Falcons fans have honorary doctorates in choking. After a blown 25-point lead in the Super Bowl we are undoubtably experts. And today I must take my hat off to the New Orleans Saints. Their dedication to blowing huge playoff games on nearly a yearly basis is otherworldly.
The Saints have put together an impressive regular season stretch after their prior Jeff Fisher-esque 7-9 stretch. This year they were the top seed in the NFC with an impressive 13-3 record. The year before? 11-5 with 1st place in the NFC South. Both impressive playoff berths with the same result.
