I do not have a dog in the fight but with around 1:30 left in Q4, a pass by Breese to pick up a third down cannot be caught as a Safety hits the WR a good 1.5 seconds before the ball gets there.

The game is tied and if a flag is thrown then the Saints bleed the clock and attempt the game winning 30 yard field goal with 2 seconds on the clock. Since there was no flag Saints kick the longer field goal, but gives time for the Rams to kick a game tying field goal. The Rams then got an interception and they kicked the winning field goal.

Terrible no call.

The Rams did have to make plays but terrible job by the officials.

Horrible call...but you have no sense of time if you think that hit was 1.5 seconds early.

the Rams player involved admitted that he thought he was going to get called since he did not turn around. there was also what looked like a helmet to helmet. a shame for the Saints.
