Saints had a narrow miss this past Sunday. Saints scored 2
touchdowns in the 2nd quarter by Reggie Bush, one from a 3 yd rush, the
other from a 15 yd short pass. “Yeah, he’s a handful,” Rams linebacker James Laurinaitis said. “He’s a game changer.” It’s was the first time in a year that
Bush done that in 1 game. Wide
receiver Courtney Roby started the 3rd quarter with a 97 yd punt
return for a touchdown.
Rams took advantage of their running game and Saint’s 3 turnovers for a few touchdowns and did not
let the Saints get too far ahead, especially in the 1st half. However, they could not manage to put
together enough points to end the game.
A key loss for St. Louis was an incomplete pass in the endzone that
would have put them in the lead at the end of the game. The final score was
28-23. Rams are 0-4 at home. It was their 9thconsecutive home loss, and it broke the Saints 2 game losing streak
against the Rams. The Saints have both a
knack for working well under pressure in
the 4th quarter, but also a knack for bumbling up against the easy
teams. Luckily, the former came
through and the boys continue their 9-0 undefeated season. QB Drew Brees comments: “We’re not
content with where we’re at, and we’re certainly not content with the way we’ve
played these last few weeks,”. “We need to close the game out when we’re given
the opportunity,” said Brees. The
still have a command lead in the NFC South. Next week is a divisional game
against the Bucks. Who Dat!
