Steelers fan here and I did not cry when they took a TD away last year against the Patriots on a clear catch that was ruled incomplete. Have enough sports sense to see Tomlin and Steelers offense blew many opportunities much like the Saints that made one play stand out that should not have.
The entire game must be taken into account as it all matters and plays a role in the outcome.

The Jessie James play vs the Pats WAS NOT A CATCH, period. Going by the rules in place at the time, the refs made the correct call. It wasn't a catch so there was no reason for you to cry about it.
This wasn't just a bad call....it was the worst of all time, at the worst possible time. This is the Jorge Orta safe call in the '85 World Series.
The game would have effectively been over if the ref throws the flag. Saints take three knees and kick a field goal with about a 97% chance of making it. Then they kick off with something like 15secs to play.
It was simply a massive and egregious error that can't be fixed. Fire the whole crew....this CANNOT happen on that big of a stage. This wasn't week 3 vs Tampa Bay; this was the NFC Champ game for crying out loud.
I'm a Steelers fan by the way
