They scored immediately after that. That play would have worked from their 10 yard line .... True, but our Defensive play call may have been much different on their 20 yard line vs our 35 or whatever it was. they were at the 50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Sean Payton is known as one of the boldest coaches ever because this. If Hank Baskett fields it, he's a dolt if the Saints lose. I don't mind it and actually predicted it the kickoff before. It bounces off that man and we get it. They did their job that time. The way the defense played I will take my chances to do that too because will likely score either way.

If he hits him, we get the ball, if he doesn't it's a squib that should still keep them short of the 30-35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about Friday morning kickers? Our kicker bench presses #400. You might want to be polite. The guy could play LB, for the Bucs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, that defensive play call could be very different than if they're on their own 28. Not saying it's a given but. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it was a huge risk and could have been a huge reward. I'm fine with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
