ATLANTA -- Either he was watching or someone alerted him to what happened, but Steve Gleason made sure to remind the Atlanta Falcons after Alex Okafor blocked a Matt Bosher punt midway through the third quarter of the New Orleans Saints' 43-37 overtime win.

"Uhhh. Hey @AtlantaFalcons - #NeverPunt," Gleason tweeted.

It was Gleason who famously blocked Michael Koenen's punt in the Saints' first post-Hurricane Katrina game at the Superdome, and while this one did not have the same historic feeling, it did come at a big moment in this Week 3 contest, giving New Orleans great field position in a game it trailed 21-16 at the time.
