Consider this. Just a few years ago the NFL was the top flight sports league throughout the entire world. Everything they touched turned to gold.
Then they got a few things wrong. The Ray Rice issue. Then they over compensated with Zeke. There was another issue where they should have just stayed out of.
Rules are changed for the better, but end up being worse.
The consumer confidence has crested and is falling because they cannot call penalties with consistency and accuracy.
Now the league just screwed the pooch with the blown PI call that was not called. Further, even when it went to OT, the pick thrown by Brees ignored the hands to the face of the QB.
Twice the calls went the way of the Rams. Then finally the game.
Boomer was incensed by the way the game was called, and he stated what we all saw. He isn't afraid to pay the price for speaking out against the league that is now more Keystone Cops than professional football.
This mistake will not go away. Millions upon millions of pro football fans saw this gaff. To be honest, this blatant robbery.
When the product slips, as you reward a despot that is the Commissioner, how soon will the fan base erode.
Perhaps the worst day of NFL football ever.
Call it correctly, and the Saints rightfully go to he Super Bowl.
As it is, it’s another ridiculous and completely blown call - twice.
