Thanks! I had all but forgotten about that Sproles return. It sure helped. And he may have been gone if it wasn't for that horsecoller. I'm not sure if that TD would have helped or hurt though. But who cares!

That's a really good point. Don't think it would have been good for us to score so soon, even if it was a TD...

First really good return he had in a long while. I Think a TD would actually have hurt us. This long methodically drive of bleeding the clock was perfect. Remember we hardly had any DBs left.

Could watch this all day. I love seeing us win the ball with authority.

Yeah, so~ much more enjoyable for me retrospectively. Robinson's 2nd and 11 is the game.

Tbh, I hated watching the game. I was just too tense and anxious and it occurred to me watching that it was a really unpleasant experience for me. Just a wuss, I guess...

I hope we can win out so one day I can sit back with some beers and really enjoy the games on replay for a for years.

I love that we get the ball at midfield with almost 5 minutes left and killed every last second off. 34 yards in 4:54. That is clock management.

I was driving back to work and had to listen to the game on the radio.

Driving across western Arkansas on I-40 I found the Saints station on the final drive.

Jim Henderson paused so long after the kick I though Graham had Karney'd it!! I was about to start crying and then Henderson said the kick was good!

Carey Williams was the idiot who said we weren't the better team, right?
