Saints Win... Oldest Play in the Book....

I really think that part of the reason it worked is because of Sean's reputation... at least a few people on the Bengals had to be thinking "this mother****er may just be crazy enough to go for it." If it was Andy Reid or somebody, it would be a different story.

lol, and the cool thing about bluffing in poker or football and winning, is the next coach will be even more confused, giving you a better chance for success. Thinking " Why is fricken Payton doing that play again!! He knows that I know what hes knows,,,, errr or do I?".

The next DC will probably tell everyone to play the ball on 4th, but that the DL should freeze and dont try to get a jump on the ball. Giving us a jump on the defense for a 1-2 yard 4th down run play.

Brilliant.

I seem to be the odd man out. I was hoping for Ivory to get the ball.

I was really thinking we might go for it... but if I can remember, I was thinking pass...

I remember thinking .....oh God no! The only thing about these little trick plays is that eventually you can wind up tricking yourself.

It was totally the right call to line up on 4th and 2 and take delay of game, the way that Hartley has problems kicking close ones.

What a nice gift, thanks Bungles!
