THE MATCHUP In a battle of NFC powers, the Saints (4-2) will travel to Soldier Field to face the Chicago Bears (5-2) on Sunday for a 3:25 CT contest, riding a three-game winning streak.

The Saints are coming off a 27-24 victory over the Caro-lina Panthers on Sunday led by two touchdown passes, a one-yard rushing touchdown and a fourth quarter game-winning drive for the go-ahead field goal by QB Drew Brees. It marked his 52nd career fourth quarter/overtime game-winning drive, ranked second to Peyton Manning (54) in the Super Bowl era. In addition to Brees’ scoring dive, the club’s running backs also made a signifi-cant contribution as RBs Latavius Murray and Alvin Kama-ra combined for 195 total yards from scrimmage, with Kamara having 148 combined yards and Murray serving as the sledgehammer final drive, contributing nine yards to New Orleans’ game-clinching first down. The Saints also were a season-best 12-of-14 (85.7%) on third down.

Defensively, New Orleans allowed only 283 net yards to Chicago in an impressive defensive performance where they gave up only 37 rushing yards on 14 carries (2.6), the fewest rushing yards surrendered by the Saints in 2020. The New Orleans defense allowed only seven points in the second half and DE Marcus Davenport helped seal the win when he dropped Panthers QB Teddy Bridgewater for an eight-yard loss on third down on Carolina’s final posses-

sion, forcing them to attempt what was an unsuccessful 65-yard field goal try.

A fast start was important in a contest where New Orle-ans won the time of possession battle 34:41-25:19. Brees led New Orleans on their most impressive starting drive of the season, a 14-play, 75-yard drive that chewed 8:26 off the clock, ending with a four-yard touchdown pass to TE Jared Cook. New Orleans then took a 7-3 edge into the second quarter by holding Carolina to a field goal.

New Orleans took a 14-3 edge early in the second quar-ter on a one-yard rushing touchdown by Brees. Carolina quickly took the lead when Bridgewater tossed touchdown passes to Panthers WR D.J. Moore on Carolina’s next two drives. With 1:37 left in the half, Brees led New Orleans on an eight-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a four-yard touchdown pass to WR Deonte Harris to put the Saints back on top heading into halftime.

New Orleans then forced the only punt of the contest to open the third quarter and followed it up with a 41-yard field goal by K Wil Lutz to give the Saints a 24-17 lead with 4:24 left in the period. Later in the quarter, a five-yard rushing touchdown by Panthers RB Curtis Samuel tied the score at 24-24.

Getting the ball back, Brees led a 13-play, 50-yard drive that ended with a 43-yard field goal by Lutz to give the Saints the 27-24 lead they would hold onto.

Saints at Bears: Week Eight

LAST MEETING

Saints 36, Bears 25; October 20, 2019 @ Soldier Field – S Vonn Bell and LB A.J. Klein each recorded fumble recov-eries, one of which QB Teddy Bridgewater converted into a touchdown pass to help New Orleans increase their win-ning streak to five contests with a 36-25 win over the Chi-cago Bears at Soldier Field, the Saints’ fifth consecutive victory over the Bears.

The Saints held Chicago to only 17 rushing yards, the fifth-lowest opponent total in franchise history and kept the Bears run offense from getting a first down for only the fourth time in franchise record books. As part of the domi-nating defensive performance, DE Cameron Jordan record-ed two sacks to move into sole possession for third place on the club’s all-time list past Pat Swilling.

Offensively, RB Latavius Murray rushed for 119 yards and two touchdowns, New Orleans’ first 100-yard rusher of the season. He added 31 yards on five receptions for 150 total yards from scrimmage. Bridgewater improved his touch-down pass-interception on the season to 9-2, throwing scoring throws to TE Josh Hill and QB Taysom Hill. WR Michael Thomas had nine receptions for 131 yards (14.6 avg.). Bridgewater competed 23 of 38 passes for 281 yards and a 100.9 passer rating.

New Orleans jumped out to a 9-0 lead on a safety from a J.T. Gray blocked punt and a Bridgewater-Hill TD con-nection. The Bears took the lead early in the second quar-ter on Eddy Pineiro’s 46-yard field goal but New Orleans took the lead for good on a 39-yard kick by Wil Lutz, his NFL-record 35th consecutive road field goal. That was the start of 27 unanswered points by New Orleans.

THE COACHES

New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton has posted a 143-86 overall record (.625), including an 8-7 postseason mark after the franchise had won only one playoff game prior to his arrival in 2006. Payton holds both the club’s top victory total and winning percentage. Payton is currently ranked 25th all-time in National Football League record books in victories, fifth among active head coaches. He continues to represent the Saints as the model of stability not only within the NFC South, as he is the longest tenured head coach within the division, but also among the most accomplished within the NFL. Only the Patriots’ Bill Bel-ichick (2000) has been with the his team longer than Pay-ton’s 15 seasons. Payton is also one of just eight active National Football League head coaches to lead a team to a Super Bowl victory. The others are Belichick, the Seattle Seahawks’ Pete Carroll, the Las Vegas Raiders’ Jon Gru-den (Buccaneers in 2002), the Baltimore Ravens’ John

Harbaugh, the Dallas Cowboys’ Mike McCarthy (Green Bay in 2010), the Philadelphia Eagles’ Doug Pederson and the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Mike Tomlin. The 2019 Saints edi-tion posted their second consecutive 13-3 regular season record, capturing their third consecutive NFC South title and playoff berth. A franchise-record six players were se-lected to Associated Press All-Pro and a club-best 11 were named to the Pro Bowl. New Orleans won seven games on the road for the second consecutive season. The Saints set an NFL single-season record with only eight turnovers as they ranked second in the league in turnover ratio (+15). New Orleans also ranked third in sacks (51), tied for third in scoring (28.6 ppg.) and ranked fourth in opponent rushing yards per game. Special teams captured first place in NFL writer Rick Gosselin’s annual comprehensive rankings. Payton earned a bachelor’s degree in communications at Eastern Illinois, where as a quarterback he had 10,665 passing yards, at the time the third-highest total in NCAA Division I-AA history. Payton was inducted into the Eastern Illinois Hall of Fame in September of 2000 and had his jer-sey retired in a ceremony in September of 2010. He re-ceived an honorary doctorate from his alma mater in 2013. Payton was born Dec. 29, 1963 in San Mateo, Calif., and raised in Naperville, Ill., Payton has a daughter, Meghan and a son, Connor.

Chicago Head Coach Matt Nagy is in his third season at the helm for the Bears after being hired on January 8, 2018 as the 16th head coach in club history. Nagy guided the bears to their first playoff appearance since 2010 in his first season in 2018. He joined the Bears with 10 seasons of coaching experience in the National Football League with the Kansas City Chiefs (2013-17) and Philadelphia Eagles (2008-12). Nagy was promoted to offensive coordinator in Kansas City in 2017 after spending 2016 as co-offensive coordinator with Brad Childress. He served as quarter-backs coach his first three seasons in Kansas City. In Phil-adelphia, Nagy served as the Eagles’ quality control coach (2011-12) and was a coaching assistant (2010), after get-ting his start as a coaching intern with the Eagles (2008-2009). A standout quarterback at Delaware, Nagy was a quarterback in the Arena Football League for the New York Dragons (2002), Carolina Cobras (2004), Georgia Force (2005-06) and Columbus Destroyers (2007-08). He began coaching at the high school level, as an assistant at Man-heim Central (2001), quarterbacks coach at Cedar Crest (2002-03) and offensive coordinator at Palmyra Area High School (2008-09). Born April 24, 1978 in Plainfield, New Jersey, he and his wife Stacey have four sons: Brayden, Tate, Jaxon and Jett.

WEEK 1: Saints 34, Buccaneers 23; September 13, 2020 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – Drew Brees and Tom Brady, the two leading passers in National Football League history, couldn't muster vintage performances in the first NFL game featuring two starting quarterbacks in their 40s.

But while Brees avoided game-turning mishaps with an offense he's led since 2006, Brady suffered some costly cross-ups with his new team. Brady threw two interceptions in his Tampa Bay debut, Alvin Kamara scored touchdowns running and receiving, and the New Orleans Saints beat the Buccaneers 34-23 on Sunday.

“I made some just bad, terrible turnovers,” Brady said. "I obviously have got to do a lot better job.”

The first of Brady’s interceptions led to Kamara’s six-yard touchdown run. The second pick thrown by the new, 43-year-old Bucs QB — who left the Patriots in free agency after 20 years and six Super Bowl triumphs — was re-turned 36 yards for a touchdown by Janoris Jenkins.

“Win the turnover battle like we did, have a turnover for a touchdown, you’re a 90-something percent winner in those games,” Saints coach Sean Payton said. ”Just a lot of things happened in that game that despite how you play, those things can help you win games. The energy and ef-fort I was pleased with.”

The 41-year-old Brees passed for 160 yards and two TDs. He did not turn the ball over and took only one sack. His first TD pass was a dump-off to Kamara from 12 yards out. In the fourth quarter he hit free-agent signing Emmanuel Sanders for a 5-yard score.

“I’d probably say I played awful,” Brees said. “Certainly, we are used to playing at a much higher level offensively and especially in the passing game. So, we’ll get that back on track.”

Still, Brees found satisfaction in beating Brady's Bucs.

“Of course, it’s significant and it’s unique and I’d be lying to you if I said to you it didn’t mean a little bit more," Brees said. "I've got so much love and respect for (Brady) and what he’s able to accomplish.

“We played against each other in college, for goodness sake, in 1999,” Brees continued. “At the end of the day, I think we’d both pinch ourselves if you told us back then we’d have the opportunity to play this long and be a part of so many great teams and moments, historic moments.”

Few witnessed this latest bit of history in person, with gov-ernment leaders and the Saints having agreed that no fans should attend the opener amid the coronavirus pandemic.

That turned the normally deafening Superdome into more of an echo chamber. When Wil Lutz’s field goal put New Orleans up 17-7, the squeaking of pulleys could be heard as the net behind the goalpost was lowered.

Brady compared the environment to “a scrimmage.”

“But obviously, it counts,” he added. “We’ve got to look each other in the eye and all work harder, put more urgen-cy on the things we have to do.”

Tight end Jared Cook caught five passes for 80 yards for New Orleans, highlighted by a 46-yard reception down the left side that set up Sanders' TD.

Brady was 15 of 28 passing for 157 yards and one TD through the first 54 minutes. He padded his numbers in garbage time, finishing with 239 yards and two TDs, the second scoring strike going to Mike Evans with 2:41 left.

Tampa Bay's opening drive was promising for Brady, who the Bucs hope can lead them to their first playoff appear-ance since the 2007 season.

He lofted a 26-yard completion to Chris Godwin along the right sideline, drew a pass interference penalty with a 22-yard attempt to Mike Evans and capped the drive with a 2-yard keeper, after which he emphatically spiked the ball.

It was a fleeting, triumphant moment for the Bucs in a game defined more, in the end, by their new star's mis-takes.

FORTUITOUS MOVES

The Saints saw two players activated from the practice squad come up with big special teams plays. Defensive end Margus Hunt blocked a 54-yard field goal attempt. Re-ceiver Bennie Fowler recovered a muffed kickoff at the Tampa Bay 18 in the fourth quarter, setting up a 21-yard field goal that made it 34-17 with 8:01 left.

WEEK 2: Las Vegas Raiders 34, Saints 24; September 21, 2020 @ Allegiant Stadium – After being in control of the contest with a 17-7 lead, the Saints got caught in a hail-storm of a comeback in the desert debut of the National Football League in Las Vegas, where the Raiders scored 24 consecutive points in the final three quarters in a loss that dropped New Orleans to 1-1. Despite struggles on of-fense, New Orleans seemed to be inching back early in the fourth quarter when CB P.J. William recovered a fumble by Raiders QB Derek Carr at the Saints 40-yard line. But New Orleans could not get past the Las Vegas 47 and Carr then engineered a ten-play, 89-yard drive that ended with a 20-yard rushing touchdown by RB Jalen Richard.

Carr completed 28-of-38 passes for 282 yards, three touch-downs, zero interceptions and a 120.7 passer rating, de-spite being sacked three times.

New Orleans held Las Vegas scoreless on their first two possessions, including one late in the first quarter where DT David Onyemata sacked Carr on third down to get the Saints defense off the field. But some of the momentum quickly changed when the Raiders forced a three-and-out. Carr led Las Vegas on a 11-play, 63-yard drive that ended with a three-yard touchdown pass to FB Alec Ingold. The club’s then traded touchdowns, but Raiders K Daniel Carl-son booted a 28-yard field goal as time expired at the half to tie the score

On the fifth play from scrimmage of the third quarter, Raid-ers TE Foster Moreau had a 31-yard grab from Carr to set up a one-yard touchdown throw to TE Darren Waller. Once the Saints got the ball back, their only drive of the third quarter was stunted at the Las Vegas 43-yard line by 35 yards. Following Richard’s fourth quarter touchdown, New

Orleans would match it with a three-yard rushing touch-down by RB Alvin Kamara. On Las Vegas’ next drive, Carl-son kicked a 54-yard field goal, set up by a 29-yard pass interference penalty assessed to CB Janoris Jenkins.

WEEK 3: Green Bay Packers 37, Saints 30; September 27, 2020 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints battled back from four deficits to tie the score at 27-27 on the final play from scrimmage in the fourth quarter on a spectacular 52-yard touchdown reception by RB Alvin Kamara, then stopped Green Bay on downs near mid-field to put themselves in position to take a fourth quarter lead. But a fumble that set up a field goal, hurt New Orle-ans’ momentum, as well as three defensive penalties on Green Bay’s drive, proving to be the difference in the Pack-ers’ win.

In a contest that featured seven different lead changes, New Orleans tied the score on the last play from scrim-mage of the third quarter at 27-27 when Kamara took a screen pass from QB Drew Brees and slithered and broke multiple tackles for the career-long 52-yard receiving touch-down, also moving into first place in franchise history in multiple-score contests (16). S Malcolm Jenkins and CB Marshon Lattimore then combined to stop Packers RB Aaron Jones on a fourth-and-one near midfield. Follow-ing a seven-yard rush by RB Latavius Murray, QB Taysom Hill fumbled on an option play as it was forced and re-covered by Green Bay LB Z’Darius Smith, setting up a 49-yard field goal by K Mason Crosby. On Green Bay’s final drive, with the Packers up 30-27 and third-and-three, LB Demario Davis jumped offsides, giving QB Aaron Rodg-ers a free play. On it, CB Janoris Jenkins was as-sessed a defensive pass interference penalty at the New Orleans one-yard line, exhausting New Orleans’ hopes.

Kamara had a huge performance, setting career-highs in both receiving yardage and touchdown receptions with 13 grabs for 139 yards and two scores, adding 58 rushing yards on 12 carries for 187 total yards from scrimmage. Brees completed 29-of-36 passes for 288 yards with three touchdown throws, zero interceptions and a 127.8 passer rating.

Rodgers completed 21-of-32 passes for 283 yards with three touchdown passes, zero interceptions and a 124.9 passer rating. Green Bay WR Allen Lazard recorded six catches for 146 yards with one touchdown, including a ca-reer-long 72-yard grab. Packers RB Aaron Jones rushed 16 times for 69 yards with one touchdown, as the Saints did not surrender 100 yards rushing to a player for the 45th consecutive regular season/postseason contest, now tied for the third-longest streak in National Football League rec-ord books.

WEEK 4: New Orleans Saints 35, Detroit Lions 29, Oc-tober 4, 2020 at Ford Field- The Saints came away with a convincing win against the Lions, showcasing their run game versatility, dominant defense and effective passing game, scoring 35 unanswered points.

The Lions offense put up two touchdowns within the first five minutes of play, displaying an early 14-0 lead against the Saints. The Detroit defense came up with an intercep-tion on the Saints’ first play, to put them in prime field posi-tion. QB Matthew Stafford found targets RB D’Andre Swift and WR Kenny Golladay during their first scores.

QB Drew Brees and the Saints offense overcame the two-touchdown deficit, going into the half with a 28-14 lead.

RBs Alvin Kamara and Latavius Murray took command of the run game, splitting up touches throughout the game. New Orleans had a total 164 yards rushing, Kamara with 19 carries for 83 yards (4.4 yd avg) and Murray with 14 carries for 64 yards (4.6 yd avg). The run game capitalized in the red zone, exhibiting Kamara’s seventh touchdown this season, as well as two rushing scores from Murray.

Brees and the passing offense were consistent through-out the contest, with two stand out targets, WR Emmanuel Sanders and WR Tre’Quan Smith. Brees threw for a total of 246 yards, two touchdowns and went 19 for 25. Sanders led the team in receiving, during a breakout game with 6 receptions for 93 yards, his season high. Brees con-nected with Smith twice in the endzone, giving him (Smith) a total of 4 receptions for 54 yards.

The Saints offense went 5-5 in the red zone against the Lions defense.

DE Cameron Jordan, DT David Onyemata and DE Trey Hendrickson led the pass rush, each coming up with one sack apiece. CB Patrick Robinson forced a critical turnover, picking off Stafford in the end zone in the second quarter.

• New Orleans’ defense was steady on all aspects. The Saints’ run defense held the Lions to 90 yards rushing and only allowed a season-low 281 total yards, the first time they gave up under 300 yards this season. Surrendering only 36 yards rushing to Lions RB Adrian Peterson, New Orleans has not allowed an opposing running back to reach the century mark for their last 46 regular season and postseason games, the third-longest streak in the National Football League.

• Kamara scored a touchdown for the sixth consecutive regular season game dating back to 2019, tying the fran-chise mark for consecutive contests with a score.

• Jordan’s sack gives him four against Detroit, tying the

franchise for fourth among teams on his list of sack victims.

• The victory improved New Orleans’ all-time regular sea-son record vs. Detroit to 13-12-1, increasing the number of clubs they have a winning record against to nine.

• Sean Payton now has 141 career wins in regular sea-son/postseason combined, moving him into a tie with John Fox for 25th all-time in NFL record books.

WEEK 5: New Orleans Saints 30, Los Angeles Chargers 27, October 4, 2020 at Mercedes-Benz Super-dome- Wil Lutz kicked a 36-yard field goal with 5:08 left in overtime and New Orleans' defence stopped Chargers re-ceiver Mike Williams just short on fourth down to preserve a 30-27 victory over seemingly star-crossed Los Angeles on Monday night.

Chargers kicker Michael Badgley, who missed his first career point-after kick wide right in the first quarter, had a chance to redeem himself after Williams' leaping catch be-tween two defenders put the Chargers on the Saints' 32-yard line in the final seconds. But Badgley's 50-yard kick as time expired bounced off the right upright.

"The young man has been kicking outstanding. He's got to do better but we could have done some other things bet-ter," Chargers coach Anthony Lynn said.

Drew Brees rushed for a 1-yard touchdown and hit tight end Jared Cook for a 41-yard score as the Saints rallied from a 17-point deficit in the second quarter.

"This is how you grow as a team," Brees said. "This is how you become battle-tested — and I think it pays divi-dends."

Rookie Justin Herbert's fourth touchdown pass of the game, a 64-yarder to Michael Williams, briefly put Los An-geles back in front before the Saints (3-2) tied it on Taysom Hill's nine-yard run with 52 seconds remaining in regula-tion.

The Chargers (1-4) fell to their fourth straight loss by a touchdown or less, and the second in overtime. They also blew a 17-point lead for a second straight game.

"Never thought this team would lose four straight. We've put ourselves in position, but we didn't get it done," Lynn said. "We have to finish these damn games."

Herbert, who was named the starter for the remainder of the season this week, finished 20 of 34 for 264 yards with-out an turnover. Five of his completions went to Williams for 109 yards and two TDs.

Brees finished 33 of 47 for 325 yards, including 12 com-pletions to wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders for 122 yards, as his 13 career overtime wins a starting quarterback broke a tie with Tom Brady since it was instituted in the 1974 sea-son. Kamara had 119 yards from scrimmage, highlighted by his leaping, juggling catch along the right sideline over the head of safety Rayshawn Jenkins to set up Hill's tying TD.

In Week Four, it was Tampa Bay's Tom Brady, a six-time Super Bowl winner. This week it was Brees — the NFL's all-time leader in completions, yards and touchdowns.

Brees' dive over a pile of linemen at the goal line made it 20-10 14 seconds before halftime.

Lutz' 53-yard field goal pulled New Orleans within a touchdown in the third quarter. Then Brees found Cook open behind the Chargers' secondary on third-and-long to tie it early in the fourth quarter.

In staking Los Angeles to an early 20-3 lead, Herbert became the first rookie to pass for three TDs in the first half of a Monday night game.

His first came when he rolled right away from pressure and fired a 17-yard pass down the sideline to Allen.

Herbert's 49-yard completion to Jalen Guyton set up his 4-yard scoring strike to Williams one play later. The touch-down capped a drive extended by a roughing-the-punter penalty against New Orleans' Dwayne Washington.

Nasir Adderly's interception of Brees and 39-yard return to the Saints 1-yard line set up Herbert's three-yard scoring pass to tight end Hunter Henry, which made it 20-3.

WEEK 7: New Orleans Saints 27, Carolina Panthers 24, October 25, 2020 at Mercedes-Benz Superdome– The New Orleans Saints earned a hard-fought 27-24 victory over the Carolina Panthers with 3,000 fans in attendance for the first time this season at the Mercedes-Benz Super-dome on Sunday, Oct. 25

Saints quarterback Drew Brees found a rhythm on the opening possession, driving 75 yards which ended with a four-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jared Cook. The score marked the first time the Saints have scored a touch-down on the opening possession of a game in the 2020 season.

With two of his top targets inactive for the contest, Brees relied on rookie wide receiver Marquez Callaway, wide re-ceiver/return specialist Deonte Harris, wide receiver

Tre’Quan Smith and running back Alvin Kamara in the passing game. Star receivers Michael Thomas (hamstring) and Emmanuel Sanders (Covid-19) were absent. Thomas hasn’t played since the team’s opening week win over Tampa Bay.

Brees completed 29-of-36 passes for 387 yards and two scores. In a standout performance, Callaway hauled in eight catches for 75 yards. The Saints were 12 of 14 on third down and never punted.

The Saints rushing attack, led by Kamara and Latavius Murray, combined for 130 yards on the ground. Kamara also notched eight receptions for 65 yards. After a 16-yard grab in the second half, Kamara joined Roger Craig and Christian McCaffrey as the only players with at least 2,500 rushing and 2,500 receiving yards in their first four seasons in NFL history.

While the New Orleans defense had some struggles, de-fensive end Marcus Davenport stepped up when it mat-tered most. Davenport sacked former Saints Teddy Bridge-water for a eight-yard loss with two minutes remaining, knocking Carolina out of reasonable field goal range. Joey Slye attempted a 65-yard field goal to tie the game, but just came up short.

“I thought the sack on third down was critical,” Saints Head Coach Sean Payton said during his postgame press conference. “It put them in a much different position. It was a good win.”

Bridgewater, who played two seasons with the Saints before joining Carolina this season, completed 23-of-28 passes for 254 yards, including a 74-yard touchdown strike to wideout D.J. Moore.

Following Sunday’s game, New Orleans will then return to action, staying on the road and travel to Raymond James Stadium to play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, November 8 at 7:20 p.m. CT. The contest will be nationally broadcast on NBC’s Sunday Night Football with first place in the NFC South between the Buccaneers and Saints po-tentially on the line. The Saints lead the regular season series 36-21, including a 34-23 win over the Buccaneers in the season opener for both clubs on September 13 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome as the Saints will be looking for their second consecutive series swee9. New Orleans has a four-game winning streak over the Buccaneers at the moment. The matchup between New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees and Tampa Bay signal-caller Brady will pit the league’s all-time leaders in nearly every statistical catego-ry.

OWNING THE MONTH

After the October 25 27-24 victory over the Panthers, the Saints closed out a 3-0 October for 2020 and are on a 15-game winning streak for the month overall, dating to a 25-20 win over the Seattle Seahawks on October, 30-2016. Payton has posted a 40-13 record in the month of October, dating back to his first season in 2006. New Orleans has also won 17 consecutive home games in the month of Oc-tober, a streak dating back to a 20-10 victory over the Pitts-burgh Steelers on October 31, 2010.

ON THIS DATE IN SAINTS HISTORY

The New Orleans Saints have posted a 3-3 record in con-tests played on November 1, the date of their meeting with the Chicago Bears and also the date in 1966 that the Na-

tional Football League franchise was awarded to New Orle-ans. The victory in 1987 served as springboards to two of the most successful campaigns in franchise history and the 2015 shootout was one of the most offensively prolific con-tests in NFL record books.

November 1

1970 - The Saints lose to the Los Angeles Rams, 32-14 at Tulane Stadium, in the final game of inaugural head coach Tom Fears’ tenure.

1981 - The Saints lose to the Atlanta Falcons 41-10 at the Louisiana Superdome.

1987 - The Saints defeat the Atlanta Falcons 38-0 on the franchise’s 21st birthday at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium, the largest margin of victory in franchise record books at the time. The win was the first in a then-team record nine consecutive triumphs to close out the season.

1992 - A 23-21 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the Louisiana Superdome improved New Orleans to 6-2.

1998 - New Orleans fell to a previously winless Carolina 31-17 at Ericsson Stadium to drop to 4-4.

2015 - The Saints defeat the New York Giants 52-49 to improve to 4-4 in a shootout between Drew Brees and Eli Manning as Brees completed 39-of-50 passes(78.0%) for 505 yards with a club-record seven TDs and a 131.7 rating. His yardage total was the second-highest of his career and the TD pass total tied the NFL-single game record with seven other players as he won NFC Offensive Player of the Week.

SAINTS TEAM CAPTAINS

In a player vote, safety Malcolm Jenkins was added as a defensive team captain in his return to the team for the 2020 season, with the other six returning captains all re-elected. Quarterback Drew Brees is a 14-time offensive team captain, punter Thomas Morstead has been a team captain since 2013 and defensive end Cameron Jordan since 2015. Left tackle Terron Armstead, linebackers De-mario Davis (defensive) and Craig Robertson (special teams) round out the group.

Ahead is a synopsis of several returning players and new-comers through the draft and free agency to the 2020 Saints offensive line:

Left Tackle Terron Armstead - The club’s first third round draft choice in 2013 out of Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Armstead impressed scouts by running the fastest 40-yard dash time (4.71) by an offensive lineman in the history of the NFL Scouting Combine. He’s opened 77 regular season games and seven postseason contests and has been selected to the Pro Bowl the past two seasons, as well as being select-ed as the club’s 2019 Man of the Year and the team nomi-nee for the NFL’s Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award. Arm-stead has opened all four contests this season

Tackle/Guard Andrus Peat - A first round selection (13th overall) in the 2015 NFL Draft out of Stanford, Peat was considered one of the top college offensive linemen in 2014. In his first six seasons, Peat’s played in 67 games with 62 starts, opening a contest at every position except center. He opened ten contests at left guard in 2019, re-turning to action in Week 17 after missing five contests, being named to the Pro Bowl for the second consecutive season.

Center/Guard Nick Easton - Originally signed as an un-

drafted free agent by the Baltimore Ravens out of Harvard, Easton developed into a starting swing guard/center by his second season and opened 18 contests for Minnesota. The North Carolina native signed with New Orleans in 2019 to provide interior depth and started five consecutive contests at left guard in place of an injured Peat, the final four where the Saints surrendered only three takedowns. Easton has started four games at right guard and one at left guard in 2020.

Right Tackle Ryan Ramczyk - The Black and Gold used their second first round selection in the 2017 NFL Draft to snag Ramczyk out of Wisconsin, viewed by many as one of the best linemen in the entire draft. After opening all 16 games and both postseason contests in 2017 and being selected as a PFWA All-Rookie, he was an AP All-Pro se-lection at right tackle in 2018, not missing an offensive snap in both postseason contests and all 15 regular games at the right tackle position that he played in. Ramczyk opened all 16 regular season games in 2019 to serve as a dominating bookend to Armstead, earning first-team All-Pro honors.

Center/Guard Erik McCoy - New Orleans traded up in the second round of the 2019 NFL Draft to select this standout from Texas A&M, who was a three-year starter, anchoring the middle of the Aggies offensive line. In 2018, he was a team captain who paved the way for the SEC’s leading rusher and in 2019 was the first Saint in franchise history to start at center in Week One, as he ably replaced the retired Max Unger, opening all 16 regular season contests. McCoy has opened the first six contests in 2020. He has not missed an offensive snap.

Guard/Center Cesar Ruiz - The hard-working, talented and intelligent lineman is a perfect fit for New Orleans’ cul-ture with the 24th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft out of the Uni-versity of Michigan. The three-year letterman played in 36 games in his college career, starting his last 31 including the final 26 at center, earning All-Big Ten as a junior in 2019. Ruiz has played at right guard in the last five games, with two starts including in Sunday’s win vs. Carolina, when the Black and Gold gained 415 yards and gave up only one sack..

Guard/Tackle Derrick Kelly II - This 6-5, 320 pound for-mer four-year starter on the Florida State line was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2019, possessing the flexibil-ity to play both tackle and guard. After spending his rookie season on the practice squad, Kelly increased strength in the 2020 offseason and made big strides in training camp, securing a roster spot and serving as a jumbo tight end, as well as a contributor on special teams.

DEFENSIVE DRAFTS

Over the last six NFL Drafts from 2015-20, New Orleans has shown a commitment to improving the defense, spend-ing 18-of-32 picks on that side of the ball. With nine picks in the 2015 NFL Draft, the Saints picked six defensive play-ers, the most taken since New Orleans chose nine defen-sive players in a 12-round selection meeting in 1990. Be-low is an overview of the players selected by New Orleans from 2015-20 on the 53-man roster:

LB Alex Anzalone, Florida (D3b-17) - Selected in the third round (76th overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft, Anzalone posted 53 tackles as a senior through the first eight games before suffering a forearm injury.

LB Zack Baun, Wisconsin (D3a-20) - Selected in the third round (74th overall) of the 2020 NFL Draft, Baun fin-ished his college career with 154 tackles, 15 sacks, two interceptions, one returned for a touchdown, six passes defensed, three forced fumbles and a fumble recovery. The Saints were attracted to his playmaking ability that he dis-played for the Badgers in 2019, when he ranked second in the Big Ten with a 19.5 stops for loss and 12 sacks (second among Power Five linebackers in both categories). Baun’s contributed on special teams and defense the last five contests posting three defensive stops and two cover-age tackles.

DB C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Florida (D4-19) - Possessing

a combination of instincts and speed, this Florida native was a solid value in the fourth round after playing in all 13 games with 12 starts for the Gators in 2018, when he post-ed 71 tackles, three sacks and four interceptions with two brought back for touchdowns. Gardner-Johnson appeared in all 16 contests with seven starts in 2019, recording 46 tackles (35 solo), one interception, eight passes defensed, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery and three special teams stops, adding three stops and a pass defense in the playoff game. He ranks third on the team with 30 stops (27 solo) in 2020.

DE Trey Hendrickson, Florida Atlantic (D3c-17) - This third round draft choice in the 2017 NFL Draft (103rd over-all) out of Florida Atlantic brought his raw talent, size, strength and speed to a youthful Saints defensive line. Hendrickson was ranked third on the team with a career-high 4.5 sacks in 2019, adding one more takedown in the postseason. Hendrickson picked up where he left off in 2020, leading the team with 4.5 sacks.

CB Marshon Lattimore, Ohio State (D1a-17) - The 11th overall selection in the 2017 NFL draft out of Ohio State and the first corner taken possesses all the traits of a lock-down defender. With his agile, fluid style, Lattimore has the ability to shut down the best wide receivers. . For the 2017 season, he finished with 53 stops, five picks, to lead NFL rookies and the Saints, tying a team rookie record, a club-best 18 passes defensed, a forced fumble and a recovery. Lattimore was the first Saints corner selected to the Pro Bowl since 1995 and was selected as AP Defensive Rook-ie of the Year. His five takeaways (two interceptions and three fumble recoveries) in 2018 led the team, adding two more picks in the NFC Divisional Playoff win. In the Sept. 22 win at Seattle, Lattimore led New Orleans with a career-high 12 tackles (career-high ten solo). For his efforts in 2019, Lattimore was selected to his second Pro Bowl after posting a club-best 14 passes defensed. He leads the cor-nerbacks with 27 tackles (21 solo) and one pass defensed.

DT David Onyemata, Manitoba (D4-16) - Possessing a unique combination of size and speed, this Nigeria native had an impressive rookie year after becoming the first play-er from the University of Manitoba to be drafted into the NFL. Despite being new to football, the 2016 fourth round draft pick became a critical member on the interior of the Saints defensive front in 2017, playing in all 16 games with six starts, making 40 tackles and two sacks. Onyemata had a career-high 4.5 sacks in 2018, including a single-game career best three takedowns in at Dallas/ Onyemata pro-vided a punch for the Saints defense, having started all 15 games that he has played in and recording 32 stops and three sacks to tie for fourth on the team, while being a key run-stopping cog to the NFL’s fourth-ranked rush defense, being re-signed to a three-year contract in the offseason.

DE Marcus Davenport, Texas-San Antonio (D1-18) - Davenport joined the Saints with the 14th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft after showing potential and production as a pass rusher at Texas-San Antonio. In four seasons, Daven-port posted 22 sacks, including 8.5 in 2017 when he cap-tured Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year. Dav-enport’s strength on the line is a valuable asset for the Saints front, playing an important role in the club’s packag-es in 2018, recording 4.5 sacks. Davenport posted six sacks in 13 games. After missing the first four games with injuries in 2020, he returned in Week Five and in Week Seven, his sack of Carolina QB Teddy Bridgewater in the fourth quarter forced an unsuccessful 65-yard field goal attempt.

S Marcus Williams, Utah (D2-17) - A three-year starter at the University of Utah, Williams was twice named All-Pac 12 and earned second-team All-American as a junior when he tied for second in the conference with five interceptions.

An experienced starter from Florida State, who developed into one of the nation’s top cover corners, in 2019, he made 41 stops, a sack, an interception, three passes defensed and one special teams stop, serving as the team’s nickel corner for the second straight season. In the Dec. 22, 2019 win at Tennessee, Williams further showed his versatility by making the switch to safety after Marcus Williams was forced to depart with a groin injury and then starting in Williams’ place in the regular season finale at Carolina. Williams was re-signed in the offseason by the club, and has posted nine tackles and one fumble recovery in both contests, seeing action at both cornerback and safety with one start.

The Saints produced their most impressive run-stopping effort in several seasons in 2018 and carried it over in 2019. In seven straight games in 2018, they didn’t surren-der 100 rushing yards to an opponent for the first time since 2007. Below are the longest streaks in team history the defense has gone without surrendering 100 yards. New Orleans hasn’t allowed a 100-yard rusher in a club-record 49 straight games (regular season and postseason), the third-longest streak in NFL history. In holding Panthers RB Mike Davis to 12 yards on Sunday, New Orleans’ efforts produced dominant results as his rushing total was the low-est for a leading rusher in a contest for an opponent during this streak. If the Saints keep Chicago’s individual rushers under 100 on Sunday, they will move into a tie for the sec-ond-longest streak in NFL record books.

JUST KICKING IT

Between deep touchdown passes and athletic intercep-tions, players often use their hands to produce the game’s flashiest plays. However, players using their feet make the difference between winning and losing, drilling clutch field goals or flipping the field with a well-executed punt.

K Wil Lutz went undrafted in 2016, joining the Ravens for training camp. Prior to the start of the regular season, Lutz joined the Black and Gold and immediately took on placekicking and kickoff duties. Lutz has kicked in 69 games, converting 128-of-145 field goal attempts (88.3 percent) and 214-of-220 PATs. He’s recorded 265 touch-backs on 398 career kickoffs. His 88.3 percent field goal percentage is best among kickers with at least 50 made field goals in team history. Until the 2018 regular season finale, he’d kicked a field goal in a club-record 36 consecu-tive games, second-longest streak in NFL history

With his first field goal on Oct. 20, 2019 at Chicago, Lutz set the NFL record for consecutive road field goals.

SWISS ARMY KNIFE

QB Taysom Hill, in his fourth season with the club, has brought unheralded versatility to the Saints on offense and special teams. A participant on virtually every special teams unit except field goal and PAT, as well as the back-up signal-caller and as a runner and receiver on offense, in the 2018 regular season, Hill averaged 24.9 yards per re-turn on 14 kickoff returns, had six coverage stops to rank second on the team, completed a ten-yard pass on a fake punt in Week Four and blocked a punt, Dec. 9 at Tampa Bay. Overall in 2018, Hill carried 37 times for 196 yards (5.3 avg.), ranked third on the team with two touchdowns and completed three of seven passes for 64 yards. The blocked punt earned him Week 14 NFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors. In the 2018 postseason, he caught a touchdown, made a special teams tackle and ex-ecuted a successful fake punt.

In 2019, Hill appeared in every contest, carrying 27 times for 156 yards (5.8 avg.) with one touchdown, catching 19 passes for 234 yards with six touchdowns, deflecting a punt, returning one kickoff for 12 yards and posting two coverage stops.

COVERAGE/BLOCK UNITS

New Orleans’ coverage units have been led the past three seasons by linebacker Craig Robertson, DB J.T. Gray, Hill and defensive back Justin Hardee Sr..

Hardee led the team with nine stops and a blocked punt recovered for a touchdown as a rookie in 2017. In 2018, Hardee led the team with a career-high ten stops, with Hill ranked second with six. He posted five tackles in 2019 and leads the club with four stops in 2020 as New Orleans ranks first in the NFL in opponent punt return average (2.5) and seventh in the league in opponent kickoff return aver-age (18.1).

Robertson, one of the club’s special teams captains, also made a big play in the November 4, 2019 win over the Los Angeles Rams when he stopped Rams holder Johnny Hecker short of the first down marker on a fake field goal attempt. He did the same on December 23, 2018 vs. Pitts-burgh in a crucial fourth quarter situation to snuff out a fake punt attempt. Robertson posted his first special teams stop of 2020 on Sunday vs. Carolina and has been voted as a captain of the coverage units for the third consecutive season.

In another addition to the club’s special teams units, Gray led the team in 2019 with 17 stops, blocked a punt and recovered a fumble on a muffed punt as he was selected an AP second-team All-Pro. Gray has two stops in 2020

Special teams played a key role in the team’s season opening 34-23 win over Tampa Bay on September 13. Two players called up from the practice squad the day be-fore made a significant impact, WR Bennie Fowler III and DL Margus Hunt. Early in the fourth quarter with New Orle-ans leading 31-17, the Saints took advantage of a face-mask penalty on New Orleans’ prior touchdown to have it assessed on the kickoff. Fowler then recovered a muffed return on a short kickoff at the Tampa Bay 18-yard line to help set up a Lutz field goal. Late in the second quarter

with New Orleans leading 14-7, the 6-9 Hunt blocked a 54-yard field goal attempt to eventually put Lutz in position to drill a 29-yard field goal. Morstead captured NFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors, punting six times for a 44.0 net punting average with five punts inside the 20.

Special teams also played a key role in the team’s Oct. 12 30-27 overtime win over the Chargers. Lutz was a perfect three-of-three, booting field goals of 48, 53 and 36 yards. His shortest came in overtime to give New Orleans their first lead of the contest as he was named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week. Rookie WR Marquez Callaway filled in for an injured Deonte Harris in the return game and brought back six punts for 69 yards and returned two kick-offs for 57 yards. In overtime, RB Alvin Kamara’s 31-yard kickoff return gave New Orleans favorable starting field position at their 34-yard line for the game-winning drive.

RETURN UNITS

Wide receiver/return specialist Deonte Harris has made an impact on New Orleans’ return game since being picked up an undrafted free agent in 2019.

SAINTS POSTGAME NOTES

With the win, the Saints improve to 4-2 on the season and have won three consecutive games. New Orleans returns to action on Sunday, November 1 when they take on the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Kickoff is set for 3:25 p.m. CT on Fox.

With the victory, New Orleans’ all-time record against the Panthers improves to 26-25 in the regular season and 13-13 in regular season home games. New Orleans has now won three consecutive games against Carolina.

With the win, New Orleans improves its overall home regular season record to 206-206-1, including games played at Tulane Stadium, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, Giants Stadium (2005), San Antonio’s Alamodome (2005), Tiger Stadium (2005), and Wembley Stadium (2008). New Orleans’ record improves to 77-39 in regular season home games since 2006.

New Orleans has now won 15 consecutive games in the month of October, dating back to a 25-20 victory over the Seattle Seahawks on October 30, 2016. New Orleans has also won 17 consecutive home games in the month of October, a streak dating back to a 20-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on October 31, 2010.

With the victory, HC Sean Payton improves his regular season record against Carolina to 15-12. In their first meeting, Panthers HC Matt Rhule becomes the 68th (of 82) coach Payton has defeated in his career and 58th that Payton holds a winning record against.

The victory is Payton’s 50th regular season NFC South win of his career and improves his record in division games to 50-30. During Payton’s tenure, former Panthers (2011-19) and current Washington HC Ron Rivera is next with 26 NFC South victories.

Offensively, New Orleans amassed over 400 total yards for the third time this season, finishing with 415 total yards on 277 yards passing and 138 yards rushing. New Orleans possessed the ball for 34:31 and have had at least 34 minutes time of possession in each of their last three games.

New Orleans began the game with their longest opening drive of the season. The 14-play, 75-yard drive used the first 8:26 of the game and resulted in a four-yard touchdown pass from Drew Brees to Jared Cook.

Defensively, New Orleans held Carolina to a season-low 283 yards, including 246 passing yards and 37 rushing yards. 37 is the fewest rushing yards New Orleans has allowed since holding Tampa Bay to 36 yards on eight rushing attempts on November 17, 2019. New Orleans also extended its league-leading streak to 48 games without surrendering 100 rushing yards to a single player.

QB Drew Brees became the first player in NFL history to reach 7,000 career completions, finishing the game 29-of-36 passing for 287 yards and two touchdowns. Brees also became the first player in NFL history to eclipse 79,000 yards passing in his career.

Brees has now played in 281 games in his career, which moves him into a tie with LS Trey Junkin for 20th in NFL record books. In his 281st game, Brees rushed for the 25th touchdown of his career, 16 of which have been one-yard rushing scores.

Finishing with 65 receiving yards on eight receptions, RB Alvin Kamara became the third player in NFL history with at least 2,500 rushing and 2,500 receiving yards in their first four NFL seasons, joining Roger Craig and Christian McCaffrey. With 289 career receptions, Kamara moves into the top-10 in club record books, surpassing RB Tony Galbreath (284) for tenth in all-time receptions for New Orleans. With five more receptions, Kamara will surpass RB Reggie Bush for ninth in club record-books.

Kamara also tied his season-best with 83 rushing yards on 14 carries. Kamara has surpassed 100 total yards in each of the New Orleans’ last five games.

Rookie WR Marquez Callaway recorded his best game as a pro, finishing with eight receptions for a team-leading 75 yards. Callaway also caught Brees’ 7,000th career completion on an eight-yard reception with 1:08 to play in the first quarter.

WR Deonte Harris recorded his first career touchdown reception and became the 71st player and 55th New Orleans Saint to catch a touchdown pass from Drew Brees on a four-yard reception with five seconds remaining the first half. Harris finished the game with four reception for 46 yards and the one score.

Entering the game with 598 career points, K Wil Lutz scored his 600th career point on his second extra point conversion of the game. Lutz also scored the game’s only points in the fourth quarter, converting what would end up being the game-winning field goal with 7:53 to play. Lutz finished two-for-two on field goal attempts and three-for-three on extra point attempts and remains perfect on the season, moving his season totals to 11-for-11 on field goal tries and 21-for-21 on extra point conversions.

DE Marcus Davenport recorded his first sack of the season on the Panthers’ final offensive play of the game, taking down Carolina QB Teddy Bridgewater for an eight-yard loss. Carolina attempted a game-tying 65-yard field goal on the next play, which K Joey Slye missed short. In his second game of the season, Davenport finished with two tackles and added one quarterback hit.

DE Cam Jordan made his 150th consecutive appearance for New Orleans, a club record and longest current streak among offensive and defensive players, excluding quarterbacks. With 150 appearances, Jordan surpasses Dave Waymer for 14th on the club’s all-time games played list. Jordan finished the game with two tackles.

TE Jared Cook scored his third touchdown of the season and finished the game with three receptions for 32 yards and the first quarter score. Cook has scored touchdowns in back-to-back games for the fourth time in his two seasons with New Orleans.

WR Tre’Quan Smith recorded four receptions for 54 yards. Smith has recorded at least 50 receiving yards three times through the Saints’ first six games this season, a mark he reached only once in 2019 and twice in 2018.

RB Latavius Murray finished with 11 carries for 47 rushing yards and added one reception for nine yards. Murray has recorded double digit rushing attempts in four of the Saints’ first six games this season, after recording double digit rushes in just four games in the entire 2019 season.

CB Marshon Lattimore finished tied for the team lead with six tackles and has recorded at least six stops in each of his last four appearances. LB Alex Anzalone recorded four tackles and added his second tackle for loss of the season.

FS Marcus Williams entered the game with 197 career tackles and recorded the 200th stop of his career on a takedown of Carolina RB Mike Davis with 3:36 to play in the second quarter. Williams finished tied for the team lead with six tackles.

CB CJ Gardner-Johnson finished with five tackles and added one pass defensive. Through six games, Garnder-Johnson has recorded 30 tackles on the season, a mark that took him 14 games to reach in his rookie season in 2019.

The Saints extend their streak to 294 regular season games without being shut out, the longest such running streak in the NFL and fourth longest all-time. The streak dates back to September 6, 2002 when New Orleans defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 26-20 at Raymond James Stadium.

CAROLINA PANTHERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS SUNDAY OCTOBER 25, 2020 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS QUOTES

HEAD COACH SEAN PAYTON

On how close the last Carolina field goal attempt came to being good: “He (Joey Slye) hit a great kick. I was looking to see the trajectory, because a lot of times you might be able to get your hands on a kick of that length. He has a strong leg. He hit it; and, fortunately for us, it was a couple of yards short. I thought the sack on third down was critical, and it put them in a much different position. It was a good win.”

On Marquez Callaway finding open areas to make plays: “He played well today. If he’s finding open areas, it’s probably because it’s zone. If it’s man (coverage), we are moving. We saw him have a good training camp and we have seen him progress. A handful of guys really stepped up today and played, maybe, a different role than they are used to. That is just part of the deal right now.”

On getting a touchdown before halftime: “Obviously, we would have been happy if it was just a field goal. We were right at the cusp there with five seconds with a possible end zone play. We had leverage outside. Inside, we had leverage. Drew (Brees) did a great job of finding Deonte (Harris). That was probably a game-winning drive and we just didn’t know it at the time.”

On having fans in attendance: “It was good. (It was) a little bit….3,000 (fans). We will keep adding as we go. You certainly felt a little bit more juice in the stadium than normal.”

On the importance of a successful first drive of the game: “I thought we ran the ball well. We kicked a couple too many field goals. I don’t know that we punted. I can’t recall a game where we did not punt. I felt like it went fast, obviously. I don’t know what time that it was on the clock when we hit halftime, but that first half felt like the first quarter. Part of that was both teams were really moving the ball. The opening drive was really important.”

On if time of possession was part of the strategy: “We felt like first and second down was going to be important against this defense and that if we could stay on schedule, our success rate on third down would be that much better. We got into a couple of third and longs, particularly in the second half. Yet, we won a handful of statistics. We didn’t win the turnover statistic, but a lot of the others, we did.”

On what it was like to see Teddy Bridgewater on the other sideline: “I don’t remember him moving that good. He got out of some tough looks. He, obviously, played well. He made a lot of big plays in the passing game. He extended some plays. We had opportunities to (have a) free rusher. We’ve just got to be better in those situations. It’s a much different offense. You can see, obviously, that they are playing with confidence. I think that he had maybe three incompletions the whole day.”

On having a conversation with Teddy Bridgewater on the sideline during the game: “I think that he felt like we had a penalty; and, he was right. And, then, I felt like they (the Panthers) had a penalty; and, I was right. He saw one flag and I saw the other. It was offsetting (penalties) and we had to play the down again. That was all.”

On if he saw improvement of the defense: “We’ve got some work to still do. I think that we played the run extremely well, not so much in the passing game.”

On finding out late in the week that the team would be without both starting receivers: “One thing that we know is that the games are going to be played. There are a couple of other teams dealing with some pretty extreme adversity. Honestly, no one else outside of your building really cares. I am proud of how our guys focused and found a way to get the win.”

On the importance of sacking Teddy Bridgewater on the finals Panthers drive: “Based on the field goal attempt that I saw, that even if we sacked him with two yards less, there was a good chance that (Carolina’s kick) was going to go in. Obviously, it was a big play defensively. They got in field goal range and all of a sudden that (sack) put them right on the edge. That (sack) was significant (for us).”

CAROLINA PANTHERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2020 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS QUOTES

LB DEMARIO DAVIS

(On making a stop by Marcus Davenport to close out the game): “In this league, you have to find a way to win. We want to be a team that plays complimentary football. When you get to the end of games, you have to find a way. Whether if the offense or the defense is on the field last, you have to rise up and be ready for the challenge. You have to figure out how to do that. That’s going to help us a lot in regards to confidence, motivating and building as we go down the stretch.”

(On what he saw on the Davenport sack): “I was in coverage, so I was looking at my man. I didn’t see what happened.”

(Reaction to the Davenport sack): “That was a big play getting a sack in the sack zone, which is right outside of the red zone. Getting a sack there to knock them out of field goal range was huge. It was a game changer. Carolina chose to kick it from where they were. It was a good kick, but just a little bit short and put us in a position to win the game.

(On Davenport’s difference as a pass rusher): “He’s a great player, big and strong. Our defensive line has been playing lights out this year. We need to be able to stop the run and put pressure on the quarterback and that’s what our defensive line does.”

(On it being a big play for Marcus Davenport): “In this business, guys have been playing at a high level for a long time. Anytime they are not out there with their brothers and performing at a high level like they are used to is tough. It shows his dedication and his work ethic to be back out there and pick up where he left off.”

(On taking pride in the run defense) “The goal is always chasing excellence. We’ve been able to do that in the run game. We wil continue to grow in the pass game. I think the game has evolved to make it a lot easier to pass the ball. Our defensive guys can’t touch players. It’s a lot easier to get holding calls and pass interference calls. There are a lot more concepts to defend. It’s not as easy to be as stingy in the pass game as it once was. Plays are going to happen. I think the best defenses in this league are the ones who get the stop when it matters most. ”

QB DREW BREES

(On scoring a touchdown before halftime): “In the grand scheme of things, that was a huge drive. This was a game where both offenses were doing a great job of staying on the field, converting third downs and eating up the clock. Each one of our drives were 8, 10, 12 or 14 plays. I think when you look back on it we only had six meaningful drives in that game with the exception of the last one when were trying to run the clock out. Those are very few scoring opportunities. Every chance we got to score we needed to put point up on the board. To be able to get seven points there instead of three in rather dramatic fashion with those last few plays end up being a huge turning point in the game.”

(On where he thinks the offense is now) “Obviously, the first six weeks have been challenging in various ways. We’ve had injuries at times and I can’t say enough about the young guys have had to step up. We’ve been without Michael Thomas for five games. Emmanuel (Sanders) was out for this game. Young guys have had to step up and take a role where they are expected to step in to really be able to contribute. I can’t say enough about guys like Marquez Callaway and the job that he did today. Obviously, Tre’Quan Smith who is a mainstay, but we have asked him to do so much stuff. The guys up front with having some injuries at times. Each week it is finding a different way to win. I can’t say enough about the guys’ resolve and resiliency to be able to do that. These last two games especially have come down to the wire and the last drive to find ways to win the game.”

(On working with different guys who were maybe not as big a part of the game plan on Wednesday prior to Sanders being placed on COVID-19/Reserve) “I’ll be honest. It’s difficult. You sit there and look at the call sheet and look at the personnel groups and how you are going to piece it all together and at the end of the day putting them in the right positions to succeed. It all goes through my thought process too. I need to know where guys are. There are little things that I can do throughout the game to help them and instill confidence in them. I just can’t say enough about those guys coming in and stepping up and having the games that they did.”

(On a clean offensive performance) “We strive for proficiency, want to have great balance (and) want to play complimentary football. I felt like we possessed the ball really well. Obviously, the third downs are crucial because it allows you to stay on the field. There were a lot of third and short situations. You get into third and manageable and that means that you were good on first and second down. You can take advantage of little short completions or a run play that’s going to get you three or four yards. Those are good positive plays and that sets you up for success on third down. We got into a couple of third and long situations based on penalties or what have you and we were able to overcome a few of those. Those were huge too because those were drives that resulted in points. Anytime you don’t punt and you are scoring touchdowns and field goals, then that’s a good thing.”

(On Alvin Kamara’s body control) “It’s always pretty amazing. Throughout the course of the game, you probably don’t appreciate it because you are on to the next play. There are not many guys who can do some of the things that he does.

(On the last field goal attempt) “When you say it’s a game of inches or feet, it truly is. That was obviously a huge play by (Marcus Davenport) to set them back and give them that long field goal. When it came off his foot, it was tracking. It fell short. I’m glad that we were able to get the first down and win the game.”

(On Teddy Bridgewater taking a seat between he and Taysom Hill) “That was just so fitting of Teddy’s personality (laughter). He had to run a long way to take that seat. He knew exactly where we were sitting. He plopped in between us. I kind of handed him the Surface and asked him what he saw. I have nothing but love for Teddy. He’s a great quarterback. He is an efficient quarterback. He is highly efficient. He had a ton of completions. He takes care of the football and takes advantage of the opportunities that present themselves down the field. I can’t say enough about him.”

(On having 3,000 fans) “We got some Who Dat chants going. It was good. It’s obviously great to have fans in the building. I would love it if we could have some more. It would be great. It would be great for the team. Certainly, the defense would appreciate getting some crowd noise in there to get the place rocking like it should.”

(On setting the tone with the opening drive) “It was good and efficient. There were three or four first downs in that drive. Everybody did their job executing. It was a great way to start the game. The drive took quite a bit of time and we came out of it with seven points.

RG Cesar Ruiz

When Terron (Armstead) goes out in the second quarter, does that change things for you +as to how you're blocking and how you're communicating with each other? "Not really. It's definitely different when Terron goes out but we all take a lot of us repetitions together and the communication is always there."

How big was that opening drive just getting the ball and going fourteen team plays right off the bat and scoring a touchdown there? "It was big. A long drive to. I didn’t realize that drive was about 10 minutes so it was great to get the ball down there and score on the first job so that's great."

What's the first seven weeks of the season been like for you? I know the injury you had and you missed 21 days and just kind of tried to settle in and get up to speed just what's the process been like for you? "Just grinding every day really. Taking care of my body and stay on top of the little things and try and learn as much I can every single day. Really just being a sponge really just learning and trying to perfect myself every day."

Do you feel like you're still picking a lot of stuff up? I know at this points the offseason was weird and everything. "Yes. I'm still going be picking stuff up until I retire. You're going learn a lot of different things. I am learning a lot different things from different guys. Every time there is something I don't recognize in practice or little things like that. I'm learning from those little things right there."

What did you make a team's composure and execution on third down today? "We took it head on really, on third downs our goal is go get the first down. We didn’t back down from anything, and we went out there and did everything we could to get the first down."

Saints Defensive End Marcus Davenport

On what it was like to sack Teddy Bridgewater: "Getting a sack, especially your first of the season, is always one of those things that you feel like you've got to get out of the way. It was really great to be

able to help out the team, especially in that time (of the game)." On the importance of the sack: "It's one of those things. It's just how if, kind of, played out. Like you said, it was a good point in the game and we won." On what he saw to break through for the sack: "It was just one of those things. We drew it up; and, from there, you just have to execute. That was mainly it."

RB Alvin Kamara

On Carolina's field goal attempt late in the game: "I had a good vantage point. It was a long field goal. Kudos to him (Joey Slye), even though he missed it. He's got a helluva leg. We were, obviously, hoping for a miss. We got the miss. We were able to close out the game." On keeping his foot in bounds on third down: "Yes, I saw the sideline and I just, kind of, took a picture of it and tried to reach the ball. I knew that the defender was coming in. He had a good angle on me to tackle me. I knew that as long as I got the ball across the stick, we’d be good. They reviewed it and didn't have enough evidence (to overturn); and, we got a first down." On the opening drive of the game: "We had a great week of practice. Everybody has a job to do, no matter who is in or who is out. Guys have to step up and execute. That is what happened. We did that and put a good drive together. We did what we had to do. I feel like we did a good job. The guys that stepped up did a good job." On the last drive of the first half: "Two-minute (drives), I’d put us against any defense. We’re locked-in on two-minute. We've got calls that we want to get to. I think that we practice it more than anything. Going in there, we are confident, we know the looks that we want to get to. We just had to execute. We went ahead and drove it down and got a score. That was big before the half." On if the offense is starting to find an identity: "It's just about efficiency. We are being able to run the ball efficiently. We used up the clock. We’re getting the looks in the passing game we want. We’re getting the ball down the field. Everybody’s stepping up; everybody is doing their job. There are still some things that we have to clean up. It's not the best game that we played, but it's a win. Nobody asked how we won or how we lost. They just want to know if it was a win or a loss. We won. There are some things that we have to clean up on the film tomorrow. We will get that cleaned up and move on to the next (game)." On playing in front of fans: "I don't care how many fans (were there). If it was 10, if it was 1,000, if it was 3,000. It's just good to have some people back in there. Everybody is itching to get back into the stadium. Hopefully, the next game we can have 10,000, 20,000. It was just good to see the fans back out there. We enjoy having them as much as they enjoy being here, so it's a huge advantage."

WR Marquez Callaway

How do you feel that you played today especially just knowing you got thrown into the game plan again even bigger than you did last two weeks ago?

“Like Alvin (Kamara) said, next man up mentality. You know, we go into each week practicing, preparing for anything. And that's what happened this week. You know, with Emmanuel (Sanders) going down and Mike (Thomas) not being able to play this week. So, just like Alvin (Kamara) said, next man up. You know, I think Juwan (Johnson) did a great job when he got in there, it's his first play and his first start. And I was happy for him and we just went out there and had fun.”

Are you doing okay after limping to the locker room towards the end of the game?

“Yeah, I'm good. I just got a little dinged up. But, it’s all good. Thank you.”

A lot of people are pointing out on Twitter today that your number 12 is the same number that Marques Colston famously wore for the Saints. I was curious if somebody mentioned that to you early in training camp, since he's like the most famous dark horse to emerge here or if that 12 had any significance to you, knowing you were wearing such a famous Saints players jersey number? When you’d realize that the first time?

“Well obviously everybody knows who he is. And coaches and players, even players told me as soon as I got here when they found out I was wearing number 12. I think the coaches RC (Ronald Curry) and CJ (Curtis Johnson), the receiver coaches, told me it was some big shoes to fill. But, ain’t no backing down, I'm ready to step up to the challenge. And have fun doing it, so.”

It seemed like you did a really good job getting open against their zone coverage and just finding those soft spots? Is that something that's always been the strength of your game? And you know, or is that just more of a function of how the offense was designed?

“We practice for everything, It's a lot of game planning. Coach (Payton) does a lot of, they (he and the assistants) stay up late. Like you said earlier, they stay up late game planning against whoever we have got next. And we go at it each week knowing what we are getting. So we knew this was a big zone team. And we knew it was a lot of zone coverage. So we just went out there with the mindset of them playing zone. So we know how to get open during zone (coverage). And that's just how the game went.”

Do you feel like you're comfortable with Drew (Brees) and how long did it kind of take you to get there if you are?

“I think we click together pretty well. We go with a lot of, all of the quarterbacks, really. With Jameis (Winston) and Taysom (Hill) and Drew (Brees), we work simultaneously with everybody. So it's not just, you know, we go with Drew (Brees). Because like y'all seen, Taysom (Hill) get’s in there and be at quarterback too. So we got to be well with everybody.”

What's it like to have a future Hall of Famer like Drew Brees, having the confidence to call your number in these key moments in these last few weeks?

“It's great knowing that, what Drew has done and what he is doing, and what his future would be like, it’s great learning from him. He obviously, he takes the time and after practice goes over things with Juwan (Johnson) and I, just because we’re younger and we know but we don't really know. So just him, Jameis (Winston) and Taysom (Hill) they take the time after practice to stay after with us to make sure we’re caught up to speed with everything. So they will be confident when the time comes, like they have in these past few weeks.”

I noticed after your second touchdown drive, he (Drew Brees) came over to the receivers huddle on the bench and was going over some things with you, the receiver group. What is going on there? You are just trying to get on the same page?

“Yeah. Like I said, he (Drew Brees) teaches us pretty much all the time. So, what we see when we’re out there, he sees something probably different, he comes in, and that lets us know that we have to do that. Let us know that, ‘hey, maybe we can slide over a little bit more or maybe you can run out the break’, just things like that. So he tells what he sees, so next time we go out there, it will be even more efficient.”

New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton Conference Call with New Orleans Media Monday, October 26, 2020 The two minute offense has been so successful scoring, especially before halftime in these last three games. Obviously, those are valuable possessions, but also how much momentum does that create? How much of a rise is that great for the entire team when you guys are able to successfully do those? “Well, I think specifically yesterday, if you really go through the sequence, we have the sack fumble, they recovered, then they are able to carry down the field and score, they're going to start the second half of the ball. So in yesterday's game, I think it was one of those cases where it shifted momentum clearly. Obviously, a turnover and your offense comes on the field and marches down the field and scores. You hate to finish a half like that, and then come back out on the field and kickoff. And so fortunately, there was enough time left on the clock. I said this, I think yesterday, today, the same way, we didn't know that at the time, but that ended up really being the game winning drive. Especially scoring the touchdown off of that drive, not just a field goal.” What has always made Drew (Brees) so good at that situation in particular? “He processes information very quickly, the ball comes out of his hands. I think he works on it, he pays attention to the coverages he's getting. And he also goes into a game, I just know this because towards the end of the week when we're meeting on it, he just kind of goes into that situation with an idea of a couple calls he wants to get to. And I think there's a confidence level in everyone else in the huddle around someone like him, and that carries over to the drive.” As of the 10 a.m. advisory, New Orleans is scheduled to get a category one hurricane on Wednesday. Have you guys made any plans at this point to potentially do anything differently on Wednesday? “Yeah, nothing yet. We've discussed it. And yet, I would say in the early stages, so we're certainly paying attention to it. And we'll have a plan in the event we feel like it's something that could prohibit our schedule. Hopefully, it's not and yet the one thing about a hurricane different than some other events, having lived in the Midwest or out west, you do get this three, four day advance notice, different than a tornado or an earthquake. And that allows you a little chance to prepare.” In a three-game winning streak, I think Sheldon (Rankins) said this morning that basically your message is always just find a way to win that game. I know a lot of that entails the game plan going in, but how much adjustment is required I guess in game when you are talking about that, where maybe it turns into a shootout? Or maybe it's a little bit more of a low scoring game or just what goes into that? “I think you go in with an idea of how you want to play the game. And sometimes, very quickly, games can be different than you expect. Hopefully, we're always able to see that and stay ahead of it. I thought we came out in the second half and settled down some defensively. It's unusual to play a game and not punt. And I felt like we said it yesterday, the game went fairly quick because, look, there were a lot of long play drives.

I can always tell when I get handed the pictures from the last drive by Kevin (Petry), they're on the tablets, but they're also photographs. And when he's handing me the thick stacks, I know that they're long drives. When he hands you just three page and they’re real light, it was probably a three and out and I thought the first and second down efficiency was going to be important. And ended up being true obviously, on third down the numbers were good, but they can kind of move in certain directions the games do and you just have to pay attention that.” After looking at the film, what happened on that play early in the early in the game on the long touchdown connection between Teddy Bridgewater and D.J. Moore? Was it just another communication error by the defense? “Well, it wasn't as much communication this time as technique and landmarks. Obviously, something we've got to get cleaned up. Dennis (Allen) and I just finished talking about a handful of them. This wasn't as much communication as it was just recognizing the formation, the alignments, and then how to play the coverage on that specific play. It's an area of concern. It's an area that we've got to get better at and I think we will, but it's still something, it's one of those things, you come off a win and you look at the good news is we won, here are some of the things now that that are going to cost us in another game down the road if we don't fix.” Can you explain why you had to call that timeout to start the second quarter, like coming out of the break? “Take me through the sequence again.” It was just right after the second quarter started, like, we're just coming out of the commercial break and like a 15 minute mark of the quarter. “Yeah, I kind of remember it, you don't really see it on film. But I think a lot of it had to do with, certainly I was probably slow getting the call in. And by the time we got out there relative to the motion we needed, I just went over in called the timeout. You don't want to use one like that, but (it’s more attractive) rather than take a delay (of game penalty).” How much of your ability to run the ball effectively in the last few weeks is directly tied to the athleticism of your offensive line? And is the ability to run the ball something that you're, I don't know, sort of figuring out with this team? “Well, look, we, we put a high emphasis and obviously value that part of the game for our team under center in the shotgun. We think we're talented, talented at the running back position and up front the same way. And so, the bigger question each week is, how, you know, what do we feel like we need to do scheme wise and what type of run design do we need to play against the defense we're seeing? You know, and I thought look, especially in the first half I was pleased with how we blocked them and the landmarks we got to. And some of the things that we had gameplanned for. Upfront, we had a couple injuries. Obviously with Nick Easton being out and Terron (Armstead) going out early. We had some guys playing more snaps then used to. And yet, that's our league, I say it all the time, so. But, it's an important part of how we want the game to unfold, relative to what it does for play action, what it does, what it does really for your

third down. You know, if you're running the ball with some effectiveness, those numbers tend to be a little bit shorter than longer.” I know you guys typically tend to try to go after like intelligent players, it's one of the things you look for, but with (Marquez) Callaway in particular. What does that say about him that he stepped in and kind of, understand what you want to do this early in his career and be in that position to make as many plays as he did last yesterday? “He played well and I've been real pleased. We've been pleased with his progress. Normally, you might have had a chance to see him prior to the start of the season and some of the preseason games, but we felt like he had a good training camp. He opened eyes. We received a chance to see him explosively on some plays and it's great to see someone's progress, especially a first-year player in this season. It's encouraging and we’ll continue to build on that.” I think on that first drive guys might have like 11 different personnel packages, was that kind of, I know you guys typically use a lot in a game but was that maybe more so this week, just with the number of guys you had out? “Yes, partly because of that. A lot of times the change, if you will or the combinations of the tight ends, you know, with (Adam) Trautman, (Jared) Cook, Josh Hill and then throw Taysom (Hill) into that rotation. There's four guys that could be used in combinations. And then, obviously at the receiver, so some of it is a byproduct of what we're choosing. It certainly wasn't this week to see what they would do defensively, because defensively, they were pretty consistent with what they were going to be personnel wise. They kind of play a buffalo package. And regardless of what you put out there, they're going to align to it. So it had more to do with just our own players and what we were trying to accomplish than it did, trying to see how they were going to defend it.” What is your level of concern with the secondary right now? Is that a lot? Or are you not that concerned about it? “No it's closer to the a lot than not that concerned about it. I think it has to be. And that's something we'll continue to work on. But yes, we have to eliminate the explosives. Teams are good enough throwing the football where they're going make plays underneath. But in a handful of these games this year, these chunk plays are the ones that, like I said earlier, are going to hurt you in another game, and be the difference rather than you being able to overcome it.” When it comes to the pass defense, how do you feel like you are doing as far as putting pressure on the quarterback? “This past game, we had a couple snaps, (where) we had a free rusher and Teddy (Bridgewater) to his credit came out of it and made a play down the field on third down. I think it was third and long, third and longer, early in the game. And, of course, we got the big sack when we needed it (in the fourth quarter). Obviously we want that to be (where) it goes hand in hand a little bit with the pass coverage. So we feel like that's an area that we can improve on. And, and I think it'll help relative to the first point we were just discussing.”

With some of these coverage busts, why does that happen with some of these guys that have been around for a while and maybe weren't doing it so much in previous years? “That's the $6 million question right now. And we have to get it figured out. It wasn't as big of a challenge a year ago. And yet, it's something that, that’s creeped up right now. And coming off of training camp, I wouldn't have thought that would be such an issue, but it is right now and we're addressing it.” New Orleans Saints Center/Guard Erik McCoy Video Call with New Orleans Media Monday, October 26, 2020 Do you feel you guys have done well to make this three game winning streak? “I would just say going in confident, confident we're going to win the game, going on our plan and executing it.” Sheldon (Rankins) mentioned that, you know, one of the things Coach Payton stresses is you know, find a way to win that day's game. Can you just comment on the way you guys have been able to adjust to whenever that day presents? “It's the NFL so every week is going to present a different challenge. But, facing adversity and coming through on top is just our main goal. Coach Payton emphasizes it every week it’s just, find a way to win. That's what we've been doing.” I'm just curious like, if you've learned anything about running this two-minute offense with Drew (Brees), when you're actually in it with him, like what kind of sticks out to you? “We're going to score. It's plain and simple. It's a thing of beauty, whether it's before the half, whether it’s the end of the game, we're expecting to score.” Does he actually vocalize that in the huddle? I just imagine, it's just like, kind of like a confidence that it's just kind of a product of doing it a lot. “Yeah, hundred percent. Yeah, he doesn’t verbally vocalize it. We just expect it because it's something that we've gone on and executed since I've been here. I know we’ve done it long before that. But just speaking from my time, two-minute we go out and execute.” When you guys are running the ball like you are, like you did yesterday, how much confidence does that give you guys throughout the game, when you're executing the offense? Because it looks like, you know, with that success, you seem like you are playing really confident yesterday? “When you're running the ball like that, especially in the first half it always gives you a boost of confidence, not just in the run game. But because, we're going to backdoor some big play action passes, we know that we are setting up the passing game as well. It really just kind of makes the offense roll.”

Offensively, you guys got into a groove yesterday. As you've already mentioned, you don't punt. I think you've had some other games where this team didn't punt but do you get into a headspace where you feel like every time you get the ball, you’ve got to be able to score? “Of course I think that every time we get the ball anyways, we're going to run the ball down the field, we’re going to pass the ball down the field, whatever it takes, we're going to go score. But yesterday, we really got in a groove, which was nice to see.” Just another one on that two minute drill, I think that last play of that, when Drew (Brees) threw the touchdown at Deonte (Harris). There was maybe four seconds left on the clock and no timeouts left. But what's kind of the understanding and in the moment there when that play happens? “It's, touchdown. Just plain and simple. You know Drew's going to find the open window. Not anybody is going to get close to him. And he’s going to throw a touchdown.” New Orleans Saints Defense Tackle Sheldon Rankins Video Call with New Orleans Media Monday, October 26, 2020 Why do you think this run defense has been so consistently good for your unit? What is it about what you do that just makes it so tough? “Well, I think everybody on our defense comes in with the mindset that we're going to make every team one dimensional, force them to try to beat us that way. And then we just go out and execute, I think our coaches, DA (Dennis Allen), position coaches as well, they put us in great positions to be able to go out there and execute a game plan to be able to stop the run and make teams one dimensional. Then it’s just on us to go out there and make those plays and force teams to have to throw the ball.” I was going to ask you about the same thing. And I'm curious how much pride you guys take it in, first of all, this streak that you still have going of no 100-yard rushers. But just in general, the idea that you've developed this reputation as a team that you probably shouldn't even bother trying to run against. “We take pride in that, I think, especially being an interior guy, rushing the passer is great, I love to do that (with) the best of them, but being able to physically stop another human from moving you off the ball and being able to make tackles in the backfield and stopping teams from being able to truly stick to their game plan. I don't think any team goes into a game saying, ‘Hey, we're going to abandon the run after seven or eight carries.’ or something like that. So being able to stop a team early and often. And make a team say ‘yeah, there's no point of even trying anymore.’ That's definitely something I take pride in and my fellow d-line teammates take pride in as well.” Is there any trade off? Because you guys have had some inconsistency in other areas on defense, but I mean, is there any trade off to devoting that much effort to stopping has led to vulnerable in other areas? Or that's not the case? “No, I don't think so. I think, listen, we're just, as far as it goes stopping the run, we're just kind of clicking on all cylinders right now. So we’ve just got to kind of get everything

else corrected and fix little things here and there. And once we get those things clicking on all cylinders as well, our defense will be exactly what we expect it to be. So no trade off, I think we bust our ass to do everything right on defense, stop the run, defend the pass, rush the passer. So it's just still some things we’ve got to correct. We always say, ‘It's a beautiful thing to be sitting at 4-2, and still feel like you haven't played your best football.’ So I'm very excited about that. And we'll continue to move forward and correct those things and get everything on the right page.” Three straight wins for the team. What have you seen overall, throughout the team, that you feel like you guys have done consistently to get those three consecutive wins? “I think the big thing that pretty much anybody can see is how we fight the adversity. We've dealt with some, whether it be starting down 14-0. Five minutes into a game, you're down 14-0, nobody wants to start a game that way. And whether it be yesterday, we felt like we were getting off to a fast start and then a few plays here and there and they're right back in the game, but we we're able to weather (the) storm. I think Sean (Payton) always talks about how you’ve got to find a way to win that game. Every game is not going to be come in and roll the ball out there and just be able to go out athlete, people or just hang 40 points on everybody. You’ve just got to find a way to win that specific game, however it is that you’ve got to win it and we've been able to do that over the last couple of weeks. So just continuing to do that while continuing to play better and certain aspects. We'll be right where we want to be.” What was it like seeing your college teammate (Teddy Bridgewater) yesterday and trying to get to him? “Teddy is just a shifty as he was when I was chasing him around in Louisville, when I was chasing around here. It's definitely good to be able to compete against that guy. It was my first time I've actually done that. So it was definitely fun to go out there and compete against him. I was able to get a good shot on him. I was surprised he held it that long, but I appreciate the quarterback, Teddy, if you're watching this, I appreciate it. But yeah, I mean, it's definitely good to go out there and compete against him. But even better to come away with the win against him.” What do you say to him when you hit him? “I didn’t say anything. He got he kind of laughed a little bit, but that's Teddy. He's going to take it all in stride, he loves to compete as much as I love to compete. So he definitely took it all in stride.” I am assuming most of the time, the offense is on the field, you guys are not really necessarily watching them, you are getting ready for what you have to do. But when they're in a two minute drill, are you paying more attention than usual? And what did you think of that drill Drew (Brees) put together at the end of the first half yesterday? “I mean, I will say I am always watching as much as I can just because you never know what type of stuff is going to happen. Alvin (Kamara) may cut across the field two or three times and go for 80 or, like you said, Drew with his pinpoint accuracy knowing

exactly where to go with the ball down the field. As many times as I've seen it, it's still in that game atmosphere still amazes me to this day. So (I’m) glad he’s my quarterback.” Technically, no shimmies yesterday, but you had that quarterback hit and that big tackle for loss there. How confident do you feel in your abilities now that we're midway through the season, and you have the injuries behind you? “Yeah, listen, for me, it's all about improving each and every game. I think each and every game I see flashes of the guy who you guys are accustom to seeing, I'm accustom to seeing and the guy who I'm continuing to grow and try to become again. I was talking to somebody yesterday, I’ve just got to continue to put it together, got to continue to stack those moments, stack these days and eventually, it'll be clicking, and I'll be rolling and doing everything I want to do. It definitely feels good to be able to go out there and make big time plays for this team. I’ve just got to continue to work my ass off, do everything I need to do to stay healthy and those plays with the teams will continue to come for me.” I'm wondering how familiar this season is beginning to feel relative to the last three just considering how there seemed to be a similar early season stumble. And then the team increasingly kind of built off of that. “I mean, we don't ever plan for early season stumbles or anything like that, but like I said, adversity to start a season is nothing new to us. We’ve faced it before. We know what it takes to get on a roll and start winning some games. And like I said, we know that each and every game is going to be different, we’ve got to find a way to win that specific game a certain way, whether it be coming up with a stop, like we were able to do yesterday. Marcus (Davenport) with that big time sack kind of putting them in really backed up field goal range. If he doesn't get that stack, then it’s maybe a more manageable field goal for that guy to be able to come through and make. Whether it be a shootout where Drew (Brees) has to go orchestrate a two-minute drill and be able to, win a game for us. I think adversity is nothing new to us, we've always found a way to weather the storm. And we'll continue to get better and continue to fix the things that need to be fixed. And we'll get on a roll here.” You just mentioned that sack. I'm curious was there any acknowledgement before that play or in the huddle of specifically what a sack would do for you guys in that situation, not just getting off the field on third down, but backing them up as well? And how big of a play was that for everyone involved? Yeah, in that type of situation, we're always looking for a sack or turnover, those are the two big things that, in that moment, we're talking about, we're echoing across the front. Linebackers and secondary where like, we’ve got to come up with this play. For Marcus (Davenport) to come up with that play, obviously, him getting back on the field and being a playmaker for us, it couldn't have come at a bigger moment. Like I said, that’s a play that really kind of put them in that field goal range where it was going to be a tough one for that guy to make and he was just short. So that was a big time play.”
