Looks like another one for the Saints. That team is beastly. I'm not sure they can get by the Pats, but they probably have an easy road up until then. I really can't stand their coach though. Sean Payton is such a cry baby bitch. Any officiating call that doesn't go his way, no matter how much video evidence stares him in the face, he just shakes his head in disgust and screams "bullshit". Funny because I'm sure he didn't mind that bullshit holding call on Mike Peterson earlier that kept the Saint's last TD drive alive.

Yeah when that call was made I told my friend it was probably going to decide the outcome of the game.

You could just feel the Falcons were only barely holding the saints back and making a 3rd down stop to give yourself a chance late in the game only to have it ripped out from under you is rough. 

I have to admit though they fought damn hard down to the last whistle to give themselves a chance to win it.  They will be dangerous if that attitude sticks.

The Falcons really gave it their all. Between the bad call, the Michael Jenkins drop and the missed 34 yard field goal from Elam, it really cost them the game.

Did you see Payton on the sidelines though? That dude cries about EVERYTHING. You could have showed him all the video evidence, and had stopped time and let him go up to Jenkins and see his toes were in bounds and he had control of the ball, and he still would have cried about the call. Then he cried about Pierre Thomas' fumble also, and that was as obvious as day. I didn't see Mike Smith cry bullshit on any call in the Saints favor, including the holding call on Peterson. That's the different between a coach that is a class act like Smith and another Bill Belichick in the making like Payton.
