Sometimes during a season with Super Bowl aspirations a team needs to win a game it has no business winning. Or in this case, a game we had every business winning but then with our own inepitude and the referees incompetence, we still found a way to win.

Yes, this team has flaws.

Please. Enjoy the win. Enjoy the win!!!

We had no business winning vs Washington in 2009 too. Sometimes a win like this is amazing for team morale and belief.

For the referees and Al Riveron to finally reverse a PI call where they were probably toasting champagne thinking they served 'poetic justice' and cost us a win, and our boys to still find a way to get the win. ENJOY IT!

I'm going to enjoy every game when we overcome Alberto Riveron.

I'm fine with the win and how we got it. Division game against a good team with a winning record. You win those with whatever score you can get.

But I'm still pissed at the officiating.

It’s hard to enjoy a game that should have been a blowout, but was called so blatantly one-sided. The defense didn’t play great, but this game should have been over much earlier.

But that’s not what the NBA, oops I mean NFL, wants. They want last minute drama, and they’ll do whatever they need to do to get it.

It certainly gives me pause for concern for the playoffs.

Any close game we have in the playoffs (and it will probably be every game we play), at this point Payton HAS TO KNOW we are battling the referees and league office too.

I thought we were 2 touchdowns better than the Panthers today but kept them in it with penalties.

It was also one of the worst officiated games I've seen in the NFL. About 15% of the calls were bogus. The spots were horrible. And I can only imagine the missed calls over what I saw.

This is the kind of game where you let an inferior opponent hang around and you expect to lose.

So it says something about this team when so much went against them, not to fold the tent and say this just wasn't our day.

Drew Brees said, "You haven't seen our best game yet." And he's 100% right.

We were not on our A game, offensively, defensively, special teams, and coaching. Yet we won.

That's something special.

Besides the Seattle Win, which I have personal reasons for it being so sweet, I felt this was the absolute sweetest victory of the season so far. I almost died I think from all the stress and bad calls and just it was a doozie. Things got very superstitious at the end at the Dyler Residence lol but man to just make it happen was the sweetest victory. We can really go into Atlanta Thursday feeling some good momentum

I enjoyed the game & the win. Sure I was upset with McCaffrery scored twice on the same play (once before the half & once after) & our guys made way to many penelties (or did they?) But it's funny how some fans say things like, "this should have been a blowout win!".... unless you've got the power to look into the future, there's no way to know that, sure that's what we all want, but it's silly to get upset because the team didn't WIN the way some people think we "should" have WON... we did WIN the game, so enjoy it! And stop getting upset because it wasn't 47 to 3 or something, our team showed it can win this type of game, whatever some may want to say about it good or bad, the fact is, we won. I honestly felt this game would be tough & close, so my expectations where not as high as others maybe.

I will enjoy this win as soon as I unpucker.

 

[BRsaintS]

We won by God's grace only!

 

[SigFreudianSlip]

Indeed!

 

[SuperSaint]

That's the name of the game, win and advance however you can, there are no style points...

I didn’t know Sly had nicknamed his kicking foot.

So what do you call the game against Atlanta in the dome?
