Was when our brilliant coach decided to call timeout as the Vikings were content to just run the clock out. How many people were screaming at there tv's, besides me, "Don't call timeout you f ing moron!?" Was there any doubt what was about to happen?

Yes we probably still lose, BUT my God that was insufferable and beyond frustrating.

i think it was a wash once that tipped pass by Cam Jordan fell to the ground after Cam and Klein collided.

i'm not saying we would have won but it certainly summed up the night IMO.

I mean... he was trying to get a stop and save the offense as much time as possible for Brees and crew to try to do something before halftime

the 3rd timeout was before 3rd & 1 at the MIN 14 with 1:23 left... THE MINNESOTA 14

stop them there and Drew has about 40 seconds to get about 30 yards (if that) to get into Lutz's range to try a FG... which if converted would've made it 10-9

I'm ok with the timeouts

Strief getting hurt seemed to take everything left out of the offense b/c it just seemed like they played scared with the makeshift o-line and came out of the shell after the game was lost

When you have Drew that's not a bad call. His mistake was thinking this defense was better. Clearly coverage isn't.
