Charlie Smyth didn't let a pre-match illness get in the way of yet another record-setting Sunday as the Irishman kicked his longest field goal yet to help guide New Orleans to another victory. 

The Saints won their fourth in a row to move to 6-10 on the season with a Week 17 road win over the Tennessee Titans in Nashville. Smyth had been added to the New Orleans injury report on Saturday after reportedly suffering from virus-like symptoms and when he missed from 43 yards in the first quarter it looked as though he may be feeling the affects.
