Seattle Seahawks failed to score in the final drive
The game took a turn when Jameis Winston led the Saints offense for a 42-yard drive helping his team score a field goal for three points late in the fourth quarter. Geno Smith, however, failed to carry his offense down the field as the Saints were able to sack him twice during that final drive.
Fans of both teams were at the edge of their seats, but finally, the Saints emerged victoriously. Later on, people took to Twitter to express their agony or pleasure towards their respective teams.

New Orleans Saints owned the last moments
Though Seattle Seahawks started off the game with a touchdown, they fell short of just three points to register a win against the Saints. The Saints were able to get back in the game after they scored 10 points in the second quarter to gain a lead of three points.
Take away the big D.K. Metcalf play and Seahawks have 57 total yards.
