Once the Steelers had blown calls in 4 games in a row, apologies from the league bad. When asked about it in the weekly news conference Cowher said his job was to get the team in a position where one bad call couldn’t cost his team the game. The Saints had plenty of opportunities throughout the game, including doing a much better job of time management on that drive (in gimme FG range, with the Rams on 2 timeout they threw twice, wrong call, run up the gut 3 times, make the Rams burn their time outs, give them no time). They were sputtering the whole game, including their OT possession.
These comments are stupid. Cowher said that to avoid criticizing the ref's in public.
You play your heart out against a good team sometimes you eke out a win. It only takes one call to screw that pooch. Saying you should have won by more is asinine.
You won but the other team got elevated by the ref's due to democrat tactics. Sorry just no way the ref's all missed that call simultaneously
