The New Orleans Saints were not happy about another non-call that didn’t go their way in the team’s NFC Wildcard loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.
Kirk Cousins hit Kyle Rudolph for the game-winning four-yard touchdown in overtime. It did look like Rudolph pushed off. However, the NFL indicated that officials took a look at the play and determined that there wasn’t enough for offensive pass interference.
Following the game, Saints fans inside the Superdome were seen throwing trash at officials as they exited the field.
Stay classy, Nola.
We know it’s frustrating. That’s especially true after what happened in last season’s NFC Championship Game.
Even then, there’s no room in professional sports for this. Show some restraint and maturity.
