Early 2000s vs the Vikings. Close game we go up late in the 4th. Stallpepper (Culpepper for you new saints fans) wins the game going for 2 after fumbling the snap, making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, taking a nap, then waltzing into the end zone. Saints were 9-4 and just needed to win one game to get into the playoffs. We lost last 3. “We want Jake!”

Year after, playing the Bucs. Needing to win. We’re up 7-0 and Brooks throws an absolute beauty of a rope in between Horn’s numbers in the endzone that he drops. Think we missed field goal or had a turnover. Bucs went on to win 14-7. Same year as the Jaguars debacle.

2013 Donte Witners helmet to helmet hit on Pierre Thomas. Changed the game. We would have on the SB that year.

    Not sure it would have mattered in the grand scheme but two plays from the Minny miracle game:

    1. Snead overthrowing a wide open Kamara when we were down 6

    2. right before we took the lead, we had 3rd and 1 with 33 seconds left and couldn’t get the yard. If we get the yard there we probably erase the chance of the Minny miracle even happening since we could have drained the clock

    I always think of the 75yd CJ Spiller receiving td against the Cowboys in OT. That was awesome 👌

    Lots of angry ones. Here are a few that are awesome.

    2006 home opener - Steve Gleason (that’s all I gotta say)

    2009 against the Redskins - the Brees int that became a strip for a Saints TD

    2017 also against the Redskins - down by 16 with 5 minutes remaining and got the W in OT. I was in the visiting team tunnel watching the end of that and heard some extremely pissed off players exiting the field. It was glorious.

    And in general, every time 23 has owned that bitch Mike Evans.

    The un-interception.

    Picture it. Washington D.C., 2009.

    3rd and 26.

    Brees flushed. Stiff arms a DE. Throws a pick.

    Robert Meachem straight robs dude of the ball and runs it in for a touchdown.
