It has likely been long forgotten...but that pass was a thing of beauty.

THAT is why you pay Brees

None of it matters

He may be a little inconsistent on deep passes, but Brees still has it.

To be honest, Brees was the reason we had a chance to go to the SB. The team is solid, but it was young and banged up.

Thank you, Drew Brees, for your leadership and your gutsy play.

Could have gone down as one of the biggest plays in franchise history

It is beyond criminal how often the defense has let Drew down the past decade

I was so excited because I thought that after being silent all season Snead was going to make the play that extended our season. Boy that didn't turn out to be the case.

If that drive was 2 yards longer, it would have gone down as one of the greatest drives in Saints, and maybe NFL playoff, history.

A record 18 times, Drew Brees has led a Q4 comeback only to have his defense give up the win.

A team just does come back from 17 down against the MN defense, but they did. Kudos to Drew & yes, Sean’s play calls. Gotta play for every second for 60 min.

So you saying that brees and saints should have gone for it on 4th down for the 1st instead of kick the field goal with 25 secs in the 4th is what u saying since it worth earlier in the game? Don't get what trying to say

No one is saying that

Some say we should have tried harder on 3rd and 1 for a first

I wanted the run but I prefer a qb sneak on 3rd a short. We had a massive gain earlier in the game with it

Who cares. What about the int on the post to ginn. That was 6 yds underthrown easy TD. Brady the Goat makes that throw in a dome or out in elements.

Had Williams made that tackle media would have blown up about Brees maybe being the greatest and what a 4th and 10 clutch toss. Instead.........

I thought that would have been a fine choice as well. And why not have a fullback in there to help them get that one yard? I'm not sure Zach Line was in the game at any point.

I was wondering where Zach Line was all day. I even had to look up the injury report to see if there's something I missed. I didn't see anything.

And he scored a touchdown against the Panthers, so it's not like he was rusty or anything. If you feel like Ingram isn't gonna get that yard, but you have to run it anyway, use your fullback in some capacity.

Cowherd is a bit of a tool but he’s right on his take today. Brees was robbed yesterday. The media would be giving him well earned praise non stop for a signature win. 17/22 in the second half. 3 TD 0 INT. 140 passer rating. Clutch as it gets.
