Someone said: “Numbers Never Lie.” And that was a lie, because sometimes numbers do lie. But they don’t lie all the time, and that’s the truth.
The 2020 New Orleans Saints are an interesting team: the past three seasons, the Saints peaked fairly early. They quickly became a contender in the eyes of the fan or the pundits, only to fizzle, or flat out crash and burn in the playoffs. This year, not so much. Sure, New Orleans came into the season as an expected contender in the NFC, but with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Green Bay Packers and Seattle Seahawks garnering all the attention from the media, the Saints have been an afterthought.
