(CNN) — What has happened to offense in the NFL? This past Sunday, the Saints led the Philadelphia Eagles 3-0 heading into the fourth quarter. The New England Patriots, Houston Texans, Cleveland Browns, Chicago Bears, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Las Vegas Raiders, Miami Dolphins and Dallas Cowboys all scored seven points or less in the first three quarters of their games.
