David Patten

Saintsfan4ever · 11-05-2007, 03:23 AM

Did you notice that 1st quarter catch by Patten where he broke a tackle and turned it up field for a big gain? ... well, we're lucky the Jags didn't review that play because Patten went down from tripping on his own feet and got up and spiked the ball before he was touched by a Jag. If you'll watch the highlights you'll see what I'm talking about.

I'm not throwing rocks at Patten, he played his butt off, but that was a bonehead mistake that he got away with.

I didn't. I was having a fit over that play. Patten needed to get up and continue running. He wasn't down by contact. I was certain that he had turned the ball over.

I agree that Patten was not down, but I wonder if the refs blew the wistle before he got up and spiked it.

I agree he's a vet he would have got up and gone... there must have been a whistle. I'll have to go back and look at the tape tonight.

He still played a great game... we did get lucky on that call. I'm loving the 3 WR set with Colston, Patten, and Moore.

I agree. It's good to see us have the weapons on the field to put defenses on their heals. When we block, throw, and catch the ball properly, we are very hard to stop. Moore may need to work on his TD dance, however! The only downside of the 3WR set is it makes it harder for Kearney to get in the game.

Speaking of dumb mistakes however, this whole game could have been much closer had we not got some breaks. The Patten play speaks out, but Bush's muffed punt was luckily recovered. The game was very close at that point and would have been a big momentum swing had the Jags recovered. Also, for Brees to have the fumble (almost 2) and for it not to cost us was lucky. We also had challenges go our way (that doesn't happen often!). Throw in some bad punt coverage and another big pass play for a TD against us, then there are reasons to be thanking our lucky stars for the victory.

The Saints earned this victory and I am happy as can be to see them back in contention. They've come very far in the last month and have every reason to be proud of what they've done. They just have to make sure they earn the next few victories like they did this one!

I wish that Henderson would get his act together being he could be a deep threat for the Saints.
Hoping he turns his season around, dame shame he can't catch because the guy has great speed.
Colston, Patton, Moore, Johnson and Miller isn't a bad set of weapons for Brees.
How about the big guy (Billy Miller) running down the field after a short catch?

He had a great game. But yes, that one play was a boneheaded move.

We got a lucky break on that one.
