NFL.com doesn't have it up which gives me a feeling I am correct.

Did anyone record that game.....I honestly thought Heyward tipped that pass as it came off Brees hands.......instead the refs flagged Haden for the Pass Interference which IMO was absolute BS.

Can anyone go back and show me I am wrong.....that pass looked like it was tipped at the Line of Scrimmage!

Refs obviously didn't see it but I thought it was tipped......NOW I'M JUST CURIOUS!
 
It was VERY close, but the fact that SEVERAL players were motioning that it was tipped leads me to believe it was.
 
It looked like it might have gone off his forearm and it had a little wobble, but they never showed an angle that was definitive.
 
It looked slightly touched by me but NO WAY IN HELL we would ever get that call on review. Tomlin must be thinking that too, no challenges today and at least three plays I would have expected him to.
 
It looked like it in slow motion replay, but no way the ref could see it. Had they reviewed it we might have gotten the call. Honestly, we recovered from that bullshit first PI and had the lead late. JuJu put the ball on the ground and so did Ridley's bum *** when Samuels was gashing them. Tomlin's fake punt was a]dumb as Hell too, but the officials didn't cost us that game.

You can watch it on Youtube. at the 13:50 mark. It is so hard to tell, but the ball does seem to move differently.
 
Irrelevant in what world is that Pass Interference. His lead arm never hooked him and he played the ball clean. On of four ridiculous calls that costed 14 points minimum.

We lost by three they gave then 14 in what world did they not cost us this game the same as the Chargers game?
 
It was tipped and Haden didn’t even touch the WR. Worst officiating I’ve ever seen.

Lame. Just lame
 
Seriously people? I couldn't tell if the ball was tipped or not. Heyward didn't act like he tipped it and looking at the low quality film I can't see a change in direction. I even tried to go frame by frame and I saw nothing.

BTW in case anyone wants to look. Here are the clowns bitching about Haden's pass interference call that wasn't called against them in the tie in week one. He clearly had his hand on Gordon's head. Clearly pass interference but not called. Please stop acting like the Steelers never get calls or always get robbed. It's silly.

Zero percent chance that gets overturned. I mean, I want the ball to be tipped and I can't even make myself definitively see it.

It had a little wobble to begin with, it never hit his arm. Seriously, how is this still being discussed??

Heyward did NOT touch the football

The thing is that Heyward never said anything about it. Most of the time the player will start signaling that it hit his arm. Heyward does nothing. So I assume he didn't think it did.
 
As if dumbass Tomlin could have put together a call or two if it HAD been called a tipped ball.

Tomlin is too ******' dumb yo find his way out the the dark in a tanning booth.
 
Regardless it was a **** PI call. When games are poorly officiated it makes you want to give up on the sport. Why watch something that is rigged.

That would've been game over on that play, I don't know why the booth didn't at least review it.

Just like it was rigged last week when the Steelers were getting all the calls? If it's rigged then why watch? Makes no sense to me. All these guys playing a game that they already know the outcome to. All the fake anger when they lose. Why watch that?

No need to review a play that isn't going to get overturned. The games are too drawn out as it is. Replay should be reserved for coaches challenges or for egregious plays that influence the outcome of a game, such as bad DPI calls that result in 40+ yard penalties.

That would've had a direct result on the game, if it's reviewed upstairs and they determine it was tipped, it's our ball and game over

The ball was tipped, play it in slow motion and you see the hand hits it and the ball then changes direction and nose dives. Unfortunately the NFL's lousy officiating has made these games a crap shoot.
 
After watching the replay of it....you can see Tuitt's right arm grazes the ball and you can see it change as the ball rotation changes.....that is physics and it's obvious that Tuitt did contact that football. Also that was Pass Interference on Haden anyway. Another NFL game decided by poor NFL Officiating! Players and coaches need to start calling out these referee's instead of saying....officiating didn't effect the outcome of the game. In today's game it certainly effected the outcome of this game! Saints were gifted 2 TD's today.

Also why didn't the call come down from upstairs to look at that play to make sure the ball wasn't tipped? They can say "Flow of the Game" blah, blah, blah....but they stopped the game when Ben & AB converted a 4th & 15 for a first down. Why on the Steelers and not the Saints? Both plays inside of 2 minutes.....I just don't understand that!
