How many times?

xan · 10-25-2009, 11:26 PM

How many times has the Saints won when (individually, not altogether):

They threw 3 interceptions
They turned the ball over 4 times
They turned the ball over 3 times in own red zone for 3 tds
They allowed over 130 yards rushing and 4 rushing tds
They trailed by 21 points

Any history/statistic gurus out there?

Not just the Saints, but I would say in NFL history very few teams have come back from those odds to win a game.

According to Pat Yasinkas, on #5 (trailing by 21 and winning)

On December 20, 1987 vs Chargers (3-24, 41-24 final) the Saints were the last NFL club to win after trailing by 21. Before that, did the Saints win like that?

No other info on the other criteria.

This win was MORE impressive than the Giants win for me.
