Brees and the Saints offense were great again after a few off games, and the Saints are in perfect position. The Steelers have to win next week and hope the Browns beat the Ravens if they want to make the playoffs. I don't think the Saints are playing that well. Good thing they are winning. But they better get their stuff together. Or --- like the Chiefs and Chargers --- they will be "one and done" in the post season. Good luck to the Steelers --- long shot to make playoffs.

The Steelers are definitely one of the 12 best teams in the NFL and they will not make the playoffs. Part of that is on them, and part of that is on three horrific calls, two in the Chargers game and one in the Saints game. Can't blame the refs. If the Steelers did not have a habit of self-destructing (self inflicted wounds) the bad ref calls would not have made a difference. Every team gets bad calls. Every team does not self-destruct. You give the team a free touchdown on a bullshit pass interference call in a game that was lost by 3, and that's on the refs. Yes, it was the first quarter. But that was not pass interference on a 4th down play. It's 100% bullshit. Somebody should get fucking fired tomorrow, but bullshit NFL won't have the balls to do so.

I don’t uktimately blame the refs...but they were garbage in that game. To say otherwise means you didn’t watch it.

Touchdowns in a close game should be called out every single time. It was a bullshit call. They lost by less than seven points. Fuck the refs.

The Steelers haf 2 costly turnovers. The refs had nothing to do with that. And I will have to check. But before the game, the sports announcers and pundits were touting that the Steelers were a minus 7 in the turnover ratio coming into this evening.

All I'm asking is for refs to do their fucking jobs. And may everyone of you be butt rheemed when it happens to you if you have no sympathy with what happened today.

The Saints offense was much improved today, they had had a few off games but they were very good today, Brees had a great game and they got Ginn back which is huge, it gives them a solid 2 receiver.

Yes, one team may get worse calls during one game. But it all equals out during the season. The Steelers are 8-6-1. Do you think the refs lost all 6 games for them this season? The Steelers are now a minus 9 in the turnover differential this season. Do you blame the refs for that?

On NBC games when it’s third down they do this visual effect that makes the field this nice bright green for the amount of yards needed for a first down. My question is, why can’t they just do this for the whole field? Seattle’s field looks like the Normandy Invasion took place on it.

The Saints have struggled on offense ever since the Dallas game. Before Dallas, the Saints were blowing teams out. Since the Cowboys they have struggled to beat everybody. Yes, it helps having Ginn back. But Armstrong got hurt again. And one could argue he is a bigger loss than Ginn.

Seahawks up 14-10 on the Chiefs at halftime, very good game, Seahawks are playing well and are in a good position to win, Mahomes has been held to 82 yards passing so far and the Seahawks are rushing the ball well, I think they will win if they don’t turn it over and don’t allow big plays.

Doesn't matter. They were equally good and bad for both teams. So neither team had an advantage. I am sure they do the best they can. They are human. So they are never going to be perfect.
