One looks at the record of Bye -Week teams and that is indeed a fact.
Saints offense is explosive. They win next week.
BTW, the papers are reporting the Baskett catch as it would be a first down.
But ESPN after game was showing Baskett went down without being touched and had gotten up and was about to run it all the way but Ref came up whistling the play was dead---and that was because of the flag on Young. It was a dead play once Young moved--and that is all he did, he lifted his hand a split second before snap.

Mike: Being an Eagles Fanatic may have saved my life or at least prevented a fractured skull.
I will say i took the worst backward flip on ice i have ever had today---90minutes ago.
i saw the ice(was in sneakers) and thought just little slow step and that will be o.k.
It was a slightly graded DOWN slope down and on contact my feet flew above my head and the back of my head hit the ice first.
I (ex-football RB instints) went immediately to a "sack of potatoes" mode and say i was like that for 3 minutes deciding if i was dead;)
I found where my head actually broke the ice, and then finally realized i had my Eagles Stocking Cap on with a folded layer.
Almost a 1/4 inch of cushion.

i think that is why i am typing now.:)
Showing some signs i bruised my neck. May get a stiff neck from this.
Warning: Never ever underestimate pure ice'es ability to dangerously flip you when in sneakers, even when you see where you are stepping.
A co-efficient of friction of 0 holds NOTHING, i now know! Max
