that was a great punt from Morstead, but that killed us when the player who downed it was also touching the endzone marker

Washington does nothing for us on offense. Kamara shouldn’t be returning punts.

Time to call up Boston Scott, CSP. Beyond time. Do It!

It was a close play definitely. Hindsight I wish a saints player had been on the other side of the ball in case it bounced fast. There was plenty of time to do so

I'm not a fan of how greedy players are when trying to down the ball at the 1 yard line. Down the ball at the 2 or 3 yard line, an extra yard or 2 isn't worth the risk of a potential touchback.

the ball didnt come close, it was his other hand that went forward.

Stupid. Stupid.

You get paid a NFL salary to make the play at the 1 yard line if you can. That was poor execution that rarely happen. Another example of misfortune hitting the saints last night.

I know, that's what I'm saying. If you down the ball at the 2 or 3, you will not have to worry about your body or the ball touching the goal line 99.99% of the time.

well he could've gotten to the 1 yard line without having to worry about to worry about his body going over the endzone marker

Of course. I was just saying the 2 or 3 yard line to get my point across. So many players try to down the ball inside the 1, which is such an unnecessary risk if it can easily be downed at the 2.
