Is this the best game of the week or is that Memphis v Gamblers?

This could be a rumble. Is NOLA able to get back on track? we shall see.

Very Good game so far - final seconds of 1st half NOLA driving.

Good crowd...

Pereira douches on 2 big calls at end... I think he reversed the second to make up for the 1st... McBLT gets a long pass anyway but Birm holds on.... yet NOLA covers my in game +5.5 and the Over 39.5 covers.... Happy Days! :mrgreen:

I'm really starting to get replay fatigue.

I hate to sound ancient, but the more I watch football nowadays, the less I wish replay was involved.

Too many bang-bang plays that look one way to the naked eye, but then get changed because a super-duper-slow-motion replay suggests otherwise.

I feel like half the big plays don't stay the way they appear at first, meanwhile the other big plays are dependent on subjective penalty calls.

You can probably put together an alternate universe highlight game of all the plays that didn't really count.

Welcome to the party pal. I was against instant replay since they drop the 3 challenges a game in NFL. No need to replay every play - 3 challenges and that's it.
