This has been a problem all season.

I'm staring at the KoolAde, not ready to drink.

No, you're absolutely correct. All this BS from Roddy's mouth about them having a chance at the end.... the problem is the Saints had ample opportunity to put that game away, as with several other games this season, and failed to do so.

ALL they have to do is in the 2nd half, run clock, keep drives moving and score some points.

Inability to put nails in the coffin has cost us BIG TIME this year - GB, KC, Carolina games come to mind immediately.

We never had the panthers in the box to nail it shut.

Turk McBride had a decent game, and was getting good push on many snaps, IMO.

Greer was getting pushed around quite a bit. He's a small guy and it doesn't take much to knock him off coverage. It's not legal but it is effective and the refs either don't catch it or choose to ignore it. Both Julio and Roddy are masters at it.

I enjoyed every second of it !

Greer impressed me a lot against the Falcons. All of them did actually with the exception of Roman Harper. Not sure what has happened to this guy but he has failed to make big defensive plays this year when given the opportunity. I will say that he was better last game than in previous games.
