New Orleans Saints end 7-game skid in Darren Rizzi's debut

NEW ORLEANS -- New Orleans Saints interim coach Darren Rizzi came to his postgame press conference still trying to get the feeling back in his hand after his first win as an NFL coach.

Rizzi and the Saints (3-7) were so excited to break a seven-game losing streak on Sunday that he was accidentally pushed in the back a little too enthusiastically by defensive end Payton Turner. It flared up an old injury to Rizzi's shoulder and arm, causing his arm to go numb and throwing off his balance as he stumbled into Turner amid a crowd of celebrating players.
