New Orleans Saints overcome several roadblocks in 34-31 thriller over Panthers

Once again, the New Orleans Saints couldn’t get any breaks from NFL officials, but just like against the Texans at home in the season opener, quarterback Drew Brees put kicker Wil Lutz in position to win with seconds remaining.

New Orleans got the victory, but the game being poorly officiated is mind-boggling, even for Saints fans.

The outrage began when Saints tight end Jared Cook caught a pass from Brees and strolled down the field for a huge gain, only for the referees to call offensive pass interference and cancel the play.
