New Orleans Saints Week 17 Recap: Keep Up or Else…

Quote:

The moral of the story for the Carolina Panthers, and any other team that might have to face this New Orleans Saints team in the upcoming playoffs, is to keep up with the pace set by Drew Brees and his offense or else you’ll be doomed to see your hopes dashed in an awful big hurry.

The Panthers were entertaining the hopes of payback for what New Orleans did to them in their own house in week 5 and of ending their season on a positive note by potentially upsetting the NFC South Division Champion Saints in the Superdome. They claim that they were disrespected by the way the Saints‘ defense played them in their own stadium earlier in this season, as highlighted by the late hit from Roman Harper on Steve Smith after a touchdown catch in the endzone.

The second meeting between the Carolina Panthers and the New Orleans Saints this season might have seemed like a no-brainer to a lot of die-hard Saints fans and analysts alike, but Cam Newton‘s team was mighty confident coming in, as evidenced by the closeness of score during the first half of the game.

Though this matchup wound up looking like a total drumming, with the New Orleans Saints winning it by the final score of 45-17, you couldn’t exactly see it coming at halftime with only a 24-17 Saints lead.

Don't mention it. It's just what I do...

I hope SP is kicking the team in the buttocks & not letting them get stars in their eyes. Dont listen to the hype - just PLAY TO WIN THE GAME!!

:bng:

Great read as always; D!

No one is talking about our D, right now they are under the radar but are really starting to look good.

I just hope GW can get the D to play the same for four quarters like they played in the second half of the Carolina game.

First I heard of the least fumble record. Six on the season. Wow!
