Add to that:

3. Teams that subsequently give up 99yrd drives after getting stopped 3 straight times on the 1 don't belong.

THAT is Saints football at it's finest. :rolleye33: :dis: :bncry:

"finest" is probably not the best word to describe it

:lol:

they do still have a shot going into week 17.

they have to:

1. win at Chicago (unlikely)
2. hope Washington loses to Dallas's second string (unlikely)
3. Hope Minnesota loses at Denver (more likely than 1 and 2)

There still is a pulse. Just a really, really faint one.

Break out the defibrillators.

Uh, you might want to call the funeral home as well, just in case.

so... what do you know? The saints just violated 2 more rules:

1. Kicking the ball to Devin Hester
2. Giving up 24+ points to the Bears in a half.

Saint's playoff chances are slim to none and slim is fading into the sunset right now.

maybe if they'd kick a FG or two and not go for it every, single fourth down, they'd have a chance.
