvin fumble and tracy pick and you said you watch the game? Do you even watch football? I let my friends read what you said and they all laugh and said they can't beilve someone that dumb.
dumbass vikes had 5 turnovers but like i said they had 0 TURNOVERS!!!!! IN OT but their were 3 bad calls including that horrible 4th and inches call. THAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE!!!! lol
ur a real pathetic kid. u cant even watch the full game on youtube. lol
ur a patheic, cheating, cry baby, lying, son of a bitch and i REALLY encourage u to get some real help.
@Shueb12 You said they had 3 fumbles and two was recover by dikes well they had more then that. And if it wasn't for them then it wouldn't of went to OT and wouldn't of matter dumbass. Even if the calls were rite the dikes would of turn the ball over agoaing like they did all game. and I'm pathetic and need help your the one that said he watch the same youtube video a million times GET A LIFE LET IT GO the saints kicked the dikes ass quit makeing excuss and admit the dikes suck.
it seems whenever a country gets into a natural disaster. they seem to win a championships. Japan- EarthQuake Womens world cup.. Aints- Super Bowl 44. now i guess Haiti is gonna win the Men's World Cup next year right? looooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
@Shueb12 Are you fucking serious? They lost 3 fumbles.The one right before half time after bush fumbled farve and AP fumbled the hand off. Then rice fumbled and vilma recovered. Then harvin fumbled and a d line picked it up and tried to score. Which he didn't then a pass to bush for the game tieing touchdown. You sure you watched the game? Trust me im never gonna forget the ass whooping the saints gave the dikes? And i need help?
i cant believe u saying all this stuff. FUCK Regulation. Im talking about OT. did we have any turnovers in OT? NO. were their bad calls by the refs in OT. YES!!!! 3 extremely bad calls that cost us the game. like the 4th and inches. the so called Pass Interference and the catch that never was. had those been called correctly. we wouldnt be having this conversation and the Vikings would be Super Bowl Champions. but dont worry, u guys got ur asses whipped by the 7-9 seahawks. lol.
@Shueb12 the ball broke the first down yardage while he was in the air and in possession.. he never lost complete control of the ball.. got jarred loose but he held onto it. the bad pass interference call was wrong.. but that was on first and 10 and the catch was questionable but the call on the field was a catch and a review wasn't conclusive enough to overturn it. and the vikings would have got beat down like lil bitches by the colts.. the vikes weren't built to beat the colts.
if it took turnovers and the refs to barely beat the vikes in OT and the saints beat the colts then the vikes would've blown out the colts. watch that 4th goal play again. he lost control of the ball. the defender knocked the ball out of his grip and didnt break the line with FULL control.
the PI was a bad call. and the pass was clearly on the floor. the fact the vikes had to challenge it was embarrassing. its even worse that they didnt change the call.
@Shueb12 I'm sorry to burst your bubble but he never lost complete control of the ball.. he held onto it all the way to the ground therefor he gets FORWARD PROGRESS and at its furthest point the ball crossed the first down line. I dont know how that pass is clearly on the ground.. I see a very good case of his arm being underneath it, and it was pinned to his legs. The PI was a bad call, I agree, but it was 1st and 10.. who cares? Saints left with a ring so Saints > Vikings all day
dumbass listen to the experts would ya. even they agree with me. he never had full control of ball. listen to them then tell me ur reply dumbass. loooooooooool
@Shueb12 Are you referring to Thomas never having full control or meachem never having full control? either way they said both calls on the field were correct. As a matter of fact they said that the game was called completely fair. That is *your* radio announcers saying that.. you are arguing with the guys on your side! lol
look at the 4th and goal play. and this time listen the EXPERTS!!! even they said it. the dude never had full control of the ball. the vikes player knocked it out of his grip and the aints player never passed the goal line with possession.
and the meachem play was a call that would have stood in the 08 season but the nfl made a rule that u have to catch the ball and have full control of it while coming down. the ground helped him make the catch. listen to the experts dumbass!!!!!
@Shueb12 What 4th and goal play are you talking about? you mean 4th and 1? lol... he didn't knock it out of his possession.. the ball just went from his chest down to his legs.. did you see that ball come all the way out of his possession? hmm? no so shut the hell up. I'm tired of arguing about a game thats damn near 2 years old, I'm not talking about those experts on this vid.. I'm talking about the vikings own radio commentators! you should take a listen to what they have to say.
i meant to say the 4th and inches play. for the love of god and all that is good, please listen to the DAMN EXPERTS!!!! EXPERTS. ppl who live through this stuff. they said even agree with me. im tried to talking to a self obsessed retard who talks shit but doesnt knw how to back it up. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, get some help, learn some damn football. and listen to the damn EXPERTS!!!!
@Shueb12 I will take the word of the head of officials over these so called "experts" hired by espn. Something tells me the head of officials knows a little more about what calls are fair and what calls aren't. Again, it clearly shows the ball *not* leaving his possesion completely, the ball never falls out and to the ground so therefor he never fumbled it. Again, I dont know how you can argue clear cut evidence of that, watch the video again, THE BALL NEVER LEFT HIS POSSESSION.

@Shueb12 lol the former head of refs himself breaks down the reason why PT's run is a first down and ur saying vikes<saints still 2 years later gtfo ur team is shit they went all in and got sent home HOW does it feel to know ur team one of the best teams in ur frachises history is nothing more than a footnote on the saints memorable season ITS AN L get over it
I respect Drew Brees. I respect his new found record. I respect their 13-3 record, but i dont respect this game especially in the 2nd half and OT. do me a favor and actually watch the video and then tell me that this game was rightly called. and please please please dont lie. tell the f*ing truth
Alright i was one of many americans who was touched by this city and their fight to get back after Katrina.. but please get over it it was like what this is a shot in the dark idk when but whats it been 5 maybe more maybe less years when this happened. im a viking fan and im sorry but if that was the reason they won this game cuz everyone felt bad and stuff watever. did the jets and giants deserve to win after tragic 9/11 if they had the best team then yes... really a shame... Favre Forever.....
Minnesota was the better team that day and got screwed. If that game had been reffed fairly, the Vikings could have had 10 turnovers and still won. On the other hand, as a Vikes fan, I've always thought Favre was overrated because he never took care of the ball in critical situations. We all knew how the season was going to end the morning Favre got out of Childress' special treatment SUV and it did. Worst int in the Vikings 49 year history and Favre did it in 18 games.
And as for the refs, I guess they are cowards fearing anything that can cause a riot and will do anything to avoid a riot. That didn't stop the NHL refs.
But anyway, I grow weary of this argument. It's going nowhere and it's just wasting time and energy, and more than likely it won't change anything (Vikings fans will bitch about this game until they lose their next NFC championship which they'll bitch about bad refs again). So I'll read your response to my last post and consider it done.
@DriverSim I will agree with you that the argument is pointless and won't change anything. If the NFL was going to make amends, actually investigate the issue and do the right thing, it would have had to been done right after the game, before the Super Bowl. It's too late to change the outcome now because there is no way of knowing if the Vikings would have beaten the Colts. I love football in all forms (high school, college, NFL) but this was a disgusting display by "the best in the country".
What truly irritates me about this whole ordeal is how proud the backass-wards Aints fans are of their fixed Super Bowl run and how proud the Aints organization is of it. How can you have a game turn out like this and feel completely shameless and justified in your team's "championship"? I actually felt ashamed when the 49ers won that playoff game against the Giants years ago (missed PI call) and if they would have won the Super Bowl, I would have no pride in it whatsoever.
I'm not a lawyer, or a CSI or an nfl analyst. I would love to be but I'm not...yet. I would have loved to have gone through every intricate detail of this game from the referees bank accounts, to the conversations they had, to every transaction/phone call the Saints made, to all of the crap going outside of the stadium. The sad dilemma is, I don't have access to that information! The evidence was there I assure you...but those who had access to it didn't bother to dig it up, that's the problem
@darkinsdme2 So, in your examples, you use evidence that can be used to actually convict somebody of a crime. The problem is where is that kind of evidence here? You say it's impossible to find, but shouldn't the evidence you say is so obvious and damning be there to find?
Also, would you just convict someone just because they had a motive and/or it just magically appears that they did it with no other evidence backing you up?
I'll add one more thing for the Aints fans who keep trying to polish their diseased turd of a superbowl trophy. By some of your logic and reasoning...I could go shoot someone, leave the gun, my wallet, and a picture of me next to the victim with a thumbs-up at the scene of the crime but as long as noone SAW me do it and I didn't confess to it....then I could not be convicted right? Damn....college education must have been high on Louisiana's budget-trimming list.
@darkinsdme2 who cares how many yards each team had ? Points wins games not yards.The vikings did have 475 yards of offence to the Saints 257 yards of offence but there Is a stat over looked : Vikings 475 yards + return yards 48 = 523 yards total and Saints 257 yards + return yards 212 = 469 yards total, only a 54 yard difference. If you still think yards wins games then just look at the Saints and Eagles 2009 game the total yards were close to even but the final score was Saints 48 Eagles 22.
@darkinsdme2 Do you think teams should win just because they played better then the other team most of the game ? well sorry to tell you but that Is not the way It works. Any team can play there butts off and out play a team most of the game for example : The Bengals and 49 ers superbowl we all know the Bengals out played the 49 ers most of the game but winners find ways to make plays and win games when It counts the most. Joe Montana was a master at putting together a winning drive.
@matrixstorm21 Oh, I completely agree that stats/yards don't mean everything in terms of winning a football game. technically (though unlikely) a team could have 500 yards passing and 200 yards rushing and still lose the game 3-0. The issue here is that the Vikings defense shut down New Orleans crappy offense (and it was crappy that day) and there was only one touchdown allowed as a result of a Viking turnover...and that was when a holding call was conveniently missed.
Due to the ridiculousness of missing calls (especially roughing the passer and holding), the Vikings, even with the fumbles would have blown out the Saints because of all the penalty yards that would have kept drives alive and ruined the Saints offensive possessions. Still, up until the closing of the 4th quarter and overtime, those shitty calls/no calls could have been chalked up to mistakes but...when you watched the end of regulation and overtime...it became apparent who was "wanted" to win.
If the game would have been fairly called and the Saints would have capitalized on all of the Vikings turnovers and blown them out 63-27...we would not be having this argument and this video would not exist. As I said before...I was neutral to both teams prior to this game (49ers fan) but watching this game all the way through to its conclusion left me (and many others) dumbfounded, suspicious and pissed. It is not possible for NFL officials to make THAT many mistakes during a game.
@darkinsdme2 5 (cont.). Unless you think this video is the only thing you need to prove something, but in that case, I'll just tell you to go run to mommy ESPN for all your justifications for your team losing a game.
@DriverSim Ok smart guy. The pass interference call against Miami in the national championship? Bad call. Fifth down for the Colorado Buffaloes? Bad call. No pass interference called against the 49ers in their playoff game against the Giants? Bad call. Don Beebe catching a touchdown pass after he stepped out of bounds during the Bills-Oilers game? Bad call. Those bad calls were all mistakes and we as humans all make errors from time to time....and those only happened once-twice during the game.
And go find the evidence? The NFL's/Vikings legal teams should have done that after the game. Might as well ask me to provide indisputable evidence that Iran has nuclear missiles....in other words, it's IMPOSSIBLE to do moron. There has never been a game with this many bad calls...and I have watched hundreds of nfl/college games in my life. Are you pissed when a bad call happens? Yeah...but they happen very rarely...this was one after another after another with some more piled on top.
The officials during this game were not rookies, washouts or idiots. 9 times out of 10 when someone does something repeatedly that is totally out of character for them....there is an underlying reason for doing so. And one other thing Mr. Cochran, look at the evidence represented here by not just Vikings fans but fans of other teams, and from what I have heard from fans who WENT to the game, they said the thugs, dipshits and scumbags in New Orleans would riot if the Saints didn't win.
@darkinsdme2 3. How is the story between your father-in-law relevant? Having at least one other person agreeing with you doesn't make you automatically right.
4. You should stop assuming things. I watched the game too. I perceived some BAD calls, not BIASED calls. Two different things.
5. So, basically your argument is: There is evidence that supports the refs were biased, but fuck you and go find that evidence yourself. Am I right in this conclusion?
1. You're still not providing evidence that the refs were biased. Telling me to go do homework is not providing evidence to back up your argument. I admit some of the calls may have been bad, but bad calls are not necessarily biased calls.
2. Brainless? Really? There are thousands if not MILLIONS of insults, but you choose brainless. (Yeah, I know it's unimportant, but still)
lakers? how the hell did the lakers cheat in 02? it was a sweep. why is it when the lakers sweep someone ppl accuse them of cheating and if they get swept then they threw a party. and how did they cheat in "10? im seriously how??????
steelers- i remember them cheating in 06 against the seahawks but how did they cheat against the cards. they won that game fair and square including a clutch last sec. TD.
saints- the only time they cheated was in the nfc title game which btw sucked bad.
There was one hit in this game that is considered an illegal hit. That was Bobby McCray going low on Favre. He was fined 20k for the hit. NO other hit in this game was illegal. Questionable calls were on both sides. Sore fucking losers.

Let me answer that for you: HELL NO!!!!!

Maybe they get the all correct on the 4th down and the Vikings take over on downs. Who says Brett doesn't throw a pick 6 or Peterson doesn't fumble again the next play. You can't change one call/play in a game and assume what happens net. It most likely changes the ENTIRE game to change one thing. Saints may still win, in a different fashion.

Actually, watching the Vikes lose to the Falcons in the 1998 NFC Championship game was what I loved watching, that 98 team was the best Vikes team ever, watching the Falcons legitamately take the championship from the Vikes was very special to me, watching the Saints illegitamately take a championship from the Vikes was not.

I think we both agree then. If the Pack had to endure the same type of officiating the Vikes did in that game I would still be fumeing likewise. I'm still not all that convinced that Favre would've pulled it out even without all the bogus calls. I remember seeing him being hepled off the field before the OT even started and thinking, he's done. Hehe, he was one tough mother wasn't he? I mean, even if the officials would've threw their flags, the guy was getting serious wounds.

I'm stunned that people are still defending some of these calls. I'm no Viking fan, but look at the high/low hit on Favre; are you kidding? That's textbook 15 yard flag every time, whether the QB's a star or a 3rd string. Had the refs called that obvious personal foul, it would've eliminated Favre's 1st pick, & likely eliminate the need to throw late in the game. I'm sorry but the officiating truly was atrocious, no excuse for calls like that in a championship game.

That "Brady Rule" only protects the QBs Goodell likes.Favre did not get the call.That's nothing.I saw Roethlisberger,Vick,Freeman,Garrard,Campbell,McNabb get hit late and no flag but players can't even touch Brady boy without flag and fine.NFL is a corrupt league.Big deal Brady threw 500 yards VS Dolphins,Notice Brady boy was not touched.A lot easier to complete pass when you know players are not even allowed to touch Brady boy.Players will hold up and avoid hitting Goodell's favorite QBs.

@lunchpail61 Like I said a thousand times, the ball never left his possession completely.. the ball never fell to the ground *out* of his possesion, so he gets forward progress and forward progress is enough for the first down.

You guys beat yourselfs. The refs did not beat you. As stated previously, they could have blown the whistles on both sides. No excuse for the interception by Farve. At least you guys had a shot a feild goal. The vikings lost fair and square. What happened last year week one? Lost again. Don't blame the refs, blame your team.

@40FootballFanatic Some don't make it all. My whole family are HUGE Vikings fans and this is the only real game I get stumped on. I mean I give high respect to ANY team that beats us (except Packers, and I'm sure you know why) including the Saints. This video clearly shows that there were some bad calls, unless you are oblivious to it. Of course I'm not saying that made the game, because we did turn it over a lot and we did kill ourselves most of the game. This was a big deal though.

If the vikings could hold on to the ball they would of won.Yea they had bad calls but on both sides. Get over it. It's not because of katrina it's karma. Y'all remeber that monday night game the only reason the vikings won was because of bad calls.

u know what? just say what u wanna say. cause no matter what the stat say. it takes truth heart, blood, sweat, tears, and work to be championships. like the Dallas Mavericks.....
saints are not true champions because they needed refs help to win it and the nfc championship, just like the patriots in 02, 04, & 05, and steelers in 06. complete cheaters.
even though the vikes didnt win a super bowl yet, at least we're still fighting and we lose fairly rather than winning by cheating.
Shueb12 6 months ago
@Shueb12 Not true champions? They came back after losing by 10 ( tied the nfl record) and we didn't need the help the vikings did it. They had bad pentals on both sides but y'all stupid to realize that.The refs didn't make yall fumble or throw ints. Stop blaming everything on the refs cuz yall sore losers.

of course they aint true champions. forget the super bowl. they shouldnt even made it to the super bowl.

And they did make it to the superbowl and won that's all that matters. 10 years from know they not gonna show all the bad call just that we won the superbowl. And even if they wouldn't of had bad call yall still would of blamed it on the refs cuz yall SORE LOSERS. And always blame it on someone else.HOW MANY TURNOVERS?

@Shueb12 I think its funny the refs blow the game and you blame the saints. They didn't cheat just had the good end of bad calls. True champions win no matter what. And the vikings didn't. Not cuz of katrina that is just an excuss for vikings fan to use. That had notting to do with bad calls. You know the refs can get fined for bad calls? The vikings GAVE THE GAME away with all the fumbles and picks. If yall could of HOLD ON TO THE BALL yall might of won.
20BDawkins20 6 months ago
@20BDawkins20
yes we could've not turned the ball over but if u watched the entire game like i did u would realize that the turnovers didnt cost us the game. the bad calls did. the turnovers kept the game close. had the calls been right and we not turn the ball over then it would've been a vikes blowout. the calls made the difference. for ex. the 4th and inches call. had that been corrected. vikes get the ball at the 48 yard line and we could have got to field goal range and won the game.
Shueb12 6 months ago
@Shueb12 They both did how can you say 5 turnovers not cost a game but a couple of bad calls did? If the saints wouldn't of converted the vikings would of had the ball. But farve would of threw another pick or someone would of fumbled like they did all game.If farve wouldn't of thrown that last pick yall could of won. If ap wouldn't of fumbled inside the 10 yall could of won, If harvin wouldn't of fumble yall could of won. To say yall lost the game JUST because of the refs is stupid.
20BDawkins20 6 months ago
@20BDawkins20
listen, the vikes fumbles 3 times but only 1 was lost. favre threw 2 INT. 1 of them should've even happened for 2 reasons. the tuck rule and the high and low hit. and in OT there were no turnovers yet 3 bad calls that cost us the game. thats what im saying. we overcame the turnovers but it was the 3 bad calls in OT that fucked us up. had those 3 calls been called right then we would have easily won that game. instead the aints used Katrina as an excuse to win the game. PATHETIC

3 fumbles, 2 INT.
1st fumble was by peterson but one of the vikings offensive lineman recovered the ball
2nd fumble was by peterson and he recovered himself

@20BDawkins20
i cant believe u saying all this stuff. FUCK Regulation. Im talking about OT. did we have any turnovers in OT? NO. were their bad calls by the refs in OT. YES!!!! 3 extremely bad calls that cost us the game. like the 4th and inches. the so called Pass Interference and the catch that never was. had those been called correctly. we wouldnt be having this conversation and the Vikings would be Super Bowl Champions. but dont worry, u guys got ur asses whipped by the 7-9 seahawks. lol.
Shueb12 6 months ago
@Shueb12 the ball broke the first down yardage while he was in the air and in possession.. he never lost complete control of the ball.. got jarred loose but he held onto it. the bad pass interference call was wrong.. but that was on first and 10 and the catch was questionable but the call on the field was a catch and a review wasn't conclusive enough to overturn it. and the vikings would have got beat down like lil bitches by the colts.. the vikes weren't built to beat the colts.

@nsaucier1988
if it took turnovers and the refs to barely beat the vikes in OT and the saints beat the colts then the vikes would've blown out the colts. watch that 4th goal play again. he lost control of the ball. the defender knocked the ball out of his grip and didnt break the line with FULL control.
the PI was a bad call. and the pass was clearly on the floor. the fact the vikes had to challenge it was embarrassing. its even worse that they didnt change the call.
Vikings > Saints
Shueb12 6 months ago 2
@Shueb12 I'm sorry to burst your bubble but he never lost complete control of the ball.. he held onto it all the way to the ground therefor he gets FORWARD PROGRESS and at its furthest point the ball crossed the first down line. I dont know how that pass is clearly on the ground.. I see a very good case of his arm being underneath it, and it was pinned to his legs. The PI was a bad call, I agree, but it was 1st and 10.. who cares? Saints left with a ring so Saints > Vikings all day

look at the 4th and goal play. and this time listen the EXPERTS!!! even they said it. the dude never had full control of the ball. the vikes player knocked it out of his grip and the aints player never passed the goal line with possession.
and the meachem play was a call that would have stood in the 08 season but the nfl made a rule that u have to catch the ball and have full control of it while coming down. the ground helped him make the catch. listen to the experts dumbass!!!!!
Shueb12 5 months ago
@Shueb12 What 4th and goal play are you talking about? you mean 4th and 1? lol... he didn't knock it out of his possession.. the ball just went from his chest down to his legs.. did you see that ball come all the way out of his possession? hmm? no so shut the hell up. I'm tired of arguing about a game thats damn near 2 years old, I'm not talking about those experts on this vid..

@Shueb12 I will take the word of the head of officials over these so called "experts" hired by espn. Something tells me the head of officials knows a little more about what calls are fair and what calls aren't. Again, it clearly shows the ball *not* leaving his possesion completely, the ball never falls out and to the ground so therefor he never fumbled it. Again, I dont know how you can argue clear cut evidence of that, watch the video again, THE BALL NEVER LEFT HIS POSSESSION.

Minnesota was the better team that day and got screwed. If that game had been reffed fairly, the Vikings could have had 10 turnovers and still won. On the other hand, as a Vikes fan, I've always thought Favre was overrated because he never took care of the ball in critical situations. We all knew how the season was going to end the morning Favre got out of Childress' special treatment SUV and it did. Worst int in the Vikings 49 year history and Favre did it in 18 games.

And as for the refs, I guess they are cowards fearing anything that can cause a riot and will do anything to avoid a riot. That didn't stop the NHL refs.
But anyway, I grow weary of this argument. It's going nowhere and it's just wasting time and energy, and more than likely it won't change anything (Vikings fans will bitch about this game until they lose their next NFC championship which they'll bitch about bad refs again). So I'll read your response to my last post and consider it done.

@DriverSim I will agree with you that the argument is pointless and won't change anything. If the NFL was going to make amends, actually investigate the issue and do the right thing, it would have had to been done right after the game, before the Super Bowl. It's too late to change the outcome now because there is no way of knowing if the Vikings would have beaten the Colts. I love football in all forms (high school, college, NFL) but this was a disgusting display by "the best in the country".
darkinsdme2 7 months ago
What truly irritates me about this whole ordeal is how proud the backass-wards Aints fans are of their fixed Super Bowl run and how proud the Aints organization is of it. How can you have a game turn out like this and feel completely shameless and justified in your team's "championship"? I actually felt ashamed when the 49ers won that playoff game against the Giants years ago (missed PI call) and if they would have won the Super Bowl, I would have no pride in it whatsoever.

I'm not a lawyer, or a CSI or an nfl analyst. I would love to be but I'm not...yet. I would have loved to have gone through every intricate detail of this game from the referees bank accounts, to the conversations they had, to every transaction/phone call the Saints made, to all of the crap going outside of the stadium. The sad dilemma is, I don't have access to that information! The evidence was there I assure you...but those who had access to it didn't bother to dig it up, that's the problem
darkinsdme2 7 months ago
@darkinsdme2 So, in your examples, you use evidence that can be used to actually convict somebody of a crime. The problem is where is that kind of evidence here? You say it's impossible to find, but shouldn't the evidence you say is so obvious and damning be there to find?
Also, would you just convict someone just because they had a motive and/or it just magically appears that they did it with no other evidence backing you up?

@darkinsdme2 who cares how many yards each team had ? Points wins games not yards.The vikings did have 475 yards of offence to the Saints 257 yards of offence but there Is a stat over looked : Vikings 475 yards + return yards 48 = 523 yards total and Saints 257 yards + return yards 212 = 469 yards total, only a 54 yard difference. If you still think yards wins games then just look at the Saints and Eagles 2009 game the total yards were close to even but the final score was Saints 48 Eagles 22.

@darkinsdme2 Do you think teams should win just because they played better then the other team most of the game ? well sorry to tell you but that Is not the way It works. Any team can play there butts off and out play a team most of the game for example : The Bengals and 49 ers superbowl we all know the Bengals out played the 49 ers most of the game but winners find ways to make plays and win games when It counts the most. Joe Montana was a master at putting together a winning drive.

matrixstorm21 8 months ago
@matrixstorm21 Oh, I completely agree that stats/yards don't mean everything in terms of winning a football game. technically (though unlikely) a team could have 500 yards passing and 200 yards rushing and still lose the game 3-0. The issue here is that the Vikings defense shut down New Orleans crappy offense (and it was crappy that day) and there was only one touchdown allowed as a result of a Viking turnover...and that was when a holding call was conveniently missed.
darkinsdme2 8 months ago
Due to the ridiculousness of missing calls (especially roughing the passer and holding), the Vikings, even with the fumbles would have blown out the Saints because of all the penalty yards that would have kept drives alive and ruined the Saints offensive possessions. Still, up until the closing of the 4th quarter and overtime, those shitty calls/no calls could have been chalked up to mistakes but...when you watched the end of regulation and overtime...it became apparent who was "wanted" to win.
darkinsdme2 8 months ago
If the game would have been fairly called and the Saints would have capitalized on all of the Vikings turnovers and blown them out 63-27...we would not be having this argument and this video would not exist. As I said before...I was neutral to both teams prior to this game (49ers fan) but watching this game all the way through to its conclusion left me (and many others) dumbfounded, suspicious and pissed. It is not possible for NFL officials to make THAT many mistakes during a game.

@DriverSim Ok smart guy. The pass interference call against Miami in the national championship? Bad call. Fifth down for the Colorado Buffaloes? Bad call. No pass interference called against the 49ers in their playoff game against the Giants? Bad call. Don Beebe catching a touchdown pass after he stepped out of bounds during the Bills-Oilers game? Bad call. Those bad calls were all mistakes and we as humans all make errors from time to time....and those only happened once-twice during the game.

And go find the evidence? The NFL's/Vikings legal teams should have done that after the game.

There has never been a game with this many bad calls...and I have watched hundreds of nfl/college games in my life. Are you pissed when a bad call happens? Yeah...but they happen very rarely...this was one after another after another with some more piled on top.

The officials during this game were not rookies, washouts or idiots. 9 times out of 10 when someone does something repeatedly that is totally out of character for them....there is an underlying reason for doing so. And one other thing Mr. Cochran, look at the evidence represented here by not just Vikings fans but fans of other teams, and from what I have heard from fans who WENT to the game, they said the thugs, dipshits and scumbags in New Orleans would riot if the Saints didn't win.

@darkinsdme2 3. How is the story between your father-in-law relevant? Having at least one other person agreeing with you doesn't make you automatically right.
4. You should stop assuming things. I watched the game too. I perceived some BAD calls, not BIASED calls. Two different things.
5. So, basically your argument is: There is evidence that supports the refs were biased, but fuck you and go find that evidence yourself. Am I right in this conclusion?
DriverSim 8 months ago
@darkinsdme2 Just some thoughts on your argument:
1. You're still not providing evidence that the refs were biased. Telling me to go do homework is not providing evidence to back up your argument. I admit some of the calls may have been bad, but bad calls are not necessarily biased calls.
2. Brainless? Really? There are thousands if not MILLIONS of insults, but you choose brainless. (Yeah, I know it's unimportant, but still)
