NEW ORLEANS -- The New Orleans Saints have now rallied back from deficits of 14-0 and 20-3 the past two weeks after a thrilling 30-27 overtime win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night.
That’s the kind of stuff that can build momentum and salvage a season. But it also can’t mask the fact that the 3-2 Saints are a couple hairs away from being 1-4 heading into their bye week.
When you throw in all the injuries the Saints have dealt with in this young season, the bye couldn’t come at a better time.
