Cameron Jordan has some suggestions for the NFL and how it should handle officiating blunders going forward. The Saints still aren't over it. And as much as some people want them to stop complaining, it is pretty easy to understand why the team and city are not ready to get past the missed pass-interference penalty that should have been called against Rams cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman late in last week's NFC championship game. While Robey-Coleman claims he was told the pass from Drew Brees intended for Tommylee Lewis was tipped, meaning the play could not be called for pass interference but just a helmet-to-helmet penalty like Robey-Coleman was fined for despite not being flagged, most people are still waiting for answers from the NFL. Among those people is Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan. And at Sunday's Pro Bowl in Orlando, Fla. Jordan rocked a T-shirt that addressed the ongoing controversy and provided some suggestions for how the league could handle a situation like this in the future. "Blow Whistles Not Games" is printed on the back of the shirt, just above an illustration of a shrugging official bookended by the phrase, "Make Calls Not Apologies." Jordan is attending the fourth Pro Bowl of his eight-year career. The No. 24 pick from the 2011 draft had 12 sacks and a forced fumble this season. His shirt probably won't inspire commissioner Roger Goodell to offer an official statement on the missed call, but it could be a good design to sell to Saints fans and general antagonists of NFL officiating across the country.<doc-sep>Another shot was taken towards the referees of last week’s NFC Championship Game on Sunday.

Head coach Sean Payton called for more extensive replay in wake of his team effectively being robbed of a trip to the Super Bowl. Out of the seven Saints named to the Pro Bowl, only four chose to play including Jordan.<doc-sep>Saints’ Cameron Jordan sends message to refs with shirt at Pro Bowl We have not seen or heard the last of the New Orleans Saints’ disgust toward the NFL and its referees for what happened in the NFC Championship.

Jordan is letting his shirt do the talking here, but it’s quite clear that he’s still angry over how the Saints were denied a spot in the Super Bowl thanks to an egregious missed call.<doc-sep>
New Orleans Saints player Cameron Jordan wore an outstanding shirt at the Pro Bowl Sunday. Jordan rocked a black shirt that read, “Blow whistles not games Make calls not apologies.” The shirt also featured a ref shrugging at the bottom. .@camjordan94 arrived for the Pro Bowl with a t-shirt that says “Blow whistles not games” and “Make calls not apologies.” pic.twitter.com/4toGxiBnHI — ESPN (@espn) January 27, 2019 This is an obvious attack on the officiating that blew the NFC championship game for the Saints against the Rams. The officiating crew didn’t throw a flag on what was perhaps the most obvious pass interference in the history of football.

There wasn’t a flag thrown on this play. The NFL should be embarrassed. pic.twitter.com/qL2dTyonEb — David Hookstead (@dhookstead) January 20, 2019 I’m sure the league won’t be happy that a player is giving the refs a massive metaphorical middle finger, but he has every right in the world to be upset. Who wouldn’t be if they were in the shoes of the Saints players? The NFL better figure out what to do because a blown call like that can’t ever be allowed to happen again. It just can’t. There might be riots in the street if it does. What an embarrassment for the NFL. Major props to Jordan for not backing down.
