re: The Better Team Lost

On the Cowherd show... Trent Dilfer argued the "Better team lost" statement by saying that if the Vikings were the better team they would do the intangibles that make a great team. The Saints showed that they can do the intangibles, and have the composure of a great team. YES, the Saints offense did not produce like a #1 ranked offense; but they still scored 31 points. YES, the Vikings Offense racked up yards, but the had 5 turnovers and could have had at 3-4 more if the Saints recovered. The Saints did enough to win. When the Saints are healthy, like last night, the Saints are undeafeated this season. Who is the better team? I think the Saints showed that they fear no team, and thrive on pressure. WHODAT!!

THat's well put by dilfer. The "better team" qb threw for 2 picks, should have been a third to greer off of his chest, fumbled a miss handoff. Made critical errors, got his head bashed in all night. Couldn't run the ball in the most critical part of the entire game to get 5 more yards. Made stupid fricking 12th man mistake, put the ball on the ground all game. HOw's that make you better. Saints D played opportunistic and our O was efficient and didn't have its best showing yet still won.
