When the New Orleans Saints lost to the Los Angeles Rams earlier in the season, it was not seen as some major loss. While we didn’t know then that the Rams weren’t going to be the dominant force they were last season, they were still the defending NFC Champions.
There was no shock or embarrassment to that loss.
Fast forward to the game last week against an Atlanta team that was allowing in the ballpark of 30 points per game, and the Saints now have one embarrassing loss on their resume.
The Saints failed to even score one TD on that Falcons team.
