1st and goal 1:43 left

Run the ball three times
Run out clock

Get td running
Or take the field goal

Payton is too "put the dagger in" greedy instead of smart

You’ve said it all.

The refs beat us. Terrible throw by Brees but the refs killed us.

0 points off of 3 INT’s killed us. We could’ve had a foot on their throat before the 4th quarter even started.

But we blew it at the end when it was well in our grasp

Should have seen this coming, Payton refused to run the ball for much of the second half.

I hated the call from Payton - that pass was designed for Jimmy Graham to the tight end. Hill is NO Jimmy Graham. He's supposed to go up and wrestle for the pass. Either it's a PI or a catch.

Gotta get inside of the defender and yes. If Hill cant catch it he should take Jones head off. Take the penalty. Kick the field goal. Deion Jones was everywhere. I dont think he started until his senior year and he was never a standout at LSU. Jesuit LB, LSU LB. He should be a Saint. Could we use a great cover 4.3 40 LB? He put Kmara out the game and caught the winning interception. Give him the game ball and well see him in two weeks in the dome.

I don't agree with this thinking at all. We're on a short week, our defense is gassed, we had a ton of injuries and we have a HoF QB. Throwing the ball was the absolute right thing. Drew just made a terrible decision throwing a jump ball to Hill. If you want to criticize SP, he deserves to be crushed for not having a plan B once Kamara went down.

I agree. Both RBs were injured so he let the future Hall of Famer take the reins. Terrible pass, though. That should’ve been a corner fade...
