With latest victory, Saints look destined to win

Maybe the Saints are a team of destiny and have a legitimate shot at running the regular-season table. I just saw them rally for their 12th win of the season against the Redskins, and my first comment is it's hard to believe Drew Brees passed for 419 yards on what you could say was an off day.

Then, after a fierce rally, when the Redskins had a chance to put the game on ice, their kicker Shaun Suisham missed a 23-yard field-goal try, basically an extra-point attempt. This was the opening the Saints needed. They had a chance to tie it up, and they did exactly that.
But they needed some help in overtime.
The officials called Washington fullback Mike Sellers down by contact, and the whistles blew, but the replay official reversed the call on the field and the Saints were given the ball. Eight plays later, after getting it on the Washington 37-yard line, Garrett Hartley kicked the game-winning field goal.
The first big break for the Saints came at the end of the first half. Brees was intercepted by Kareem Moore, but he fumbled after a 14-yard return. Saints receiver Robert Meachem returned the fumble for a touchdown as the first half ended. That play also survived an instant-replay review. It was that kind of day!
