- Thomas is a beast. Pay him before it has a chance to get messy.
- T. Hill is a difference maker. His arm strength is much better than Brees.
- When Lattimore is motivated, he's as good as it gets.
- Davis was a difference making signing.
- Too many penalties.
- Horrible play/angle by Williams on the Eagles TD.

- The Rams are better in key area's since the first game.

True however the Rams got absolutely ROASTED on the back end by Dak Bortles on Saturday & Talib should scare no one. If they attempt to stack the box like they did against the Cows, #9 is gonna carve that secondary up.

The calls appeared very one sided that is for certain.

After every Saints big play, I would often look to confirm no flags were thrown before giving the wife a high five .

I did the exact same thing in the stands! LOL!

Of course, it was also hugs all around with the wife, son and other cool fans in the area.

They held us the whole first quarter. It was rediculous. Looked like the league didn’t want a blowout win.

There are even posts about "The Drive" on non-sports web sites such as Deadspin. Here are a couple of comments to the article...

It's surreal watching an opposing QB line up at 2nd and 20 and feeling like he has the advantage.

Just to grant some clarity to what the spectrum is here: If an offense has a drive where it start on their own one-yard line and get a first down by < a yard on third down every single time (the ~ 11-yard line, then the ~ 21-yard line, etc.) until they are inside the opponent’s 10-yard line, and then don’t score until third & goal there as well, that would only add up to 30 plays. So yeah, lot of plays!
