It’s amazing to consider that the Saints faced the #1 defense in the NFL (now 4th), gave up 41 points, and won. The turnovers were huge and there were moments here and there – but the absence of Delvin Breaux and Kenny Vacarro finally caught up with them. This was a pretty abysmal showing defensively. Dennis Allen will expect better from his troops the rest of the season. Below are the grades:
Cameron Jordan: B- (2.86) Not his best game and a generous stat line. He had 3 tackles, 2 for a loss, and a sack that was mostly created by the pressure Fairley generated.
