[QUOTE=bkeiller;50032]No real opinion either way but I could see NO winning and SF having more 1st downs due to the fact that NO has long yardage plays. They may gain 80 yards on a [B]touchdown[/B] drive and only have 3 1st downs while SF may have 6 on a similar [B]field goal[/B] drive.[/QUOTE]
Fixed.
As part of a larger portfolio, this can make sense. If NO takes an early lead, SF won't be able to grind it out and get all those easy first downs. I wish there were a first-half version of this play so I could take SF.
