That was the game.

148? lol, I know what you meant, fat-fingered the “2” huh? lol and yes, it was a huge reason the Saints defense remained on the field as long as they did. Five first downs from the penalties was painful to watch. I still believe that Waller imposing his will had a demoralizing affect that the Saints couldn’t bounce back from. There are games within the games. The numbers/stats game, the physical game, the mental game, etc... Waller dominated the field, that hurt. Alot.
