Wild West Finish in Dallas! (Saints vs. Cowboys 2012, Week 16)

[@jahmadpeters4953]

Thats tuff asf

[@SalientShane]

Lmao yeah

[@phillyeaglesforlife5127]

Then the Titans got their revenge by blowing them out the next time they met in 2016

[@raymondsmith8027]

In my opinion, the Saints 2012 season solidifies Brees' greatness more than any other season in his career. No Sean P, an inconsistent running game, and one of the worst defenses in NFL history.....and he spearheaded them to playoff contention with 2 weeks left in the season. That's one of the most underrated single-season accomplishments ever. It also shows how special that passing was!!!!! He had some amazing weapons to throw to!

[@itdoesntmeanathing]

Ya that’s literally just Tony Romos career dude minus the last two years of his career

[@Valzod47]

2016 Rodgers: hold my beer.

[@eddiehollowall7034]

Not having Gregg Williams really exposed this defense

[@johnortan1890]

This season Romo had the 31st ranked run game (worst cowboys run game in over 50 years), a terrible oline, a receiving core that was playing injured the first half of the season causing about 8-10 ints alone from drop pop ups and wrong routes, and a defense that was playing about the same level as new Orleans worst in nfl history defense the last 8 games. And still went 8-8. 2013 cowboys team was even worse, and Romo went 8-7. Where Romo threw 17-3 td-int in those 7 losses. Both better records than what Brees had, just saying.

[@mitchelldouglas2483]

​@@johnortan1890 Why are you comparing Romo and Brees? No one asked.

[@petes474]

once again, Romo over 27 points and loses... most under rated QB in the history of football

[@josearellano3268]

Defense couldn’t stop not even an old lady crossing the street.

[@pabloramos420]

[@jacobharpell8125]

Anyone else just loving these classic game highlights

[@theinvictussamaritan4778]

So the thumbnail says 2010 and the title says 2012. *watches the Saints defense* Okay this is 2012.

[@wyattbdv]

lol didn’t we set an nfl record for most yards allowed by a defense in a single season? Lmfao our d was shit, it’s a shame because our offense was lit this year. Brees threw for 5000 yards for the second year in a row. Then in 2013 he did it again. We were loaded on offense. We coulda been a playoff team if The bountygate shit didn’t happen. Or we woulda missed it anyway because that year the sb was in our own dome and teams with home field in the sb never make it lol

[@theinvictussamaritan4778]

WyattBDV Mickey Loomis and Payton almost wasted Brees’ prime from 2008-2016 with just the worst defenses. Coulda of had at least 3 Super Bowls appearances by now.

[@wyattbdv]

The InvictusSamaritan could have more if we haven’t constantly had our defenses screwing us out of the playoffs. We would’ve won the super bowl in 2011. For sure. No doubt. And we could’ve made an appearance in 2017. We would’ve won it in 2018 also (not the defenses fault in fact our d played great in that game). But yeah ur kinda right. We had lots of busts in that D

[@theinvictussamaritan4778]

Tyler G you’ll regret what you said about Bridgewater.

[@theinvictussamaritan4778]

Tyler G I told you so.

[@itdoesntmeanathing]

There was always hope with Romo

[@lovemym16]

But only once did he have a defense that could protect the lead he built. ...and the refs stole that season in green bay

[@hermyherm365]

Dallas defense sucked so bad that year poor romo miss that guy !

[@bjwalthall8328]

Defense still trash

[@motnurky7055]

@Tyler G not all of us man. Was hard to see Romo go but his health came first. Glad to see him as a fantastic commentator.

[@christopheralmaguer3310]

The Duke that’s a goddamn lie, Kirk cousins is fucking ass

[@zacharythomason7359]

I miss Romo as well too bad He didn't win the big like Aikman & Staubach

[@kylemonsterdrywallfistbump5948]

@The Duke phillip rivers is a great qb in his prime so that's not such a bad thing and tony has the best 4th quarter qb rating in history when he retired was 4th best all time in history all time 8th best in td:int ratio how tf was he anything like kirk cousins?? I don't know if you're riding on dak right now but he was 0-4 in drives where we needed to.win or tie on yhe last drive. He couldn't pull through. Not even on a depleted eagles secondary. Dak has the best support around him. Look at his arsenal at wr rb and the OL all elite. No excuses. But cool 2nd in yards right behind jameis winston good for him. Garbage time made dak think he's worth 40 mil and is showing his true colors. Selfish asshole could be making 33 mil with those same weapons along with Mike McCarthy. But he chooses himself over his team.

[@fabiana2630]

Man Bryant in his prime was so awesome to see!you knew every game he was going to make an acrobatic catch!

[@donmega6645]

Yea before he tore his archilles

[@isaiahbenton8133]

This game had the most anti-climatic ending I've ever seen as a Cowboys fan

[@Psyrecx]

Back when Dallas' defense bathed in Vaseline before every game.

[@barberism24]

I miss the “180!!!! 180!!!!! 180 SET HUT!!” With a dip in the shoulder throw

[@wyattbdv]

Thank you NFL Throwback for another great Saints game! I love watching these because you never can find normal highlights of games like these back from the 2000s and early 2010s lying around anywhere but when you upload em I can finally watch normal highlights! Thank you! Also what a game!

[@c.a.whodat]

WyattBDV yeah it’s as if NFL was actually there to upload them onto KZbin before they actually started doing it

[@jaleeldean8407]

WyattBDV I’m still looking for the saints vs cowboys game in 2010 on thanksgiving

[@swampsaint5782]

This game was so painful to watch live.

Imagine if Tony Romo had a defense

[@warmac88]

A heartbreaking lost but always a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan until I die. Go Cowboys baby!

[@Jmilli5.0]

Dallas defense was awful and garrot was coach. That offense deserves a superbowl

[@Elite90s]

This Saints team was very talented no cap.

[@MichaelJenkins-ry2ll]

I know our defense was shitty but I miss the Old 2008-2013 Saints 😢 I miss when we had Colston, Sproles, Graham, Moore, and some key players on defense

[@jaleeldean8407]

BigMike75 minus 2012 that was a terrible year lol

[@MichaelJenkins-ry2ll]

Jaleel Dean that’s when I started watching football so that season is special to me

[@gakk8658]

Darren Sproles, Mark Ingram, AND Pierre Thomas. Good lord were the Saints stacked at RB in the early 10s

[@yallcalleverybodyunderrate3556]

Cowboys & saints always play each other well

[@Bill_Woo]

While Cowboy haters trip over themselves calling Romo a "choker" the truth is that he had one of the _top 3 rankings of all time_ for comebacks and for 4th quarter rating. So the team didn't dominate in playoffs, and there were games like this where Brees, Peyton, or Rodgers prevailed. Is that on Romo? He put up Hall of Fame numbers, and his win-loss record as a starter is all time top ten. Check for yourself. He didn't quite pull off this game, but for each of these there are dozens of others people overlook.

[@pantherteen1997]

1:17 Gosh dang! I remember Demarco Murray was the man for the team. And I mean he was THE MAN! Way before Elliot came into the league, it was that guy

[@kylemonsterdrywallfistbump5948]

He only had one healthy year and he cost us games with fumbling once he finally stayed healthy. Including the playoffs in gb. both him and joseph randle cost us the game against on MNF against washington. 2 fumbles in the redzone. Taking away 2 probable td's instead of making romo throws it in crunch time breaking his back making him exit the game.

[@anthonyd1066]

casual murry had one very good year and that was it was always hurt or fumbling

[@johnortan1890]

Cowboys had the 31st ranked run game in 2012, worst cowboys run game in 50 years.

[@J_GoldieLoc]

If my Saints had a defense that year we would of made another run.

[@mauriceboykin4422]

When was the last time the saints defense stop and opponent when it counted.city of new Orleans deserves a lot better letting teams put of the hole

[@johnortan1890]

If cowboys had a defense, a non trash oline, a run game better than 31st, and receivers who weren't injured alot. They could have made a run that year. Lol

[@cameronsullivan6745]

Jimmy Graham’s hustle at the end saved that game.

[@cw4019]

two takeaways 1. Romo is one of the most underrated QBs of all time. I hate the Cowboys but that man was so underappreciated. 2. NFL overtime rules suck. This game deserved a college OT style finish

[@frederickwright952]

Technically it did have a college OT. Both teams possessed the ball and had the same amount of possessions

[@mrspeaker89]

DEZ CAUGHT IT... ...oops, wrong video.

[@Mr.17.5]

This is the only game I’ve ever been to. I remember Dez having an amazing game with 2 long touchdown catches and us losing in OT, but I don’t remember being down 14 in the 4th and us making a comeback. Glad I got to witness 2 great QBs.

[@thedude9786]

Dez Deserves a ring

[@trivianumber1503]

I miss Dez, especially 2014.

[@sportscardsreportcards]

I was at that game and it was a great game. Didn’t end the way we would have wanted to to as cowboys fans but it was great seeing good football players and a future HOF QB on the field

[@mikehike6894]

Was that Rob Ryans defense for the Cowboys? His blitzes never hit home and theres always a TE or WR just wide open without a defender within 30 yards. You could drive a Semi truck through his run defense no wonder hes unemployed. The Romo years were pretty exciting tho they had some wild finishes. DET twice, GB comeback with Matt Flynn, Monday night against Buffalo to name a few.

[@TG-ld8hl]

You really just have to appreciate the Cowboys’ defensive gameplan in this one. I mean, to come up with the strategy of getting 0 pressure, but also play horrible coverage, while also missing multiple tackles per play? That’s innovation right there.

[@pantherteen1997]

3:37 2 receptions, 116 yards, 2 touchdowns, and two 🙅🏾‍♂️🙅🏾‍♂️

[@akish302]

I miss having a reliable kicker like Dan.

[@matthewshortle5274]

It wouldn't matter because they both got eliminated from the playoffs that year.

[@TreWimsical]

Tyler G He’s still technically right tho

[@kingdelacerda9911]

Romo didn't have Jimmy Johnson offense or defense. But we had Romo

[@ldproductions509]

Can you do a video about Night Train Lane? A top 5 corner who never gets talked about

[@hotelaux4432]

are u serious lol just google dick nighttrain lane and youll instantly see everyone knew he was a GOAT. Plus he played in the 50s kinda hard to find new highlights

[@ScaryAppul-114]

Can Gardener Minshew get 10,000 subscribers? Night train is such a badass nickname

[@awsomealien234]

Jeez our defense was the worst

[@bigsquatch40]

Jimmy Graham just straight up out ran the cowboys safety for the fumble, he clearly wanted it more than the cowboys did.

[@SergieMUTHAFUKKINOh]

Why did I come to revisit the pain

[@J_GoldieLoc]

Lance Moore broke that guy Ankles at 5:14 lol

[@Dyno403]

We miss you mark, but wow what a game this was. Dez was a monster.

[@sunandablanc]

Wow. Two really bad defenses, but at QB two of the best pure passers the game has seen in this century in their primes. The touch passing and ball placement from both Brees and Romo in this game are amazing.

[@lukesmialkowski7870]

There,are few things in life that I like.Cowbums losing is near the the top of my list.

[@heinman6250]

If Brees was this age with today’s team...

[@andresavage9109]

Mark Ingram at 1:00 with the best TD dance ever

[@ryanscott5961]

Only NFL game I’ve ever been too and it was a pretty good one

[@pantherteen1997]

3:03 Dez made him look stupid

[@chrisgarcia9629]

This clip brings back bad memories about how bad our defense was...they looked like they were playing with butter all over their bodies...could not tackle worth crap! However DEZ was a monster in this game!

[@sonofmiriam]

1:15 when you hit the right stick up at the right moment in Madden. I miss Murray at his prime

[@MrWolf22804]

When I saw 2010 I thought it was the saints vs Cowboys thanksgiving game But when I looked at it, it said week 16 that's when I remembered the cowboys didn't play against the saints on week 16 2010 it was 2012

[@orangeviperau9960]

2010 GB vs Philly in NFC Wildcard.

[@leetraviusmckay314]

Cowboys should have gone for 2

[@joshreade4]

This game had me punching the air

[@dannywoo3535]

This can be a wild card match up if Brees doesn't play 100% in the 2nd half of the season. But it's still the Cowboys, so I have the saints winning in OT.

[@pantherteen1997]

1:17 GOOD LORD! WHAT A HIT! WHAT A TRUCK!

[@georgfriedrichhandel4390]

Garrett Hartley, a Dallas native, was the one who kicked the winning field goal to beat his old hometown team.

[@rrebelatl]

As a Falcons fan I miss those Aints gold pants. Nowadays they don’t even wear them anymore, plus they went from Black and Gold to Black and Beige under Nike and I’m not a fan of it. Bring back those gold pants.

[@jayman8860]

Could you imagine this Saints offense with the dome patrol defense?

[@benmaloy9757]

They had Ingram and Sproles at Rb, Jimmy Graham at TE, respectable Receivers with Colston, Moore.....and they were struggling to reach the playoffs. That's how much their defense held them back

[@josiahcrew375]

Colstons last good year. A classic saints team tho with that 3 back system with sproles, Thomas, and Ingram

[@danarnold5713]

What do ya know …romo throwing 4 touchdowns and the defense giving up 34 points. I bet this was romos fault too lol

[@phillyeaglesforlife5127]

Back when I couldn't pick which qb with #9 was better

[@losoifuknowso8938]

I love when the Cowgirls loose....

[@piijay14]

This game is a perfect example why Romo left the league without a ring. He has a great game putting up fine numbers but everytime he takes the field he's pressured to score cuz his defense plays so poorly! No pressure on Brees at all. Not sure if Dallas recorded any sacks in this game.

[@dmetal1221]

That made my day

[@sullyoutdoors1824]

Sad how our defense always seem to let us down. Brees and the offense would get us up and the defense would fail him.

[@ericgarcia8402]

That was a great game.

[@qceaz11]

Dez Bryant had so much potential too bad he let his attitude & ego get in the way of that

[@Sign_Your_Will]

All wrong, I can see if he had a great organization behind him but he didn't, he was the only one with passion most of the time

[@Sign_Your_Will]

@Jim Johnson Oh yeah for sure Romo, he literally broke his back for this team. But I just wanted to make a point with Dez

[@crazychris7417]

God Dallas secondary was god awful for years! Until now!

[@juustlandon]

Sorry to say it to you Sains fans but- Get ready for this week in 2019. Cowboys gonna beat down on those Saints. These games in 2012 were when we didn't have good defense at all, nor did we have Gallup, Dak, Zeke, and many others. **Get ready**

Thankfully both these defenses are much better in 2018 and this year than that year and hopefully they both meet in the nfc championship game so i can see one of them win the Superbowl. I have both teams pillows😁! And another good game for Sunday night like last years Thursday night game.

[@Jman417]

Packers beat Texans 55 to 0 on the highlights. The pack played a highschool team that day?

[@taylorsampson5434]

The Cowboys secondary during Romos career was so unbelievably pitiful for years. The only time they really tried to fix it was in 2012 when they signed Brandon Carr and then traded up into the top 10 to get Claiborne. He was a bust, and Brandon Carr was even worse.. Kind of wondering how Romos career would’ve been if he had the teams Dak has had.

[@mikevoss3732]

Since I screwed up my first message I’ll just say WHO DAY SAY!?!

[@mauriceboykin4422]

Just love to see the cowboys loose

[@LaTrey_95]

Man they showed that graphic at 7:15 and I cringed hard, because my Falcons had barely snuck by Seattle then blew that 10 point lead against San Fran in the NFC Championship. We blew that season.

[@pantherteen1997]

14:20 okay so this is where I’m a bit confused. A few seconds ago, Jimmy G fumbled but despite the fumble, is it by rule that even if you recover the fumble, it can’t be enforced to where the player recovered it?

[@1990Thunderbolt]

[@kalibakingJesustha1]

How u know?

[@peterpatrickcoyle1779]

Dez Bryant had skin grafts on his hand the week of this game. Everyone was counting him out and talking about how much the other wide outs had to step up. Well he pulled through and the other wide outs were really non-factors.

[@christianchairez8769]

Jason Garrett should’ve been fired after that year and it would’ve saved cowboys fans a lot of heart breaks.

[@anthonyd1066]

And the dak trashscott apologists think he's better than Romo! I don't think Romo ever went 3 games without a td!

[@johnortan1890]

Romo has the nfl record for most consecutive road games tds. Broke a 50+ year old record. It would have been broken by Peyton Manning a year or 2 later if Romo didn't break it. But still Peyton never reached Romos amount.
