Wow, how inefficient!
The third quarter I believe they had one and a half drives that resulted in a TD and an end of the quarter change...
Which then resulted in a missed field goal in the 4th quarter...
Which then led to a drive where Manning drove all the way down the field and then threw a pick...
But somehow they were losing...
They punted twice...
Both times in the 2nd quarter...
One because Garcon n00bed himself...the other because they were pinned inside the 2 and were trying to take the game to halftime (stupidly enough)...
I'm telling you..
If Garcon doesn't drop that pass...that game was over.
And I don't care about the Colston drop because it's an entirely different scenario and it happened BEFORE the Garcon drop...
Sure...if Colston catches that pass and the Saints go up 7-3...the entire game would have been different, I know.
Just like had Garcon caught that ball when the Colts had the momentum...13-0 or even 17-0...different game. For sure.

Yeah that 15yd quick slant to garcon was a beaut that noone else could throw. So do we automatically discount the wide open colston drop that killed the saints momentum?
Its really humorous the lengths you go to to defend this guy.
