for their body of work, but they cost us the GB game more than Hartley.
Sproles catches that sideline pass past the first down marker, and we might score a TD instead of a FG, go for two and go up 35-28.
D Thomas lines up to block the end better, and he doesn't have to hold on the FG attempt, and we go up 30-28.
Not to say we don't lose anyway, but those two plays were excruciating to watch.

Then again, it shouldn't have come down to that.
We score a TD on just one of our FG drives and we possibly win outright.

1-3 after an upset AT Lambeau, and a big Sunday night home game coming up - would have been sweet.

At least we have a chance to start a win streak Sunday night and see Drew break the record, but damn we had that game...

Encouragement and a lotta hope found in that even if it was a loss. It looked a lot more like the golden age Saints we've become accustomed to.

Sometimes the hits or misses come in bunches. The outlook for the remaining season is good if repeating the +2 in turnovers and Brees 3TD/0INT performance the rest of the way

Yes, I think we kick the fieldgoal and it's a done deal.

Not even close.

Hartley is where the blame lies.

This game was a reminder of the old Saints. Just when you get excited and expect a win they blow it. If they keep this up season tickets will open up.
