Tight ends Coby Fleener, Josh Hill play key roles in Saints comeback

I don't hate Fleener. He's a slightly above average pass catching TE that has been given way too much money for his production. Over the years of watching the Saints, I know that Brees loves to throw to his TEs... and I just don't think that Fleener is up to the Saints' standards at TE as the position is a very, very important one for how Payton and Brees like to run the offense.

Wasn't that throw to the TE a bunch part of the game plan called the seven and nine?
