State of the New Orleans Saints after beating the Los Angeles Chargers 22-17
The Saints beat the Chargers to move to 2-0 in the preseason. While it wasn’t the prettiest game, the Saints were able to get the win. The biggest issue for the Saints was penalties. The team had a whopping 14 penalties. This is absolutely inexcusable, even if it is the second unit playing. Dennis Allen and the staff will absolutely make this a point of emphasis in practice.
The biggest change for the Saints this week was the emergence of Niko Lalos.
