Not at all trying to sound cocky, cuz I would admit it if I was, but I was never worried and never felt we would lose. Had the score stayed lopsided going into maybe the middle of the 3rd quarter, I would have figured we were going to lose. But with our offense and knowing how quickly they can score, I never felt like we were out of it. A buddy whos a die-hard Dolphins fan sent me text when the score was 24-3 and I told him....long way to go kid.

Worried, no. It was just hard as hell to watch that first half, or when everytime we got within one score of taking the lead they would answer right back.

I was worried until Brees dove for the TD to end the half, momentum shift from then on.

As soon as we scored going into the half, I was convinced that we were going to win.

With our offense, we're never out of it. I just wish GeauxBob could realize that.

funny thing was I got nervous because of the score being 24-3,but,that sinking gutwrencking feeling was nowhere to be found.Man it felt good not to feel that way even when things look that bad.

I wasn't too worried. I just didn't want the game to get out of hand. I felt confident we could overcome a 3-4 score deficit with a half still to go. Just needed the bleeding to stop so our offense could come back.

Yes.

Not so much because of the score, but because EVERYTHING seemed to be going wrong. That replay "malfunction" was looking like a portent.

But after the first half TD, I knew the Saints could come back because of their big play capability.

Of course, with the Saints I worry until that final gun sounds, and even then I wonder if the NFL will find some way to go back and take it all away...

Not really worried, I thought it was still possible to win the game... but man our offense looked so bad early on, dead in the water, but they just came alive all of a sudden and took the game under control.

Also: a year ago, we lose this game because of no toughness.

I honestly was not worried. I felt we could get it together at some point as long as it was still early..

Oh yes. I think it was 2:00 left in the half, Miami was driving to go up 31-3. I think Shanle? strips Bess? we get the ball and score the TD right before half and thats when it turned.

I was worried. I didn't recognize that team out there. It didn't look like this year's Saints.

I was worried, but I never gave up on them. I kept thinking this team has averaged in the 40's this season, 21 down ain't nothing!

Never worried... honestly. If the phins go up by 24+ I would have been. I always believed that three TD's was in our reach.

Just be glad I switched from sideways on the sofa to upright on the lazyboy just before the first half was over.

Comfy karma proved essential.

I was more worried when Carney missed the extra point then at any other time in the 1st half. Bad flashbacks.
