The Vikings shut them down o
in short yardage situations all night. In fact, about the only time New Orleans did move the ball in that type of situation was when they got the favorable spot on 4th and 1.

I'm sorry to all the Vikings fans out there, but that game wasn't lost because the officials "screwed" you, or because the Saints "cheated" or any of the excuses made.

Aside from the phantom TD (and the "no use challenging it because they *probably* would have scored anyway" argument is kind of silly), about half of the drive in OT didn't come from the Black & Gold. It came from the Black & White. Pass interference? The only way that ball was catchable was if Meacham had somehow developed an 8 ft vertical. And there was so much juggling on the following play that there should have been a clown involved.
Google vikings saints officiating. The only people not pointing out how badly Minnesota got screwed are the Saints fans.
