The New Orleans Saints gave many reasons for optimism through the first two weeks of the season, but it can be difficult to remember those reasons on the heels of getting shellacked by the Seattle Seahawks. Conversations around Spencer Rattler’s job security and faith in Kellen Moore sprouted after Sunday’s blowout loss.
Conversations around how much longer Rattler will remain the starting quarterback is a great example of how the Week 3 loss shifts perspective. Through two weeks, most of the conversation around Rattler was complimentary and focused on how he played well enough to win. After this loss, however, the narrative changed.
