Darren Shapiro CLEARLy fumbled before he got into the endzone... take away 1 TD..

Colston goes down before he gets in the endzone, clock SHOULD HAVE RAN OUT! they get 5 more seconds because the refs blew the call. (A player cannot advance forward on his own fumble!) That cost us another TD..

Fins on paper should have got destroyed but to think they outplayed the Saints and lost because of the effin REFEREES! How dare they take that win from us! Im sick to my stomach that these so called professionals got away with this tonight! 14 points clearly should never have happened.. Momentum never should have been shifted.

Im lost for words, not on the playcalling or breakdown of our secondary (although G. Wilson needs to be cut) but im disgusted by the playcalling.
 
It's funny how the Dolphins were ready to score a meaningless touchdown with one second left in the game and the zebras call a mysterious motion penalty ending the game. Oh, I forgot to mention that the touchdown would have covered the spread for the Dolphins. Hmmmmmm.

And not only that, there were two saints player on the wrong side of the LOS...
 
Ya and the dolphins first td was basically setup by the mysterious malfunction
if they have to punt there the saints aren't backed up at the 3 td line
and brees doesn't get picked and the dolphins score a td. It works both ways...

Bad calls in favor of the fish:
- 1st down deep in our own territory that eventually led to a TD.

Bad calls in favor of the Saints:
- 5 extra seconds needed to score a TD, ball at the 1/2
- Turn over on a fumble
- A TD that should have been a touchback.


Don't get me wrong, when there are close close calls and the refs screw up, I blame us. We should have done it well enough to leave no doubht.... But the calls did go against us this game. Each one of the plays the refs screwed up were just the straw that broke the camels back after we laid an egg.

You can't blame the refs here guys. 24-3. That's three scores... the refs didn't give them 3 scores and prevent us from making more points, we did the losing ourselves.
 
Every loss is bad, but this one hits HARD.

We outplayed them but the refs outplayed us, IN MIAMI! Seriously?

And get rid of Ginn, I tried to back him up for the longest time, but jesus he sucks. Start Hartline over him, or Bess, at least they catch the ball.
 
Yes the refs were blind, clueless, corrupt or whatever. Still if our Defense and Offense would have shown up for the 2nd half, we wouldn't have had to worry about those calls.
