Reply to "It's Saints Week"

I was at the Monday Night game in 2008.  The game was 24-21 at half.  In the first 2 possessions pf the second half, AR threw 2 picks which made the score 38-21.  Then the offense had a 3 and out followed by a TD by NO making it 45-21. GB scored 8 and NO 7 more, but they game ended on the 3 drives to start the half. Can't really blame the defense in that one.

In 2014, the game was tied at the half, 16-16.  GB got the ball to start second half and AR drove them to the NO 5-yard line.  AR throws pick #1 of the half, and NO drives the field to take a touchdown lead.  Then the Packers unsuccessfully go for it on 4th and 1 in their own territory.  Short field and Saints score again.  Pick #2 of the half, NO scores, it's a 21-point lead (deficit) and that's the ballgame.

So really, in both blowouts, it was squarely AR's poor play in the second half.  He needs to be better.
