sorry, I am biased.

I would have liked to seen that one live.

My top regular season games attended live:

1. Falcons - Dome Reopening
2. Texans this year - for the magical comeback.
3. Browns '88 - shootout between Bobby Hebert & Bernie Kosar - 2 safeties! (Bruce Clark & Brett Maxie) First time I remember us winning
a season opener.
4. Broncos '88 - Us vs. AFC Champion & Elway. Scary game going into it.
We knocked them snotless (42-3?) and looked Super Bowl bound.
I just remembered that feeling of hope we all had, and the joy driving all the way back to Many, La.

Those were some on the edge of your seats for 60 minutes.

You also have Hakim Dropped the ball.

Oh yeah and that one game I think they called it the Super Bowl.

Someone explain to Euph the difference between the regular season and the playoffs.

I do remember this game, also think it was a home game. I thought he would deploy the same type strategy when we played the BOYS in 09 but we lost that one, so it would have to be and 08 home game I think.

I agree with Mardigras9. You could just feel the change in the air and after that night the worm turned for us.

But back to the topic of Greatest Games... I would say that this one wouldn't even rate in the Top Ten..

New Orleans Saints 2006 Katrina Tribute - YouTube
63 yard field goal by kicker Tom Dempsey (NFL Record) - YouTube
Garrett Hartley OT winning field goal - YouTube

Doesn't matter who they had playing, or not playing. We beat the breaks off them and that's that. No one ever gave us excuses in the past, and still don't now. They (NFL teams), relish any opportunity to do the same to us. They are all professionals, and it goes down as pros vs pros. So who gives a d@mn about how bad they are now.

I could gaurantee you that if Drew were to go down and the Saints lost a game in the same fashion, everyone and their mother would be stating how great the other teams was/is. And how overrated the Saints are/were.

THEY WERE WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE, AND IT WAS NO WAY WE WERE GONNA LET THEM OFF THE HOOK!!!
