John DeShazier: Takeaways from Coach Sean Payton's Friday teleconference

1. The Saints have committed six of their 15 turnovers this season in the last two games, four against Denver last Sunday and two against Carolina on Thursday night. Those are among the areas that stood out in the aftermath of Thursday’s 23-20 loss to Carolina at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C. “The turnovers set us back early,” Payton said. “We’ve had six now in two games and it’s been something early, for a good portion of the season, we’ve been good with, and I would say has helped us in regards to winning games. Six offensively in the last two weeks is not good, and you’re going to lose.
