New Orleans Saints. Super Bowl Champions. Doesn't seem right.

Easily the worst Superbowl winner yet. Shouldn't have made it past Minny.

I wouldn't say THAT. Steelers over Seahawks? Steelers over Cardinals? Wild Card Raiders?

 

[CataclysmicThunder]

What a much-needed stratospheric morale boost for the state of New Orleans. Good times.

 

[Mister CIA]

Brees obvious MVP. Tie for second - Porter and Hartley.

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Congrats to New Orleans - outstanding game. Ballsy performances from the players and coaches.

 

[singman]

Wayne's drop pretty much sums this team up IMO. Soft. Guy was afraid to take the hit. He was turning away from it before he even had the ball.........

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Manning > Montana? I think not.

You're right. It's more like:Manning>>>Montana

 

[McBokonon]

I'm a pretty good drinker, and Irish, and from Pittsburgh...but even in my absolute prime there's no way I could keep up with the people in New Orleans tonight. Congrats Saints fans, and thanks for keeping the championship with the proper colors.

 

[HellToupee]

Reggie Wayne, Super Bowl goat

representing the U

Shockey and Vilma did well for the Saints...U players all over this game so I'll assume it means the U is a fine University.

it might mean they turn out ballers but don't confuse Miami with education & a fine university like Northeastern

 

[QuizGuy66]

4 years from 3-13 to Champions. Impressive

 

[BigTex]

Congrats Saints

 

[mbuehner]

Props to Hartley, those clutch FGs kept the Saints heads in it for a long time. Huge momentum.

Little late in the thread for a fishing trip. Everyone is leaving now.

 

[drew726]

played the saints money line, wooooot

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Shockey now has 2 Super Bowl rings, is he a future HoF TE?

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

The greatest SB ever was the Rams / Titans. Game saving tackle on the one foot line as time expired.

game saving? they were down by 7.

Maybe they score and go for 2 ?

then wouldn't the tackle on the 2pt conversion be considered a "game saver"?they can miss the earlier tackle and still win the game.

 

[Popinski]

Reggie Wayne with possibly the worst game he could have put up.

Bad game by Wayne. Very good WR, but I've never considered him elite.

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

state of New Orleans.

 

[Mister CIA]

Nobody bump the timscochet thread!

 

[HellToupee]

congrats Saints fans

You're right. It's more like:Manning>>>Montana

I like you a lot DD. Doubt we're going to agree on this one.

2001 Patriots for sure.I dunno that this Saints team is even in the bottom half.

Manning remains the best QB ever. Congrats to the Saints.

 

[gianmarco]

The better team won. I can live with that.

Thanks, DJ. Indy actually played a solid game until the very end. Great teams on both sides of the ball.

 

[King of the Wolfies]

Eli just texted Peyton and told him that he choked

Gotta give Manning lots of credit here. Took a team that wasn't even that good, with a rookie HC to the big game and almost pulled it out. Elway like performance there. Give Brees the Colts this year and they don't even make the playoffs.

 

[TenTimes]

New Orleans Saints. Super Bowl Champions. Doesn't seem right.

Yeah. Worst ever.

For sure, congrats on the win, it will never be taken from them, but 5 turnovers and a lucky coin flip overtime win + a Bob Sanders, Dwight Freeney, Reggie Wayne less team just doesn't impress me so much.

Good game tonight, very good day with the hockey game and the Super bowl and interesting road conditions.

 

[Breesisdaman]

Man New Orleans is going crazy. I just stepped out my front door. I hear crowds of people cheering, fireworks going off horns blowing and I live in the middle of storm ravaged Gentilly where there arent that many folks around. I can only imagine how crazy the rest of the City is going.

If tim thinks so, I feel even more confident disagreeing. SAINTS!!!!!!!

 

[Steve Tasker]

Drew Brees with his biggest win since my 2005 Dynasty FF league title

 

[ChargersOH]

Did the Colts Blitz at all? Brees was really comfy back there in the pocket.

The vaunted Colts pass rush was non existant. Freeney being gimped was a big deal.

Colts young WRs were ok, but not great. They could've used a bit more help.

Somewhere, Marvin Harrison is smiling.

 

[IDrinkyourMilkshake]

Great shot of Brees with his son

What was the Colts record this year with say Marc Bulger? 4-12? 5-11?

Just wrong.

I had some sniffles

 

[Michael Fox Fan]

I like ragging on Manning, but he's so impressive out there. Wouldn't be surprised to see him win a couple more trophies before he hangs up the cleats.

How many wins is Brees going to have with Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie as his receivers while the #1 RB averages 3.8 YPC. He'd be lucky to get to nine wins in the AFC with that team.

 

[King of the Wolfies]

i love the gigantic headphones. amazed the kid is screaming his head off

 

[belljr]

How wild would that have been had that bounced off the upright back to Harper.

Um it would have been incomplete

At best. Not sure the Saints would be much better than 6-10 without Brees.

Colts Defense was badly coached. Matching LBs against Colston and Bush all game was a nightmare- AND they couldn't stuff the running game anyway, so why leave them on the field? No adjustments I could see. But a lot of linebackers tackling Saints 20 yards down the field.

Goodell probably kicks them out of the league.

They just watched as Brees picked them apart.

Way to go Saints!!! Congrats to the Saints fans!!
