Saints battling human nature after third consecutive 0-2 start

Human nature is squaring off in a heavyweight battle with the New Orleans Saints this week.

It's trying to grip any veteran player in its path. Any Saints player joining the team in 2015 could face a mental opponent. Those donning the fleur-de-lis since at least 2014 could become even bigger targets for human nature.

The Saints started 0-2 in 2014. They climbed back to 4-4, but never reached a winning record, finishing the season at 7-9.

The Saints started 0-2 in 2015. They actually lost four of their first five games, with the lone win coming in overtime in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome against the Tony Romo-less Cowboys.
