To say Monday Night was going to be an uphill climb for the New Orleans Saints was a massive understatement. The team was heading into the game with more than 20 players on the Covid list including starting quarterback Taysom Hill and backup Trevor Siemian. That meant the Saints were turning to rookie quarterback Ian Book to make his first NFL start with a patchwork offensive line and against a team coming into this game on a 6 game winning streak. The game went how most expected with the Saints struggling mightily on offense while the defense held up as best they could, but ultimately the Saints fell 20-3.
