It was a game of runs, but the New Orleans Saints were able to hang on for a 35-29 win over the Detroit Lions to put their season back on track.
Story of the Game
The Lions jumped out to a 14-point lead after easily scoring on their first possession and starting with a short field after a Drew Brees slant route was tipped at the line of scrimmage and intercepted by Darryl Roberts on the Saints' first possession.
