I'd hoped for competent officiating Monday night

Exactly - you will notice - the stance of both men. Jamal is obviously - as he was in the previous shot - going for the ball - while Matt was going down -

Read the rules again - He must grasp and move the player with the face mask. Incidental face mask is no longer in the rule book.

That did not happen - I can go get shot for shot if you want by frame?

All true, but that kind of hand-to-helmet contact is frequently being called a personal foul these days when a quarterback is involved. It was clearly a great non-call from a Falcons point of view (and probably from a pure football point of view as well), but I think we'd all be ranting if the shoe was on the other foot.

Wait a second.

Are we really trying to argue there shouldn't have been a penalty called on Anderson? I can do nothing but shake my head - please tone down the homerism.

It doesn't even matter if it qualified as a facemask. You cannot touch the helmet of a QB with your hand.

But I disagree with you that it wasn't a facemask Jamal ran by him and reached out as Matt was moving back to his left and Jamal stuck his hand right into his facemask.

Either way, it doesn't really matter. You can't hit a QB in the helmet at all.

1. Luck
2. bad Referee calls
3. the other team just laid down and gave the game to us

None of our wins were earned.

Gee, that sounds just like the list of reasons Falcons fans gave last year to discount the Saints success.

Funny that eh?

Perspective, sometimes it's a bitch.

BTW, I am not one of those fans.

As much as I am hating the Falcons success this year, I don't think it comes from anything other than good play and coaching.

Unfortunately.

Bastards.

AMAZING!!!

I troll many sites and it appears many Saints fans are enamourmed with Hockyoulee. This is fascinating because most Falcons fans are wary of his crew!

This is good stuff ya'll and they know,...they KNOW we're aware and watching.

uhhh,...Rothlisraper was again hit in the face tonight. Get over this inconsequential,...stuff boys.
