Yeah, they were both brutal. Our defense is responsible for arguably the 2 worst defensive possessions in NFL postseason history. This one is tough because at least back then Drew was 32. We have a lot of good, young players but a QB with probably 1-2 years left before we need to start over at the most important position. With a window this small, this loss will go down as the worst one in franchise history.

Gonna be the longest off season in team history.

Re: Saints at Vikings Divisional Game Day Thread
 

Maybe, but I'm excited. We're going to be back with another good draft, health, and a good FA move or two. Bring on training camp!

I am proud of this team and what they accomplished but there is no getting over how much this one stings. we were the better team tonight and we had the win. It is so hard to get to the super bowl, never know what next year brings. This stings...stings bad. We had a shot to go to another SB. I hope williams gets over this because he is going to be a good player

Re: Saints at Vikings Divisional Game Day Thread
 

Here’s the thing... Williams was trying to avoid getting there too early and being flagged for PI. Don’t blame Williams, blame how stupid the rules are now that a safety can’t even hit a damn WR and they have to purposely whiff on a tackle to avoid the flag.

Well, just dang.......................:bang:

Still, 11-5 and a post season win at home in the Super Dome ain't bad. It's a move in the right direction .

All he had to do was wait for Diggs to catch the ball and grab him, he just dived through mid air. No excuse for it, he messed up and lost us the game.

Re: Saints at Vikings Divisional Game Day Thread
 

As bad as the refs were all game, I doubt they would of thrown a flag there. Heck, even if he was afraid of a targeting flag it would of only been 15 yards and they would of been right around mid field with 4 seconds left. Can't be afraid to make a play there.

With a stopped clock!

Tackle the WR and the clock runs out before they can kick the FG!

Re: Saints at Vikings Divisional Game Day Thread
 

I agree, even if Diggs makes the catch; wrap up and drive him backwards. Even if he goes out of bounds the clock would still keep running and game was over.
