Monday night football Pats and Saints



As I sit here watching the football game I am surprised at the way the game has begun. Both teams have scored on their opening drives. The Saints were touched by the angels on a short field goal that bounced off the upright. Immediately after that drive the Pats came back with a long drive for a touchdown. Laurence Maroney ran the ball like he was on a mission and that drive ended with him in the end zone!

After an unsuccessful drive the Saints kicked it off to the Pats and Wes Welker took the ball and ran like the old commercial that depicted OJ Simpson back in the 80's. He ended up at the 50. The Saints Defence just picked off the ball at mid field. running through the airport.
This is going to be a great game.
Remember how I said that Laurence was running? Well Pierre Thomas has his mind set on punishing the Patriots! This guy is running hard as well. At this time the score is 7 to 3 Pats.
4th and 1 at the 20 for the Saints and they go for it. And they got it! This game is being fought real hard on both sides.
At the 20, screen pass by Drew Brees to Thomas and he gets in the end zone Touch Down!!!!!! 10-7 Saints. This is going to be a very entertaining football game, Both Coaches have gone for it on 4th and short successfully and both teams have found the end zone. One thing that is obvious these teams are at a different level than most of the teams in the NFL. There haven't been any penalties to this point.
Touch down Saints! Devery Henderson just got behind the DB's and the Safety and completed a 70 yard touchdown pass.
OMG LAurence Marony just trucked a linebacker for a 10 yrd run.
Just like clock work Tom Bradey is moving the Pats down the field, this guy is really good. Wow we just received our first penalty flag in the game at the 6:16 mark in the second quarter.





Field goal by the Pats gives us a score of 17-10 Saints in the lead with the ball. They have 4 minutes left in the 1st half and Drew Brees gets an opportunity to get some more points on the board.
Touchdown Drew Brees to Robert Meachem on a 35 yrd pass play. There is 1:50 in the 1st half and the Saints lead the Pats 24 -10 Bradey has the ball working the two minute drill. So far the Pats haven't been able to do anything in the two minute drill there are 23 seconds left and still no score, they lined up for a long field goal with no success. the 1st half looks like it will end with the Saints up 24-10.




Ok the second half has started and it looks like the Saints broke out a fresh can of Whoop -- out on the Pats. Just to state what the second half was like in my best description, Beat down! The Pats couldn't stop the Saints offence, Drew Brees ended the game with a perfect passing rating of 158.3 he completed 18 out of 23 passes for 371 yards. The final score was 38-17 Saints and Coach Bill will probably go home and kick his dog at the performance of his team.
In conclusion we have seen the Saints up against the last team that went 11-0 and they performed admirably in a dominating show of passing/ running/ and catching efficiency.
I wonder how far they will go? All we can do is sit back and enjoy the ride.

  2. I'm going to be the "I can't believe she said that" person today. I think that the rookie quarterback for the Bucs - Freeman will make a difference next year. Just need a coach that calls the plays not the defeat.
