Defensive 2 Point Conversion

Heard on the radio today that the Saints are the only NFL team to be involved in all three instances of a defensive 2 point conversion in NFL history.

I tried to look them up.

Pretty crazy that the Saints are THE ONLY team that's involved in all three times that it happened, two of those instances against the Panties, the other the Broncos.

Eh, I think there was one with KC returning the 2 point conversion on the Falcons.

Yep, Saints Rookie Stephone Anthony scored the NFL's first 2 pt play...

He went from All-Rookie at the MIKE, to can't learn the playbook at OLB...

That Behind-The-Scenes story needs to come out...

Announcers said there have been 7 since rule was implemented. But again they were wrong a lot last night.

KC vs Atlanta 2 point conversion returned for TD - YouTube
Eric Berry became the first player to return a intercepted pass for 2 pts.
So Drew is off the hook. By the way, that pass didn’t count towards Drew’s INT total. Didn’t know that.

The Falcons was much more of an epic fail . They were ahead and it cost them the game. That's just funny as hell.

MAYBE FOR MIAMI, AS A SAINT HE HAD 82 CAREER TACKLES, 21 AS A DOLPHIN, WHICH INCLUDES THE WHOPPING 6 HE'S HAD THIS YEAR.
