The New Orleans Saints were trying to avoid their first three-game losing streak since the 2016 NFL regular season as they traveled to Philadelphia to face the surging Eagles.
The Saints’ offense did what it has since the injury to Jameis Winston, it started slow and found itself in a 14-0 hole in the first quarter. New Orleans would get a huge chance to cut into the deficit after defensive tackle Christian Ringo forced and recovered a fumble by Miles Sanders at the Eagles’ 6-yard line. Trevor Siemian would find Adam Trautman for an 18-yard touchdown toss, reducing the deficit to seven points.
