But what I loved about the game was the grit the Saints showed at the end. I have been in games like this (I'll post a link to the highlights of one at the end), and this is 100% coaches preparing their teams for adversity. It comes from making practice hard, consistent messaging, and accountability. It comes from having players with the right character, who even when all is lost continue to play their butts off. No championship caliber team executes perfectly every game, but EVERY ONE OF THEM have this grit.
