NEW ORLEANS (WWL.com) -- New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees made his first public statement Monday on the "No-call in Nola," more than one week after the controversial decision not to call pass interference on the Los Angeles Rams likely cost the Saints a berth in the Super Bowl.
Brees praised the connection from the team to the Who Dat Nation and vowed to use the disappointment of the loss to the Rams as motivation. The future Hall of Fame quarterback posted a long message on Instagram.
"I've spent this last week navigating the heartache and disappointment from the game. Some things within our control and some outside our control that caused us to fall short," Brees wrote. "Everything that has ever happened to this community, we have bonded together, galvanized and leaped forward every time. The frustration we feel now can be channeled in the same way."
