Thumbs up Goal line magic

NEW ORLEANS — It would not be an unfair assessment to say the New Orleans Saints have struggled defensively in 2012.

The Saints have given up the most yards and points of any team this season. But something special happens when the unit is called upon at the goal line.

"When we get down there, it's pride," said Saints linebacker Curtis Lofton. "It's man to man. We have to get a stop. We have to hold them to a field goal."

Or hold them to nothing, as the defense did Sunday late in the fourth quarter of the Saints' 31-27 victory over the previously unbeaten Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons had three tries after the two-minute warning to punch it in from the one-yard line.

Re: Goal line magic

According to that article and Lofton/Greer seems like the players are truly beginning to buy into Spags system. That can only be good news...

Re: Goal line magic

I will be the lone ranger....

Allow less than 350 yards in 1 game and Ill start buying in... Ok I wont shoot for the stars... get under 400 since 421 is the best you have done so far.
