Do we beat them? It was obvious Drew was done at that point

No, but we beat them if Jared Cook had caught COVID before the game

Jamies wasn’t eating a W in a playoff game against the GOAT.

Saint's wouldn't have won if Jamie was playing for the Bucs. Defense was good but not great which is required when your aging QB is...well, aging.

He did play. One play from what I recall.

The Saints would've won the game if Cook doesn't fumble the ball late in the third. It's that simple. Brees had two ints after that when he could've handed the ball off on 1st and second, and thrown for short yardage on 3rd down. The Bucs defense looked dejected and beat on the drive that Cook fumbled. It was over.

It was over when Brees threw his last pic on the day. Cook’s fumble was a momentum changer but the Saints were still in it. Wanna be in the GOAT conversation? Lead your team down the field and take the fricking lead.

People seem to forget Cook fumbled at TB 47. There was by no means a guaranteed shot the Saints were going to march 47 yards and score a TD. And it’s not like the Saint’s offense was moving at will. Their only proof that was going to happen was “momentum”.

But plenty of times through all sports, teams that have had the momentum late in games many times still lose. The Saints themselves in that game, had momentum going into that first drive after Harris’s PR and the ensuing penalty set up a great field position. But they came away with a FG.

Marcus Williams’s missed tackles against the Vikings was an example of a play, that if had gone correctly, the Saints were guaranteed to win. People are putting that Cooks fumble on the same level but it’s not. Cooks had a shitty game, and that was costly TO, but there were other issues too.

Brees could never hold a candle to Brady pertaining to this.

Brady just turns it on when January rolls around.

Brees always has that deer in the headlights look and no killer instinct...hence an opportunity to put the Rams and TB away early in these last playoff games.

If James was playing the whole year we wouldn't be have been in the playoffs for him to lose to the GOAT

Yes they are

Are you telling me people aren’t saying if Cooks doesn’t fumble, the Saints would’ve won?

There’s a large leap from saying that to saying it’s as bad as the Marcus Williams play.
The odds of winning shifted greatly on that play.

I don’t understand how “high and tight, 5 points of contact” isn’t an automatic instinct for a professional football player.

Ben McDonald would call that a TNT - takes no talent

People are saying the impact is the same. Same way that people say that if Williams’s doesn’t miss the tackle, the Saints win. They’re also saying if Cooks’s doesn’t fumble, the Saints win.

I’m not disagreeing. I’m saying it’s not a sure thing, and so are you apparently. But that’s not the only thing people are saying. So how about you go after the numerous posters that are acting like they know for a fact that if he doesn’t fumble, the Saints win?
