But this shows Payton's arrogance that can win a game as much as it can lose a game. The end result of this game should only have been a Saints win or a tie game.

he showed full faith in his boy, his kicker, even after a missed chip shot earlier

I won't be upset in putting faith in someone who has now won you 3 straight games

I don't think many here doubt Lutz's abilities, but there was no reason to not take that clock down and kick. This was pissed-off, petty Payton and glad his low-risk gamble paid off.

This is just so stupid. How does that show any more faith in his kicker than kneeling twice and then kicking the field goal. All kneeling twice does is preclude the Bears from being able to win the game (with the exception of a blocked field goal). As the OP said it was arrogant Payton, and it wasn't smart.
