What in the...
New Orleans utterly did a number on Carolina tonight...
*sigh* I finally get to watch a Carolina match and every aspect of the game they've excelled at for the last 2 months, they get annihilated in. Their run game never got going, Cam didn't get to scramble much, Steve Smith was contained all night, while their defense just couldn't keep up with Brees, Graham and Colston. That game was over at half time...
Everyone has an off day at some point, but that one was a major one for Carolina. Games they fall way behind in early are going to be problematic for them. Their D is normally superior but that offense is hardly explosive. O-line (especially right tackle) and a playmaker or two in the WR core seem like real priorities.
Apparently today had the most touchdowns ever in a day of NFL action. I think the final tally was around 92. Drew Brees also became the fastest QB to reach 50k yards. And Matt Prater set a new field goal record with a 64 yarder in Denver today.
If one thing came out of today's games - no team is a real certainty to go all the way at this point. Which makes for exciting times.
