They can have it because that is all anyone will remember about this season.

But if Minnesota win the SB that play will be forever played. I hate it but if Vikings happen to make it to the SB, I will have no choice but to be a Patriot's fan for that day(regurgitating as I type it)

It pains me to say it as well but if it's Pats vs Vikes I'll be rooting for the Pats. Ugh, that hurts just saying it but you're right, if they win the SB that play will be replayed forever.

im rooting for Pats like last year against ATL.

Its because Philly or Minny has no business in the SB and one of them is going to be there.

Several factors came in to play. Luck, Luck, Luck, Duck and Cover Maneuver and Luck. Did I say luck? We were the better team and even in the first half you could see it. Any other team playing that crappy would've been down 35 to 0.

Where was the deep safety, who should have been standing near the Goal Line?

William was the deep safety coming up to make the play. It's back to basic technique, keep your head up to make a tackle, period.

I have no problem with the play call at the end of the game defensively. There where two players in position to make the play and Williams screwed up and prevented Crawley from having a chance at the tackle by taking his legs out. I still wouldn't trade Wiliiams for any other young FS in the league. He has been a beast this year.

How about he just lets him catch the ball and tackles him? I certainly blame him, but don't think he threw the game.

This one is going to burn for awhile. It was just inexperience that caused that mental error. Thats where Vaccaro was missed and in all honesty I was thinking that maybe Bush should have been on the field. Hopefully he is able to recover from this and does not have a sophomore slump because of it.

The way I see it, Williams screwed up. I’ve been *****ing about frikkin shoulder tackles for years. It pisses me off big time to see a defender throw a shoulder tackle without even trying to wrap up the ball carrier.

That said, Williams didn’t single handedly lose this game. The Saints, as a team, had 59 minutes, and 56 seconds of game time to affect the outcome of this game. The offense and defense squandered an entire half dicking around with no offense and no defense. Anybody who blames this game on one man and one play with 4 seconds left on the clock need to go back and rewatch the entire game.
