I see 0-2.Huh?4/5 for 51 yards...off to a good start!
Whoops...going back and forth between several games and I had a brain cramp for a minuteI see 0-2.Huh?4/5 for 51 yards...off to a good start!
One thing in his favor though is the score. Since Carolina scored back to back TDs there will be minimal running from this point on for the Saints. Still doubtful, but losing big was the only way it COULD happen and that indeed is the scenario for the second half.Looks like 137 in the first half; needs 265 in the second half. Won't happen. Carolina's going to keep pounding the ball, and NO's defense isn't good enough to get them off the field.
They are only down by 13 with an entire half to play. It's probably too soon to assume they will abandon the run.One thing in his favor though is the score.

Poor punt by Carolina is going to kill his chances.Suddenly it looks doable. I hope he gets it. Brees is a guy worth rooting for.
If they giveaway a holding penalty or a sack he could still do it on this drive.He won't get it on this drive.
Or not. Obviously they need the ball agian now.If they giveaway a holding penalty or a sack he could still do it on this drive.He won't get it on this drive.
Hahaha jerkoffs went for the record rather than the win and didn't get it.
totally disagree. Moore was trailing to get the pitch after the catch. They could have thrown short for the record, but they were going for the win.Hahaha jerkoffs went for the record rather than the win and didn't get it.

Haha, don't be naive. I don't blame them, if I were anything but a Marino fan I would have been rooting for them to go for the record to, especially with the Saints already being out of contention. Let's be realistic here, no one in the NFL runs the pitch stuff unless they're way too far away from the endzone to throw a hail marry, because that pitch stuff never works in the NFL. That's a play you run from your own 15 yard line. The Panthers had just kicked the ball out of bounds, so they were close enough for Brees to get it there.They were going for the record, with an outside shot of winning the game as a nice little bonus. I would bet any amount of money that if Brees wasn't going for the record they would have thrown a hail marry there.totally disagree. Moore was trailing to get the pitch after the catch.

They were attempting to go deep enough to get a chance at a score.
Brees is as accurate as they get, but he's not a big-armed QB. He wasn't going to throw that ball 65 yards downfield with just about every DB in the end zone. He threw a ball that he had a good chance of completing that also offered a decent shot at some yards. If he and Payton were only interested in going after the record, there were better options out there for them.They were going for the record, with an outside shot of winning the game as a nice little bonus.

Like I said, they were going for the record with a shot at winning the game too, but I guarantee they did not consider that play the best they had available for a chance to win it (hail marry is that play).Brees can throw the ball 60-65 yards. He doesn't zip the ball around on a line all the time because he's short, but he has an NFL arm and then some.Brees is as accurate as they get, but he's not a big-armed QB.

Okay, rather than just discount your remarks as being idiotic, I'll give you the opportunity to defend yourself by providing a link showing him chucking the ball 60+ yards down the field for a completion or one to a statement by a legitimate NFL scouting report that he has one of the stronger arms in the game.Like I said, they were going for the record with a shot at winning the game too, but I guarantee they did not consider that play the best they had available for a chance to win it (hail marry is that play).Brees can throw the ball 60-65 yards.
