Good for #4 on the top 10 Saints plays of the season is Jo-Lonn Dunbar's sack of Jake Locker on the final play of the week 14 22-17 win over the Titans in Tennessee. The Titans were inside the Saints' 10 with a chance to win the game on the final play and this sack by Dunbar sealed the deal. You can watch the sack on this video below. The big play can be seen at the 3:17 mark. Enjoy!

While the Saints didn't win this game, it started the NFL season with a bang, and it was a sign of things to come for Darren Sproles. This electric punt return was just one of many ridiculous plays Sproles consistently made all year long.

This touchdown with under a minute left would give the Saints a 30-27 win in Carolina. I'm sorry I don't have a better video to show you, this is the best I could find. Kind of cool from the fan's perspective, though, to see the Saints' fans excitement combined with the dejected Panther fans burrying his head in his hands. Pierre Thomas had a lot of big plays this season, but this game winning touchdown was especially notable.

In the first installment of the Chronic off season podcasts Andrew Juge stops by to talk Super Bowl, the new Saints D-coordinator, and defensive line with Ralph Malbrough. Will the Junior Gallete be the answer to our pass rush prayers in 2012? Who will be back at DT? Also we discuss heavy drinking, how men trick women into marrying us and the black hole known as non football Sundays.

The Pro Bowl has mercifully ended in a 59-41 AFC win and the Saints players that were involved all had notable moments. The NFC coaches decide to leave Cam Newton in for the entire second half, and he was an absolute disaster out there. He was horribly inaccurate with his throws, his footwork was terrible, he threw three miserable interceptions, and he struggled to shake off the round of boos he endured for almost the entirety of the fourth quarter. If he can play half as bad next season the Saints will be able to easily take care of the Panthers again. As expected, the game showcased both defenses hardly trying and that resulted in a number of big plays and explosive scores. Still, there were some decent moments. Hopefully I watched the Pro Bowl so you wouldn't have to, and you're reading this write up right now in lieu sitting through that.Drew Brees finished... no comments
This is the last time this season you'll get to watch a Saints player on the football field and it may be the last time you'll ever see Carl Nicks wearing a Saints helmet. The NFC Pro Bowl squad will feature quarterback Drew Brees, tight end Jimmy Graham and offensive linemen Jahri Evans, Nicks and Jermon Bushrod. The game is slated for 7pm eastern (6pm New Orleans time) on NBC. Graham, Evans and Nicks will play with the starting units, while Brees and Bushrod will both come off the bench. I'll include a little recap of how each guy did for those of you that skip it.The only true interest I have other than seeing our guys do fairly well in this game is... no comments
With the Saints down 7-3 and facing a 3rd and 12, Devery Henderson ran right down the seam of a cover 2 outrunning double coverage and scoring on a picture perfect throw by Brees. The Saints would never look back after this play and would end up winning this game comfortably.

Jimmy Graham has had a number of ridiculous circus catches this season, but this was one of the best as he had a defender draped all over him and was still able to haul this in. Enjoy!

The 9th best play fo the Saints' 2011 season was a ridiculous display of athleticism as P-Rob got full extension to block a field goal just before halftime. Matt Stafford and Jim Schwartz both going insane makes this even better. Enjoy!

Now that the season's over and we're in offseason mode, I'm giving you guys a look back at the things that made us happy in 2011 with the top 10 plays the Saints made. You'll remember this game as one of the worst of the season, but that didn't stop Jonathan Vilma from making this play:
