From Oct. 15, 2006, both the Saints and Eagles enter this game leading their division with 4-1 records.
NFL talking heads were not impressed with the Saints at this point. "They really haven't played anybody." "They're just playing on emotion. They'll fall back down to earth." This game went a long way in changing some of those viewpoints.
Joe Horn reminds us that he's still on the team, with his first touchdown in the last 17 games.
Watch Sean Payton with arguably the best example of clock management. The final drive: a 16-play scoring drive, holding the ball the final 8 minutes of the game.
