Burress is the new Randy Moss. Amazing talent and big play ability, but his attitude can cost him sometimes.

 

[EdwardCat]

Another mediocre game on the way for Brees? I hope not.

 

[EdwardCat]

2 drops so far by Saints receivers.

 

[videoguy505]

That last drop was after a pretty solid hit at the moment the ball got there by Demps.

 

[videoguy505]

Bizarre play--Brees tries a shovel pass to Bush, who isn't paying attention. Luckily it merely falls incomplete. Long FG missed and the Giants take over near midfield.

 

[EdwardCat]

2/7 for 11 yards. Brees is in for another Washington-type game. He really needs Horn back in there.

Cundiff has never had that range..Dumb call by Payton..

 

[GroveDiesel]

at Burress being upset because "a WR of his calibre" didn't make the Pro Bowl.

 

[EdwardCat]

Did Brees and Grossman switch?

 

[videoguy505]

Brees' pass on 3rd and 8 is tipped straight up a the line. Brees 3 of 10 for 13 yards.

Saints drives in the first quarter: 3 & out (punt), 4 plays for 4 yards (FG), 6 for 11 yards (missed FG), 3 & out (punt).

 

[2banalias]

anyone know why John Carney wasn't the field goal kicker on that missed field goal?

 

[EdwardCat]

This is just disgusting. NO receivers look HORRIBLE! Brees looks to have lost all his confidence. They better turn it around and quick.

 

[videoguy505]

4th drop by the Saints WRs.

Brees finds Colston for a 1st down on 3rd & 10, making a 23 yard pass.

Devery drops an easy long TD pass. Rediculous...

 

[EdwardCat]

3 pass tips on top of the 4 dropped passes.

 

[videoguy505]

Alert the media, 2 consecutive completions.

3rd pass is tipped at the line, however.

 

[videoguy505]

Reggie Bush pulls in another one, but the Giants will challenge control as he bobbled before he got both feet in bounds. Going by how the refs calls go sometimes, this could be 50-50.

 

[EdwardCat]

It appears Bush does not have possession of that before going out of bounds.

 

[videoguy505]

No catch, the Saints go for it on 4th and 2 from the Giants 32 and the wind at their backs. Brees finds Copper for the 1st down.

 

[videoguy505]

The Saints had called an earlier time out on this drive to preserve the wind advantage should they need to go for a Figgie. Going for it on 4th and 2 ended the quarter, so it'll be interesting to see how that affects things for the rest of the drive. If they fail to gain another 10 yards here, the field goal won't be a chip shot.

 

[videoguy505]

... nevermind, as Bush makes a nice run for 13 and they're at the Giants 13 with another 1st down.

 

[EdwardCat]

Brees would be well over 100 yards and a TD if not for the 5 dropped passes.

 

[videoguy505]

Going for a pass on 3rd and 5 from the 8, Brees rifles a quick pass to Colston, who just has to take one step for the first down. Unfortunately, another dropped pass and they settle for the field goal.

 

[Billy Bats]

Looks like the NO wr's receieved a nice christmas bonus from the NFL league offices in NY.

 

[scott72]

Saints should be dominating this game. Drops are absolutely killing them...

 

[videoguy505]

The Giants have yet to start a play in Saints territory. They only time they crossed midfield was on the 55 yard pass play to Burress that started from the Giants side of the field.

Nice punt by Feagles and Bush is driven down an instant after making the catch. The Saints will start from their own 11.

 

[videoguy505]

Bush for 17 on a nice run on 1st down.

 

[EdwardCat]

HAHAHA....pass drop 6.

 

[videoguy505]

Another quick screen, this time Reggie gains 10 for the first.

Looks like the game plan is going to be run and short passes.

 

[videoguy505]

As soon as I type "short passes", Brees throws one to Copper 40 yards downfield. No catch, and no Pass Interference as the ref picks up the flag--saying Copper and Webster tangled feet.

 

[videoguy505]

3rd and 5, and Brees scrambles for 3. Going for it on 4th again.

 

[Marc Levin]

Anyone who thinks Reggie Bush is a bust is an idjit.

 

[EdwardCat]

God, Brees is killing me. Last week he was QB #1 and disappeared. This week he's QB #2 and he's pulling another Houdini.

 

[Marc Levin]

Bush for another 10 on the ground.

 

[Marc Levin]

"Doosh" for 10.

JK - I love Deuce as much as Bush.

(p.s. -Bush for another first.)

 

[Ghost Rider]

The Saints, between the dropped passes and the DB falling down on Buress' TD, are beating themselves.

 

[EdwardCat]

Looks to be nothing but Bush from here on out. Bad week to be a Brees/Barber owner facing Bush while he's eating up the clock. Both Payton and Brees have lost confidence in the pass.

 

[videoguy505]

Costly penalty for half the distance on the Giants, giving the Saints 1st down on the 2.

 

[videoguy505]

Giants with 2 good stops, now it's 3rd and goal from the 3.

 

[EdwardCat]

With that 4th batted pass, Brees officially = crap.

edit to say: upgrade to dirt.

 

[videoguy505]

Another big stop as the quick pass is batted down at the line again. This time it's Strahan--who's been in on D just about every play so far.

 

[scott72]

Wow unreal...Can the Saints screw this up any worse??

 

[videoguy505]

Can't stop them 4 in a row, Brees finds Colston on a fade to the sideline in the end zone.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Wow, ballsy call, going for it on 4th down, but it worked out as Colston catches the TD.

 

[CGRdrJoe]

Sick catch by Colston, sick
