New Orleans Saints @ Seattle Seahawks Playoff Thread (2 Viewers)

You know, we really shouldn't be clowning Colston. That play has Sean Payton written all over it. He did what he was asked and he's not a quarterback.

 
Not trying be biased, but I hope Seahawks fan aren't wanting the niners.
Why not? The last 2 games the Niners have played up there have been massacres. And both times the Niners were in full stride, it's not like they caught the Niners with injuries and in a slump. I'm more worried about Carolina who I really think will win tomorrow.

 
I would want him cut tomorrow if I were a Saints fan. That's brutal. No football sense whatsoever.
LOL :D

- 11 Receptions

- 144 receiving yards

- 1 receiving TD that put them in position to even attempt the on-side kick attempt

- 1 on-side kick recovery to give them any shot to win the game at the end.

But he threw a forward lateral in the final 5 seconds of a game.

Did you notice #30? The RB who was supposed to be 'trailing' the play?

He over-ran the ball so Colston's only play was a forward lateral.

I know, I was exaggerating because I was so mad he didn't give them a chance at the end zone. Just step out and you take one final shot. But I guess it's not all his fault if that was the designed, stupid play.

Even so, he should know as a WR after you catch it you can't try a throw a slant pattern to Sproles.
I'm sure he knows. In 8 seasons, I'm quite sure that's his first pass attempt. He's also throwing 30 yards across the field and may have tried to compensate for the wind. Rough spot to pop your cherry.
 
Seattle is the most unimpressive great team I have ever seen.

They simply don't make mistakes and let other teams beat themselves with turnovers.

Defense and run game is impressive.. Add in a very good to great special teams unit and a QB that simply does not make mistakes.

It's all play calling. See the second half of last season or the first Saints game. They just want to grind it out and take shots. Unfortunately for them, more than 3/4 of the pass catchers are banged up to some degree right now. They have no game breakers outside of Marshawn Lynch (that can stay healthy).

And they still have a great shot at going all the way...

Or stepping out of bounds and giving them a chance to tie

Coach call a play you go with the play.

Beat team on the league with the best home field advantage. My apologies to Seattle fans for my edited comments last night. I was out of line

And they did, you need to be able to adjust though.

 
Congrats Seahawks fans. Still not enough offense to win it all but good game.
This is quaint. I think this game placed the final nail in your "home field cooking officiating" coffin.
Pizzatyme is a bottom ten Shark Pool poster, think about how hard that is to do?

I hope the Colts get housed tonight and I can't stand the Patriots.
Yeah, PT is about as bad as it gets. But I'm rooting for the Colts. Would rather not play the Pats in their backyard in 3 weeks if we make it past next week.

 
This game is exactly why they say defenses win championships. A great defense is way more consistent than a great offense.

When it comes to great offenses, it takes one stinker game and your out. Usually your average defense won't pick you up.

A stinker game for a great defense is giving up 20 (something your average offense can overcome).

Manning had to deal with below average defenses his whole career. This gave him no margin for error.

I thought you were a lions fan.
I've been posting here as long as you have. Miss the memo?

Billy was right, it was a designed play and if you noticed Colston caught the ball and twisted away from the DB and had to step back to re-set his feet just to attempt the lateral and Sproles didn't hang back but drifted ahead of Colston who probably didn't even know where Darren was in relation to where he was so he un-corked it and that was the ball game.

I can't blame Colston for not stepping out of bounds and even if he did it would be out of range for Brees to attempt a hail-mary into the endzone, it would have to be another hook-and-ladder attempt which had very little chance of being successful.

At the very least give em credit for having a puncher's chance on the final play.
