Chase Young's touchdown might be the Saints defensive moment of the year

Chase Young's strip sack of Cam Ward was critical to the New Orleans Saints' fourth consecutive victory and was arguably the best defensive play of the season.

Young's sack was, without a doubt, the best defensive play of the game. What sets it apart from other plays was the pure shock value. It's the Saints' third defensive score this year, but none of the plays looked like that.

If you could get half a sack for assisting on the play, Granderson would have secured his just due. Young ran the arc and relentlessly pursued Ward, but it was Granderson's pressure that flushed Ward to Young.
