Payton has to go, could've had 100 pts and allowed 10

Okay, this is pretty funny - celebrate tonight, get into the film room on Monday and stay focused...

We're still a game behind Philly in the tournament...

What we learn today?

The Saints were the first team in over sixty years, and in the modern Super Bowl era, to have at least 295 RuYd and 6 RuTD!!!

Still miss Cooks, but that's great perspective, Smash!

And we've got a franchise Left Tackle in the Cooks trade!

WOW, that's all I got after this game, WOW! Pinch me, I must be dreaming. What a recovery from 0-2, now the next 4 will tell the tale. Oh and let's go Dolphins tonight!! lol

One other thing I learned, with all respect to those gentlemen from Dallas and the rest of the talking heads...

Saints don't lose a step on who's running outta the backfield, but they sure seem to go to pieces when they don't have Zeke...

Dirty bird Claiborne looked like the second coming of Lawrence Taylor off the edge. I really think losing Tyron Smith is a bigger loss than Zeke. That backup had no chance ... I really felt bad for him. Wait, no I didn't

Yeah, Claiborne should have his next FA marketing footage now...
