Congrats Saints. They were clearly better; they deserved it.

 

I think the two game-changing plays were Garcon's drop on the third series when it looked like the Colts were rolling, and then the onside kick to start the second half. That was really a gutsy call that changed the momentum completely.

 

Garcon's drop was huge. As you said, the Colts were rolling offensively at that point with a FG and a TD on their first two possessions. Their only other drive after that in the first half was the one starting at the two where they tried to run out the clock and/or get the Saints to call the timeout. Their offense was basically off the field for an hour.

Tom Benson secretly wants to put the Lombardi Trophy in his trophy case in Los Angeles.

 

No kidding. Talking about winning the Super Bowl for the city when you tried whatever you could to move the team is slightly obnoxious.

I at least take some joy in Brees having a baby that's ugly as [expletive].

 

Seriously, your posts in this (and many other threads) show what a miserable prick you are.

who bit Brees in the face?

 

He had a huge nasty mole thing when he was at Purdue. I'm guessing the scar is from having it removed.

I was really worried after Garcon's drop. Knew the Colts were going to have to score a lot and keep the Saints' offense off the field. I felt really good about how the offense was playing up to that point; then it seemed like the Saints exclusively had the ball after that. I was expecting a loss after the onside kick and ensuing touchdown though.

 

I am really surprised looking at the box score that the Colts out-gained the Saints by 100 yards, had more first downs, and only lost time of possession by 22 seconds. Did not seem like that at all, outside of the first quarter. (Obviously the pick-6 -- from a Hoosier -- skews those stats.)

 

I don't know if posting is making me feel better or worse.

I am indeed. I am vindictive as hell when things don't go as I wish.
