Bucs vs Saints

[Mik]

Saints are doing pretty well this far.

[Jolly]

Should have a TD on that last drive. As usual this year, they shot themselves in the foot.

Peyton would have murdered someone in the locker room for that.

[Mik]

Still, I’m glad to see Andy doing ok. U

[Mik]

You cannot leave Brady time when one TD wins it.

[Jolly]

One of the biggest plays of the game?

Andy taking a sack he should never have taken, resulting in a ten yard loss and putting the Saints in third and long. Even then, on the next play he threw a good ball and Hill didn't hold on. One first down might have won that game.

The Saints have a decent defense and caused two turnovers tonight that only resulted in 6 points. The Saints offense is atrocious.

Wow.

You know I'm happy, but boy, that ending seems unfair. The Saints did their thing to win that game and would've if it weren't for that @!!#!@ Brady, so no snark, I feel the Saints' pain.

At his presser, he said "Just like we drew it up," causing the reporters to laugh. I don't know what he meant by that, but anyway, I'm as close as I can get to actually regretting my Bucs' win. Not actually regretting it, you understand, I'm not crazy, but this is not an overly joyful win for me.

Sorry, Jolly. Sort of.

GO BUCS.

[Jolly]

Enjoy the win.

The difference between a good QB and a great QB, is that a great QB can sometimes elevate an entire team. Last night, you saw that in the 4th quarter.

[Mik]

You pegged the two key plays. That last pass was perfect. No reason he should not have held on to it.

And one first down would have done it.

In an on-field interview, Brady mentions it was his daughter's birthday (her tenth). He told her they were playing the Saints and she said, "Oh no, Daddy!"

I wonder how it feels to be Tom Brady and your own daughter fears for your game fate.

The Saints knew what could happen when they agreed to play against TB.

That was the first mistake.

Taysom is not really a tight end, although he does play that position a good bit. On that play, he got lit up pretty well by two defenders. Those seam routes into coverage have long been a Saints favorite, but it takes a big body to absorb the hit you know is coming.
