The New Orleans Saints experienced a brief moment of déjà vu in their Week 3 game against the Seattle Seahawks, forcing a fumble out of their opponent before recovering the loose ball and streaking back towards the end zone for a defensive touchdown. The same thing happened a week ago for Saints defensive ends Trey Hendrickson and Cameron Jordan, only for an errant referee’s whistle piping in to take points off the board for New Orleans.
That wasn’t the case today. The officials stood back and let the play unfold before reviewing it with instant replay, and confirmed the ruling on the field.
