I have no idea how Sam completed that pass to Wright.

Bradford showed what he is capable of if given a little time

Only problem the defense didn't get much rest and Brees has a lot of time.

Dalvin Cook's run blocking is absolutely immaculate. Man I already love this guy.

You can't sack Drew Brees, apparently.

It's the line, DP. They played great that drive, and Sam has this kind of arm talent and ability. If the line holds up, we can be good.

Go ahead. I dare you.
Underestimate this man.

Ben Leber on the sidelines calling the play ####, ref saw the play happen and THEN throws the flag.


I've got the sneaking suspicion we're either a.) using the infamous replacement refs, or b.) somebody attempting the throw the game; or it's c.) they are absolutely terrible.

He does that at least once a season and it gets called back because the refs just see how quick he gets there and seem to assume he had to false start

If Sam gets this kind of protection all year, he is going to make this offense hum. And then watch the running game explode.
