The officials missed several calls that went in the Saints favor during the Dallas game. It can be argued that those missed calls led to the Saint's victory over Dallas propelling Saints to the NFC championship game.
A team cannot reasonably pick one call and say it cost them the chance to go to Super Bowl.
That's the conundrum, where do you go back to. Do you go back to the missed PI helmet to helmet, or do you go back to the missed facemask on Goff. I'm not saying I agree with the suit, what I'm saying is that now that legal money is involved, people can show they have been monetarily damaged by what appears to be blatant disregarding of the rules, which gives them the standing in court they did not have before. It's a huge headache for the league, and why I think they will ensure the Patriots win the SB to try to make it go away.....
