N.O. vs Philly (Speed Popper?)

In horse racing a "Speed Popper" is a horse that possess superior early speed relative to the opposition, often these types simply sprint to the lead and never look back, making every call a winning one.

After two convincing speed pops by the Saints, can they do it again verses the Eagles?

From the viewpoint of an equine speculator the answer is yes.

The Saints didn't just sprint out to the front and hang on for the win, no, they won convincingly, by open lengths, powering away in the stretch drive on both occasions, in horse racing we call this "Big Win Fashion", and it is a very good sign.

The Saints minus the points until they caught.

The Saints left the gate in front, now we'll see if the Eagles can keep up and pressure the Saints into submission.

A slow paced first quarter as the Eagles test the Saints for class.

A slow first half as the Saints attempt to dictate the pace while refusing to surrender the lead.

They've rounded the far turn and are now in the stretch, the Eagles make the first move as they surge to the lead, will the Saints respond? This where we see what the Saints have left in the tank.

They're at the 1/16th pole, neck and neck, you could throw a blanket over them.....

The Saints pull clear nearing the wire.

The Eagles are resurgent, this one is gonna be close.

The Eagles take the lead, ding-dong to the wire.

Lol this guy sucks

 Hahaha are you talking to your alter ego?

@Ferguson_Funk

 3rd and 16 

1min left   U get a 75 yd play 

absolutely a joke 

Saints did everything they could not to score until that TD 3 minutes before the end, then out of nowhere concede thant ridiculous TD to lose

When you see the odds on the Saints it must have attracted a lot of bettors on them ,

If you take into consideration the strangely attractive high odds and how the game went on and that easy TD at the last minute you can't think it was not rigged for a Phily win
