Canal Street Chronicles
This is starting to sound the same, but the New Orleans Saints have lost again. After last week’s horrible game against Seattle, the Saints did the unthinkable and stayed competitive against the Super Bowl-contending Buffalo Bills. Will this change the rankings?
“OK, I can admit I was wrong to have them ranked 32nd last week. The 31-point loss to the Seahawks looks like more of an aberration so far, and Sunday was the Saints’ best effort of the season, coming against a very good Bills team in Buffalo. Spencer Rattler couldn’t win his first NFL game as a starter (0-10) on his 25th birthday, but he played pretty well again. There are multiple NFL starting quarterbacks worse than Rattler, and I think the Saints might actually have someone worth investing in. With Rattler, Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller, they have some playmakers. There are still too many self-inflicted wounds all around, but I think the Saints will win a game in the next month — and they could surprise a team ahead of them in the standings. “
“Make no mistake, the New Orleans Saints are a bad football team. They’re 0-4 to start the season, and fell to the Buffalo Bills 31-19 in Week 4. However, like the Browns, they’ll give everyone problems so long as they continue to play hard. One player who’ll continue to play well is the omnipotent Demario Davis. His 87.1 overall PFF grade is fourth among linebackers.“
“The New Orleans Saints showed some fight on the road in a matchup with a Super Bowl contender, but the Buffalo Bills still beat them by 12 points.
As a pro football team, the Saints should be competitive. Still, whether it’s Spencer Rattler or Tyler Shough under center, they’re arguably the league’s worst club. — Moton”
“After a horrible showing in Seattle, at least they showed some fight against the Bills. They are too limited in terms of personnel.”
“TAYSOM HILL IS BACK.”
