Some will say the Saints have turned it around. Others will say the Panthers are just really bad.
Either way, the USA Today Week 4 Power Rankings say that New Orleans is trending up as they slot in at No. 19, up seven spots from last week.
Prior to shackling Carolina on Sunday, the last time New Orleans had forced three turnovers and allowed fewer than 300 yards was 2014.
The Saints of Week 3 looked nothing like the team that took the field in the first two weeks: they were efficient on both sides of the ball, the defense stood tall and made plays and Drew Brees only attempted 29 passes.
