If there’s any consolation for Saints fans, it’s that this game won’t get a catchy nickname.
He was a one-man momentum machine, though the Saints’ greatest ever player kept mucking up the gears. Brees’ interception came on the possession following Hill’s successful deep ball, and his fumble happened immediately after Hill rushed for 28 yards to put the Saints deep in Minnesota territory.
The Saints would get the ball back in regulation, but Payton inexplicably used one of his two remaining timeouts before the two-minute warning , so New Orleans didn’t get the benefit of an added break during its final drive. They were forced to kick a game-tying field goal rather than go for the win, and Wil Lutz’s 49-yarder merely rolled out the red carpet for Kirk Cousins to transform into purple Joe Montana during overtime.
If there’s to be any consolation for Saints fans, it’s that their misery wasn’t all that memorable compared to miseries of recent past. Just pray that “The Kirk Cousins Game” doesn’t stick.Readers like you make our work possible. Help us continue to provide the reporting, commentary and criticism you won’t find anywhere else.
