I dont think we played bad today and I will explain why
... and EVERY TIP goes to the Ravens...
This was a big deal to me, and the reason I don't really feel the Ravens really
dominated the Saints.
Three flukey plays stand out to me that would've made all the difference in the world had they gone the other way:
1) Marques Colston not leaving the ground on Bush's end-zone interception. That was strange to me ... Colston should be able to easily win that jump ball, but he never got off the ground. Did he lose the ball in the lights or something?
2) The tip off of Stecker's shoulder pad that the Ravens took back for six. Stecker makes that catch -- or just knocks it down -- and the TD never happens.
3) Heap's pinball catch. Again, if that ball gets knocked down, the Ravens probably are held to a FG.
Plus, there were a few too many times that a Saint got hands on a Brees pass and didn't come down with it. Some of those balls get caught, and once again ... the results could've been totally different.
