Tempers flared during today’s NFC championship game between the New Orleans Saints and Los Angeles Rams at the Super Dome after a controversial non-call on a potential pass interference penalty and head-to-head hit by L.A. defensive back Nickell Robey-Coleman, who slammed into Saints pass receiver Tommylee Lewis on a crucial third-down play. The ref’s decision not to drop a penalty flag on the play cost New Orleans a chance at victory in a game that ultimately went into overtime with the Rams winning 26-23 to meet the New England Patriots in Atlanta for the Super Bowl on February 3.
