Suh blocks GW 65 yd FG in final seconds; Dempseys record still stands!!

NFL Game Center: Detroit Lions at Oakland Raiders - 2011 Week 15

Janikowski has been so good for a long time. I would have no problem if he broke Dempseys record.

That record is a bit of an enigma. First, Dempsey played for us, what 2 seasons? Not exactly what you would call an all-time Saint great

Second, we were terrible those years. A VERY small bright spot from dark times.

Third, we have had a ton of success since then. We are no longer defined by a journeyman kicker's FG or Danny Abramowicz running into a sideline camera

Technically the record has already been tied by Jason Elam in 1998 and Janikowski in September of 2011.

u took the words from me halo, seems like its already been done to me even though its a 3 way tye. still cherish the kick in memory from tom. it will be passed i'm sure and janakowski could be the one.

Saints still did it first, and the 60+ FG will always be associated with the New Orleans Saints!!

Agreed , he is overlooked every year.

I was happy about Suh blocking that FG for entirely different reasons.

Go Lions!

We may be playing each other rnd 1 of the playoffs, so here I am Saints fans, ready to make noise on your boards for my team. As for the Saints, good luck these last two weeks guys, team is looking great this year.

Yes the record has been tied but the Dempsey field goal WON THE GAME, the others didn't...to me that makes Dempsey's kick the one that still hasn't been bested

I want Detroit to beat the snot out of Sanfrancisco on Wildcard Weekend.
I want Dallas to beat the snot out of Atlanta on Wildcard Weekend, because I don't want to play Atlanta a third time in one year. Thats pushing our luck.
I want the Saints to beat the snot out of Dallas in the NFC Divisional game in New Orleans. Just because I would just LOVE to see that!
I want Detroit to beat the snot out of Green Bay in the NFC Divisional Game. Just because I would love to see that too.
I want us to beat the snot out of Detroit in the NFCCG in New Orleans.
