The ball was coming out before he was down. The Bears player stripped it. It's a fumble 😛

No. That's not even close to what happened. I'm sure up there and Chicago they only showed the good angles that favored Chicago. His knee was clearly down before the ball moved at all.

You're wrong, Mill. I know, I know, you'll never admit it.. but you're wrong.

He'll never admitit beause he isn't wrong. I am far from a saints fan but it was clearly his upper body slamming onto the ground that caused the ball to pop out of his arms.

Watch the replay again. The ball was moving before he made any contact with the ground. It was already on its way out.

There were two different angles. On one, his knee was down before the ball started moving. Then, his knee came back up, the ball bobbled a bit, he pulled it back in, and then his elbow hit the ground and loosened his grip. AFTER he hit the ground, the Bear's defender put enough pressure on the tip of the ball to cause it fall completely out.

I have no dog in this fight. I'm just telling you what I said -- as I am not cheering for either team. I rewound it and reviewed it with my HD Tivo about 10 times. It wasn't a fumble, and there WAS indisputable evidence of that.

I don't care what Radio Stations are saying in Chicago no more than what stations in NOLA are saying. Both will be biased.

no. the fact that rex had a TD and over thrown it.

also those turnovers were far into saints territory. but they continue this crap there is NO chance for them to win.

If by they, you mean the referees, I wholeheartedly agree.

to bad you can't be fair and just enjoy the game.

less stress that way.

What another BS call against the Saints offensive pass interference...that was BS!

no.

but it was iffy. something that nicky pick shouldnt be called

They said on TV that it shouldnt have been a flag...that it was too picky of a call given the field conditions.

Joe Buck is a BASEBALL announcer with hardly any real insight into football. They only have him on the playoffs because he has a pretty voice. If you're in Chicago, turn on 780AM and mute the idiot box.

Joe Buck has called all the fox games for years now with Troy...I don't know wtf you're talking about...

Nice pass followed by another strong run from Benson. I sense the Bears finally hitting paydirt.

yeah. that was a great run.

but damn the Saints have a good red zone defence.

Fair? I don't really care who wins. I'm a Bills fan. I'm calling it like it most painfully obviously is.

Another FG coming up.

yeah.

the red zone defence is awesome for the saints. very impressive.

That...and Rex Grossman is a complete retard.... 🙂

well yeah. he had 1 for sure TD he fvcked up. another he under threw (though that was not a gurenteed td).

but they (NO) have been awesome in the red zone.
 
Gould is golden again..but honestly da bears should be up by 21 points...sloppy finishes by the bears.

c'mon saints, capitalize on this and start scoring some TD's!

they finally put Thomas Jones in and he could make that easy catch...grr

I saw the replay multiple times. Ball moving != ball flying out once player contacts the ground.

Thats my point. You can't say "ohh..the ball was moving before he hit the ground, so uh, it must be a fumble even though once he actually hit the ground the ball shot out of his arms."



 
I find it HILARIOUS how the Chicago fans are accusing everyone who is NOT a Saints fan of being biased or a whiner.

The rule is that if he's loses control before he hits the ground, it's a fumble. The the call is accurate.

And I don't think he had clearly lost control of the ball. Whatever though.

You should watch it again. His knee went down BEFORE the ball moved, then his knee came back up, the ball moved, then he went down AGAIN and the ball came out due to a combination of the ground and the player hitting the tip of the ball.
 
so far im not impress with bush. but mecallester (sp?) is one taugh SOB. seen him drag a few people. also when he gets hit he does not go back often. usually sideways or foreword.
 
I completely agree with the announcer....saints should've come out running instead of make Brees try to force it...

in the past couple of games, bears run D looked weak and the saints should've come in to today's game to first try to exploit that weakness...instead, they try to gun it and look what's happening.

SHAKE OFF THE COLD SAINTS!

i don't think its the cold. more of a case of a ****** field.

I am also suprised they are not running it more. the last few games it seemed like the bears could nto stop the run (up the middle anyway).

On a side note, the visuals on that Sparta movie look great. I'm going to add that to my netflix queue.

If you can find it on Netflix. It's not out in theaters yet.
