Don't know that their strategy completely backfired as the Saints got comfortable, pull back on Brees and passing game...

Carolina must have watched film on that Week 14 loss to Atlanta - same script, damned if lightning didn't strike twice - Brees choked...

We're fortunate to escape with a win after giving Carolina another chance - that schitte won't get it moving forward...

I'd like to think I'd like our defense's matchup better this time with Minnesota with the rookies now seasoned, Crawley all in place...

But we're going to need a minimum of 24 points and Brees has got to cease this recent trend at the end of games...
