Drew Brees is the master of the 2-minute offense
If anyone doubted that this is a special season for the New Orleans Saints before Sunday’s kickoff, they certainly are believers after the remarkable 34-31 overtime victory against the Washington Redskins at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. It would have been easy for the Saints to give up and say it wasn’t their day after Washington took a two-touchdown lead with 6 minutes left. But they refused to surrender and executed flawlessly in the clutch to author one of the most improbable comebacks in recent years. It was the first close game of the season and the Saints showed they are anything but front-runners. This is the kind of game a team needs to put together a special year and the Saints look poised for a run.
