    It's probably no secret that the Steelers achilles heel has been turnovers this season.

    What isn't quite as apparent is the Saints inability to create turnovers. While the Saints defense has overachieved, it has not done a very good job in the turnover department.

    The Steelers lead the league in turning the ball over with 24 in just 8 games.
    The Saints are 29th in the league at creating turnovers with just 10.

    Game within the game.

    The over/under for me is 2. Saints get more than 2 turnovers today, they win. If the Steelers keep it to 1 or less, they win.

    Well according to Bobby Hebert and company on the pre-game... they think it's going to be a close game. I just don't see that. I think the Saints can win this one by 14 points or more...

    Maybe I just had to many beers :)

    Unbelievable! He jumped from the three, and landed at least two yards INTO the end zone. That was freaking awesome.

    As Jim Jones might say, HE FLY HIGH, NO LIE, YOU KNOW IT. BALLIN'!!!!!!!!!

    Anyone else impressed with the Saints ability to come from behind? We do need to stop spotting teams 14 points a game. Someone tell Peyton to stop showing off...

    That was just awesome. Nice play calling. Similar to the "Superdome Special" used aginst Atlanta.

    Saints have shown a lot of resiliency today coming back from a 14-0 hole.

    If Colston could have stayed on his feet, that would have been a TD. He is just as incredible. Deuce is loose and scores.

    What a half! Saints up 24-17 at the half.

    Colston with 100+ yards in the first half... Rookie MVP no contest...
