Sean Payton Already Talked to League Office About Refs: 'They Blew the Call'

On their final drive in regulation, the Saints were the victims of an unconscionable missed call; Tommylee Lewis was blatantly interfered with by Nickell Robey-Coleman, and it went uncalled. Sean Payton told reporters that he has already spoken to the league office about it:

"Just getting off the phone with the league office ... they blew the call."

This is one of those moments in sports that Saints fans will never be able to get over, even if there is exultant winning that comes after it. It will be a long wait until September.
