Yea, write Pete Prisco and let him know about it. Im sure he would love to take that away from us as well. What a douche'

Ha!

That why the Saints were giving up TDs late in games. To allow Sproles to get a chance at the record don't you know. :wink: :mrgreen:

That surprises me. Sproles had some big returns, but he also had several 25 yard returns that gave us the ball at the 18. One area we really improved is holding by the KR team. Very rarely were we pushed back.

However, our defense allowing so many yards created a lot of downed punts inside the 20 and 10, giving the Saints a great deal of stadium to cover.

I thought we were starting way back there so that *Brees could pad that record he doesn't deserve, same as when he took the delay of game against ATL

Tell prisco to come see me
