Manning f'ed up by throwing to the wrong fugging guy. Watch the tape. It's screamingly obvious.

And I agree, great job Saints, but that pick is NOT on the WR.

I guess you misunderstood. The route itself wasn't crappy (nothing wrong with a good curl route), it was poorly executed by the WR. Pause at :17. What's going on with his feet?

Yes, Manning could have thrown to a different (open!) receiver, but in the face of a blitz options are rushed and limited. I don't understand why the WR made no play on the ball. I heard someone claim that he slipped, but I'm not sure that's what I see.

And the Saints are awesome and tops at creating turnovers.
