I don't like the Lions but it's tough to see one team getting all the breaks with the officials.

There was no way that should have been a TD, the whistle blew because it looked like an incomplete pass, halting any advance.
That was a horrible spot in the 3rd quarter, but the Saints are 3 for 3 on 4th down tonight, so I like their chances on that one.
As for complaining about holding? Jesus, man. EVERYBODY does it. They're arguably the best offensive line in football, they might get a few calls.
