So the game winning TD was an audible?
Well done, Kirk.

I think what happened was a line of scrimmage read (designed into the play/scheme) where both Cousins and Rudolph recognized the Saints were going to blitz, making Rudolph the hot receiver. |

That's exactly what Rudolph said, post-game: He and Cousins both saw the blitz coming, and Rudy was the hot route automatically. It's tough to audible near the endzone on the road in a playoff game. They have to be able to get on the same page despite being as good as 'deaf'. |

Neither gave up if it was designed or not but obvisously when a 6'0" William is going against a 6'6" Rudy you gotta give it a try. |

You had to be blind not to see it. My dad and I both said "Rudy 1 on 1" before the snap.

Cousins made that call. Zimmer said they had another play called and cousins recognized cover 0 and knew what to do. So, without technically checking into an audible, they audibled the play.

That specific play is exactly why Rudy has a place on this team. A pitch and catch just like Daunte and Randy used to do.

It was in the video when Zim quietly/quickly mentioned Kirk changed it up or something to that effect. |
