Watching this play now makes me more sad than excited because of what a waste it was for such a spectacular and crucial touchdown. Still, it deserves credit for being one of the most clutch plays all season long. This touchdown would give the Saints a 1 point lead with 1:48 left in the divisional playoffs thanks to Jimmy Graham doing what he does best: making plays. You know what happens after this score so I'll spare you the details, but this play is good for the #3 best play of the season. Too bad that wasn't the difference because of the buzz this play would have created. Instead, it's sort of forgotten but it really was special. Enjoy.

Many believed Drew Brees should of been MVP especially after Matt Flynn threw 6 TDs in week 17, as that one game was an indication of how ANY QB can come into the Packers system and put up huge numbers. I don’t agree. Brees lost to the Rams and Bucs this season. The RAMS and the BUCS! The Rams are picking...
