Hell of a play on that one. Good decision by Brees to go deep, great catch. Meacham made up for the drop....

This new kickoff rule blows. Touchback fest. Blah. Why even kicknat this point. Just start them at the 20 and be done with it.

 

[vi edit]

Awesome. Go Cobb.

 

[lupi]

yeah new kickoff rule, 1 more touchback in this game than all of last year at lambeau.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

Roman Harper is getting lit up so much that they're going to have to nickname him Roman Candle.

 

[SlitheryDee]

Nice. Sproles for the kick return.

 

[IndyColtsFan]

We have a game.

 

[vi edit]

NBC's production booth SUCKS. Video feed has been horrible and we've got NFL Mexicano getting dubbed over the top.

 

[lupi]

what a punt.

 

[KeithTalent]

Fuck this kickoff rule. Seriously, fuck it.

[SlitheryDee]

Sproles is definitely the guy for the saints so far.

Yes - it's very exciting to watch them kick a ball into the endzone so a single player to catch and do nothing wish.

Ooo -oooo! Did you see that??!! HE TOOK A KNEE!!!!!!

One another note - the saints defense looks horrible (at least my opponent has them in our fantasy league)

[lupi]

wow saints getting spanked now. that cobbs kid now has 2 tds....wonder how many times he was started this weekend.

 

[Balt]

Saints' D has been trying to arm tackle all night. Sloppy.

 

[Deeko]

Hell of a game so far. Its too bad the Saints didn't score before halftime - would have made it that much more interesting.

 

[timosyy]

I don't understand that 4th down call at all....

Kick the field goal, and you have a whole fourth quarter to score a touchdown to take the lead.

Or at least call a better play!

It's Payton. That's how he rolls.

 

[SlowSpyder]

Green Bay is marching down the field after that fourth down stop. I think if Green Bay gets a TD here that will be the game changer. Green Bay has been a step ahead for the entire game, but I think that stop plus a TD will break the Saint's will. GO PACK!

 

[lupi]

holy crap, can't believe it's coming down to this.

 

[lupi]

wow, what a shitty goal line try. should have run the end.

 

[KlokWyze]

wow that was an amazing last few plays....

 

[Balt]

Well the Saints defense got dominated, but going to Green Bay and keeping it that close is not a bad start for New Orleans this season.

 

[Exterous]

good end of the game - glad I stayed up to watch it
