Oh well, I could very easily see the Saints give the Lions their first win next weekend.

As a curiosity, I wonder how many folks think the NFL pass interference rule is OK, and if they think the same of NHL rules proposed to help with offense? It's apples and oranges, but I'm a defense first guy. I'd much rather see hard fought 21-14 NFL games and hard fought 2-1 NHL games.

My initial impression is that many think the NFL rule is OK, but would rather not see NHL reules enacted to increase scoring. Just an observation from my time here on CP.
I didn't mind the fake punt as much as throwing twice after they had stuff the Saints on 4th down. What the heck kind of call was that on 4th down by Payton anyways!?

Pass Interference rule is ok, it's the refs that suck. Should have been PI in the end zone at the end of regulation and not in OT. If a ball is underthrown and the receiver is running back into the defense, it shouldn't be PI.
