The Saints season ended in heart breaking fashion in Minnesota last night. A 61-yard touchdown pass on the final play of the game gave the Vikings an improbable 29-24 victory over New Orleans. It appeared New Orleans had just completed a successful comeback from a 17-0 halftime deficit to win 24-23. But that touchdown pass from Case Keenum to Stefon Diggs ripped the hearts out of the Who Dat nation. Coach Sean Payton…:
Cut 16 (13) “bit of time”
Saints rookie Safety Marcus Williams had an interception in the game, but it was his missed tackle that allowed Diggs to go in untouched into the end zone for the winning score. Quarterback Drew Brees no one should say Williams lost them this game…:
Cut 19 (13) “little different”
