As much as the call in the NFC Championship was blown, in the end it was the Saints who blew a ten point lead, threw an interception, and failed to stop the Rams and their two kicks to tie and win the game.

As for the AFC championship game...that roughing the passer call was total BS.

Look

gooeypenguin I get it, they let the Rams tie the game, they threw on 1st down which stopped the clock, they lost in OT, but listen, that was an extremely obvious call, as bad as it gets. They throw the flag, the Saints get the ball at the 6 yard line, 1st down. New Orleans takes three knees, runs the clock out and scores the FG. OR they take a risk and go for the game winning TD. Either way LA is forced to burn a timeout and loses anyway. It should never have gone to overtime DESPITE blowing a 13 point lead. It all comes down to that call, according to the rules. Assuming the kicker makes the FG, New Orleans wins. The NFL admitted to the head coach immediately afterward that “We screwed it up.”

It's on the NFL completely, yeah. They need to fix their act. In the Steelers game, they called a PI on Joe Haden (while the saints where on fourth down at their own 40) when all he did was touch the back of the reciever. would that have not been called the Steelers would be in playoffs. It's BS. Pass Interference is a wuss call that should be lowered to completely making them unable to have any chance to catch the ball, like in the Saints-Rams game. and roughing the passer is also a BS penalty. I mean, if you completely knock out the passer or do a crazy hit...sure yeah. But other than that, no reason to.

Rams haters will never acknowledge the missed facemask call on Jared Goff.

Agreed. So many missed calls on the other part

Also, to make matters worse, the missed PI on Tommylee-Lewis was also an illegal helmet-to-helmet collision, a Personal Fowl. Two flags should have been thrown on the defender in that play. And to add even more, the league believes the play which took the ball away from the Saints in OT, which admittedly was both a bad play by the offense and a good one by the defense, was also Pass Interference, which again could have changed the game, although not as drastically as the first missed PI. As far as the missed facemask, there is no telling if the Rams would have scored a TD instead of a FG, only that time would have been shorter, just like there’s no telling if New Orleans would have scored a TD with 1st down and goal at the 6 had the penalty been called. If both teams had done those things, New Orleans still wins. And for what it’s worth, that missed call was less obvious, very quick. That one is missed all the time and there was no pulling, only a quick grab and release. The first missed PI was as obvious and unquestionable as it gets. In fact considering he was pushed off his feet and to the ground out of bounds, the defender in his face facing away from the play, and the ball still ten yards away and obviously not tipped. It was a ridiculous pass interference, pass interference on steroids. It was actually a terrible move by the defender and he did so because he was beat.

So you’ve got 1 questionable missed call on NO, 1 on LA and 2 obvious missed calls on LA, one of them ridiculously obvious and an absolutely crucial game changing moment. And although I don’t agree with the new rules on roughing the passer, that could have even been called on the play that took the ball away in OT, adding up to 4 game changing missed calls on LA.
