With Raiders coming to town, Saints coach Dennis Allen talks experience from old team to now

NEW ORLEANS -- Saints coach Dennis Allen won’t throw a victory parade if he beats his old team this weekend when the Saints host the Las Vegas Raiders.

There might be some personal satisfaction in a win Sunday (1 p.m. ET, CBS) in New Orleans for Allen, who was hired by the then-Oakland Raiders in January 2012 and fired four games into his third season after an 8-28 record.

It would also keep the Saints (2-5) in the hunt for the NFC South title, where they are currently only 1.
