Re: What if Tommy Lee had flopped?

I thought about this but he was never going to call anything. RS he probably calls it.

He wanted nothing to do with being stamped as the guy that ruined it.

I don't even blame him to be honest. Should have never been in that situation. I blame the NFL for not factoring in human emotions in the second highest stakes game of the season.

Not trying to bash the guy, but TLL shouldn't have been an option in that crucial moment. He's one of the least sure handed players on offense. Small guy with tiny hands.

I wish him all the best in ever facet of life, but not with the Saints.

One thing I’d like to add about TLL, the guy has value. I think he’s one of the best, if the the best guy we’ve had at fielding punts. Just as long as he catches it and not try to return it. When he tries to return punts, he scares me half to death. Just fair catch it and have a seat. There was a game this season which I can’t remember where the announcer commented on how Tommy fielded a punt and caught it with all hands. It was pretty nerve wrecking but he caught it with ease.

Keep this in mind.... If he'd taken a flop, they might very likely have called in from upstairs and taken him out of the game for the head-to-head hit, and potentially benched him. Remember in the playoffs in 2013 the NFL league officials in the booth called down from upstairs late in the game, and took out Keenan Lewis, took away his helmet and made him sit.

Bad things happen when Tommy Lee Lewis is on the active roster.

Better play call would have won us the game, refs obviously messed up but we had a ton of chances to go 10 points up and Brees pretty much squandered all of them.

Neymar is still one of greatest players on the planet (also my son's favorite) but he "flops" better than most.
