[The Horrible Esthete]

Well, if they had force the Saints into a 3-and-out, they would've gotten the ball back with good field position and about 1:20. That leaves plenty of time for a gaining 35 yds and kicking the game tying FG. Failure to convert that 4th and 15 = game over then and there, due to field position.

I don't fault Reid for that decision.
