The New Orleans Saints seized momentum over the Philadelphia Eagles in the divisional round of the 2018 NFL playoffs off the strength of an insane 18-play, 11:29 drive to start the second half. That’s the longest possession in NFL playoffs history since the 2000 NFC championship game, per Stats by STATS.
The @Saints just reeled off an 18-play drive that took 11:29, the longest postseason drive by time since the Giants ended the 2000 NFC Championship Game with a 12:53 drive. #GoSaints
That historic possession was, ironically, helped by a number of Saints mistakes.
