The New Orleans Saints losing to inferior teams? Is it January already? Let’s hope the Saints got their screw ups out of their system on Monday night , because if Sean Payton’s team keeps playing like they did against the Las Vegas Raiders, there might not be a January, and if the Saints do make it that far, it won’t be for long.
Michael Thomas, last year’s league leading receiver in targets, yards and receptions, missed the game with a high-ankle sprain. There’s no doubting his importance to the team, but it would be naive to blame the loss purely on his absence.
