I think it's more about the fact that people are just ridiculously overreacting (as an 11-2 team no less) when we go down by a score or two. Saying the team sucks, Brees sucks and needs to retire, Kamara sucks, the defense sucks, this team is done, etc. Football is 4 quarters, and a miserable half doesn't necessarily mean the game is lost. We saw it firsthand yesterday.

I think a lot of people also see this as being the closest chance we will get to getting another ring with Brees, and when we stumble, some take it hard.
