Unbeaten Somehow

The New Orleans Saints remained unbeaten in the 2009 season somehow, by ending up with an overtime win against the Washington Redskins which was barely earned. When the Redskins were ahead during the end of the 4th quarter with an in-range field goal opportunity, we thought it might work out to be the Saints’ first loss of the year. But they botched the field goal and Brees threw for a big touchdown reception at the end. The game went to overtime where Washington had the ball, but it was fumbled away. Then Brees went to work again, getting down to the 1 yard line and then they got a field goal to win 33-30. It was an unexpected and unlikely way to come back, but that’s what you have to do as an elite team sometimes.
