New Orleans Saints turn 50: Seeking your best golden memories

My Golden memory in one play;

2006 Divisional Playoff game. Eagles vs Saints in the Superdome

9:44 left in the 3rd quarter 1st and goal on the Eagles 5 yard line Saints down 21-13

Drew hands off to Deuce Mcallister going right. Deuce is hit hard in the backfield almost immediately but continues his forward progress and disappears into the lines where he was swallowed up by several Eagles and Saints players. There was a momentary pause in his momentum but then the whole line starts to move slowly into the Eagles end zone.

Even though the Saints were still behind, I, and probably most Saints fans, knew the Saints were going to pull it out because they wanted it more.

Oh and winning the Super Bowl a couple years later was pretty cool too.
