    Why did Drew Brees run for a loss of 26 yards and a safety?

    I didn't see the game but that caught my eye in the box score.

    to prevent a late second punt from their end of the field (they were up by 7). instead they kicked off.

    Because it ran clock off the board and instead of giving them 20+ seconds he gave them 8 seconds to go 50 yards with 1 second left.

    Drew Brees is the number one quarterback in the league right now. Every game he is producing without any decent target, and without a run game.

    Did you see the game? They showed a breakdown, he had like 6 guys with 3 receptions and anywhere between 20-70 yards at the time.

    I was at the game... f*** yeh!

    Great game, loved it! Been to both London games and this one was miles better... it had it all... TDs, runs, passes, controversy, challenges, recovered onside kicks, missed extra points, FGs, a safety, punts, and a Hail Mary!

    Gotta love those Saints beating it out of those 3-5 Chargers hehe... playoffs, anyone?

    Great game, great atmosphere, everything was great. worth it all day.

    Well I hope I get tickets to the Pats coming to London, should they choose to come! Nevertheless, a great day that Buffalo lose, we win and push to get that division leadership!

    + Chelsea lost so excellent day for sports [Premier League soccer]

    As for the safety there was 16s left and NO was punting. They didn't want to give them that much time where they couldve mustered a good return a possibly a TD, so Brees basically run back into the EZ, took as much time off the clock as possible, then "under pressure" threw it out of the back of the EZ.

    *It was also said that he did it to prevent the possibility of a blocked punt and ensuing TD, impossible if there was a free kick post-safety.

    A stupid decision should the Bolts have converted that safety punt into points, but guess not now NO wins.
