Is it safe to say that our offense beat their defense? I got in a debate over that the other day cause someone said oh the saints couldn't handle the #1 defense and i was like well they kinda did. Didn't drew have over 400?
If that is safe to say, you might as well say the Vikings offense beat our defense back in 2009, because they had over 400 yards compared to our crappy 200 and something, but they didn't have the 6 turnovers that we had.
Forgetting the 5 turnover part...That's all that mattered. Sorry but they beat us on the one thing that changed the entire game. You don't win when you turn it over that many times, we were very lucky to even be alive in that game, cause if they had an offense like GB or NE that could have scored without turnovers, we would have been blown out badly.
