REALLY Saints? REALLY? Did you REALLY have to go for that?

Saints go for it on 4th down within their own 30 and get slammed backward.

This game is a perfect example of why they will change the rule stating that a (below) .500 team doesn't deserve a home game in the playoffs. The Saints tied for the 2nd best record in the conference and the Seawhos tied for 8th. It's only natural that the team that was 4 games better starts the playoffs on the road. [/sarcasm] It makes no sense that the 12 win Ravens are the 5th seed in their conference when they tied for the 3rd best record in the whole league. Winning a division should just get you a playoff spot. All of these other perks are retarded.

I thought it was a great play call. They're usually great in that situation, they're down 14, it's less than a yard, take the shot. I think a team going all out to try to shift the momentum is a great idea, and even though the play failed, it's been all Saints since, and I don't think it's a coincidence.

For god's sake, Seattle, don't be a Seattle team right now.

Yes well, a team like the Saints shouldn't be getting knocked around by a 7-9 team regardless of where they're playing.

Touchdown Seahawks!

Holy fucking shit!

It was a gutsy call for sure, but given the field position and the fact they had plenty of time to still comeback, it wasn't worth the risk. Indeed, they came out okay, but still, that could have shut them down right then and there. We will agree to disagree though.

the Seawhos

Who indeed.

[Lint]

Holy shit..he broke what...like 4 tackles?

[Universal]

I kind of caught that in the middle but WOW. Watching that back, that was impressive.

Marshawn Lynch says, "You can't tackle me! I'm on speed!"

I agree. I'm just saying this game will cause a rule change.

Marshawn Lynch activating BEAST MODE was pretty fucking impressive. I hear that # 22 of the Saints was disowned by his mother shortly after that play ended.

[GoGo Yubari]

Dammit dammit dammit dammit dammit.

EDIT: Haha, yes!

[Szumi]

That was one of the worst onside kick's ever.

[Lint]

and a Saints linebacker takes a cheap shot when their lined up in the victory formation.

Very classy. I could understand it if the Seahawks blew them out and ran up the score..but that was a toughly played DAMN good football game. Hats off to the Seahawks..

[Universal]

Thousands of football fans sit in sadness that they didn't put money on the Seahawks.

2010 NFC and Superbowl Champs are done, now it's time for the Jets to take out the AFC champs.

Oh GoGo, it's a wonderful day to support the Seahawks!

Until they get raped by the Falcons/Bears next week All kidding aside, I'm punching the throat of the realist in me and rooting for the Seahawks to make it as far as they can.

[Meacon Keaton]

Games like that are exactly why this is the most popular sport in the country.

You really can never tell in the NFL.

[The Buscher]

My bracket is fucked as I had the Saints going to the Super Bowl, but I don't care. More reasons as to why I'd be beyond depressed if there were a lockout next year.

[Cadj]

Well the horrible Jets offense has decided to turn up for this match so we're not going to win.
