"and Pereira said McCary should have been flagged for getting Favre in the lower leg."
We all called that here on FR.
Heck the USA called it on TV, but NO, they saw nothing.

On a Favre interception against the Saints, Remi Ayodele hit Favre high while Bobby McCray hit him low, and Pereira said McCary should have been flagged for getting Favre in the lower leg. I don't watch a lot of football but watched this one. Some of the calls made to "protect the quarterback" were just BS. Play the freaking game.
Then they had this hi/lo hit on Favre, I was sure a flag had been thrown. No flag. Man, these guys are idiots.

Not as fake as wrestling, but getting closer every season.

The NFL fined the dude $5000 for hitting the Jets’ sanchez late. It wasnt even flagged and it was blatant.
Had it been Manning, it would have been a 25 yard penalty and a $20,000 fine.

I agree it wasn't good. 1st half the refs looked like they were all going for Favre to win. Some horrible PI calls. Then it evened out.

Bad officiating is all part of the game and which makes sports as it is.
I'm sure people want instant video cameras to reduce the quality of play and prolong the game by an hour right.

I can’t believe all the whining about the Saints beating Minnesota. I can’t tell you how many games the Saints would have won over the years if it wouldn’t have been for bad calls against them. There were horrible calls in the first half that went against the Saints. I thought the refs were trying to give the game to the Vikes. All I hear is sore losers. But this is from the land of Al Franken. What can we expect?

Clearly a facemask against Aaron Rogers in the final play of the Packers/Cardinals game. Had that been called, the play would have been dead and Azizona would not have scored...at least on that play. Hard to not have sour grapes when it was that obvious....
