It wasn't that bad. NO finished 8-8. The NFC Wild Card teams were both 10-6. Minnesota was 9-7 and didn't make the playoffs. It was just horrible because the Saints had just completed a miraculous play and thought they were going to play an overtime period. Worst missed short missed kick ever was maybe the one in the Rams-Vikings playoff game in 1976 (Tom Dempsey kick blocked, returned 90 yards for TD) or the missed chipshot by Morten Andersen in 1996 that sent the Jaguars to the playoffs.
Lost in all the "FUCK THE DOLPHINS" business (which is warranted cus fuck the Dolphins) the Saints are a RIDICULOUS team
They've been doing that here and there since his rookie season. I don't think a permanent switch would be ideal 'cause he still does some nice things out of the backfield.
