Rams vs Saints

Rams fans are so upset with the NFL's decision to have referee Bill Vinovich officiate Sunday's NFC Championship that they've actually started a petition to have him removed from the game.

The reason Rams fans are mad is that because they seem to lose every single game that Vinovich is involved in. As we noted earlier this week when the officiating teams were announced, Vinovich has been the ref for eight games involving the Rams since 2012 and they've gone 0-8 in those games. Not only that, but the Rams have been hit with more penalty yardage in seven of the eight games (In the other game, they ended up with the same amount of penalty yardage).

During the 2018 season, the Rams went 0-2 with Vinovich as their referee and that includes their first game with the Saints. During the Saints' 45-35 win over the Rams back in Week 9, there were six accepted penalties in the game with four going against Los Angeles and two going against New Orleans.

Of course, there is a small silver lining in all of this for the Rams. If they beat the Saints on Sunday, the referee for Super Bowl LIII is John Parry and the Rams have never lost a game that he's officiated (7-0).

Unless you wear a striped shirt no, you didn't, neither did your team.

CBS broadcast team pilloried the refs and flat out said the Rams don't deserve to go to the championship. Get used to hearing it.

The Rams showed pluck but the game was over if that call is made. Over.

What was the score...

Were we down 13?

Did we stop the run?

Did we shut down Thomas?

Did Goff make plays when it mattered most?

PI or not PI, we did enough to win and thanks to the blown call, we were given a better opportunity to do so.
