I had the same feeling about the calls having a big effect on the Saints, but at one point it was 16-14. If the Saints win the game from that point on they are probably in the Super Bowl, but the Bears played a little bit better (errr... 23-0 better). It actually reminded me of the last Super Bowl. Several important and marginal calls going against the losing team, but none of them were blatantly bad. I'm a Steeler fan and I rooted for the Saints, so now I can see both sides of the coin.
Now that the Saints lost at least I know who I'm going to be rooting for in two weeks. I wouldn't mind the Bears winning, but I always have a soft spot for guys that get the "can't win the big one" label so go Manning/Dungy/Colts.
