Right. The confetti starting dropping on the field and the receiver had rolled into the end zone and was trying to say he made it and the Rams were all charging the ref saying he was down and you figured there'd at least be a replay or something but it was just over. NFL films has a video of Coach Vermeil on the sideline as that play happened just ripping his headset off and yelling "That's it, we won the game!" and charging onto the field. The way he said it sounded like he was trying to convince himself it was really over.
