It’s no secret — the New Orleans Saints looked atrocious to begin the year, starting 1-4 with the playoffs being a somewhat comical goal.
My, how the tables have turned. Sean Payton and company won their last three games, jumping back to an even .500 and making a run at the postseason a realistic endeavor.
With victories in four of their last five contests, this once-dysfunctional organization is finally coming around, and impressive fashion on both sides of the ball, until the defense gave up a career day to Eli Manning during their shootout win against the New York Giants.
