[QUOTE="Raptorman, post: 269977, member: 655"] We have not all disappeared. Although I don't think I was talking trash. [FONT=Calibri][SIZE=3]As to the NFCCG last night here are my thoughts. Both teams played a hell of a game. The Vikings had too many turnovers to win. Although with that many TO’s the Saints should have killed them. [/SIZE][/FONT] [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri][/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][FONT=Calibri]MN offense: So did Brett cost them the game? Not in my opinion. He could have run the ball and Longwell may have made the field goal or he may have missed. I know the haters are going to be all over him and that is fine. But the only turnover that amounted to any Saints points was Harvins. All of the other turnovers just ended good drives that could have changed the outcome of the game. The Vikings moved the ball at will in the second half until they gave it back to the Saints. The Saints defense did a good job of hitting Favre and knocking the ball loose from the Vikings. Some Viking fans think the Saints got away with too many late hits on Favre.
