THE MATCHUP In a matchup between two longtime foes, the New Orle-ans Saints (9-2) will march into Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Thanksgiving night to face the Atlanta Falcons (3-8) in a nationally televised contest. It will be the third time that the Saints have played on Thanksgiving, the second consecu-tive season between these clubs as the Saints captured the holiday evening last year 34-17 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on the strength of four Drew Brees touchdown passes and several big red zone defensive plays.

New Orleans is coming off of a 34-31 victory over the Car-olina Panthers on Sunday at the Mercedes-Benz Super-dome that featured significant contributions on offense, defense and special teams, as the outcome was not decid-ed until K Wil Lutz kicked a 33-yard field goal at the end of regulation. The 9-2 Saints currently lead the NFC South by four games over the 5-6 Carolina Panthers with a third consecutive division title in plain signed.

New Orleans will be looking for their tenth victory of the season on Thanksgiving night. A win over Atlanta would give New Orleans double-digit victories for the third con-secutive season for only the second time in franchise his-tory. Most importantly it would make them division champi-ons, setting up a battle for the top seed in the NFC when New Orleans hosts the 10-1 San Francisco 49ers on De-cember 8 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome

Sunday’s effort in all three phases took all 60 minutes of regulation for New Orleans to come up with a hard-earned

victory over the Panthers. New Orleans jumped out to a 14-0 first quarter lead, but Carolina hung around in the con-test and tied the score for the first time midway through the fourth quarter on a two-yard touchdown pass from Caroli-na QB Kyle Allen to WR D.J. Moore. After the Saints were stopped on a fourth and inches opportunity at their 43-yard line, the Panthers took the ball back. The Panthers subse-quently advanced all the way to the New Orleans three-yard line. But the New Orleans defense kept the Panthers out of the end zone in a powerful goal line sequence, end-ing with a sack by DE Marcus Davenport on third down and Carolina K Joey Slye had a 28-yard field goal attempt go wide right on a play where Davenport provided pres-sure.

With the opportunity to win the contest in sight and starting field position at their 20-yard line with 1:56 remain-ing in the contest, Brees and the offense got to work. The signal-caller shook off a first down sack with completions to WR Michael Thomas and RB Alvin Kamara to get a first down. Once again, facing third and six at their 36, Brees completed a pass to Thomas that he turned into a 24-yard gain and put them on the precipice of field goal range. On a second down play, a 16-yard completion to Kamara put the Saints at Carolina’s 24-yard line. Followed by a nine-yard run by the team’s leading rusher in 2019 and a spike, Lutz drilled his second game-winning field goal of the sea-son, both at home, concluding an 11-play, 65-yard drive.

This Week In The NFC South: The Panthers (5-6_ will host Washington (2-9), while The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will travel across the state of Florida to face the Jackson-ville Jaguars..

THE COACHES

New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton has posted a 135-82 overall record (.622), including an 8-6 postseason mark after the franchise had won only one playoff game prior to his arrival in 2006. Payton holds both the club’s top victory total and winning percentage. Payton is tied for 27th all-time in National Football League record books in victo-ries with Mike McCarthy, fifth among active head coaches. He continues to represent the Saints as the model of stabil-ity not only within the NFC South, as he is the longest ten-ured head coach within the division, but also among the most accomplished within the National Football League, which promises to continue after agreeing to a long-term contract extension with the club. Only the New England Patriots’ Bill Belichick (2000) has been with the his team longer than Payton’s 14 seasons in New Orleans. Payton is also one of just seven active National Football League head coaches to lead a team to a Super Bowl victory. The others are Belichick, the Seattle Seahawks’ Pete Carroll, the Oakland Raiders’ Jon Gruden (Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2002), the Baltimore Ravens’ John Harbaugh, the Phila-delphia Eagles’ Doug Pederson and the Pittsburgh Steel-ers’ Mike Tomlin. The 2018 Saints edition posted a 13-3 regular season record, secured the NFC’s number one seed for the postseason and advanced to the NFC Cham-pionship game for the third time. A franchise-record five players were selected to the Associated Press All-Pro team and a club-best eight members of the team were named to the Pro Bowl. New Orleans’ ten-game winning streak was the second-longest in club history and the longest run of consecutive victories in the National Football League in 2018. The streak only sits behind in club record books, New Orleans’ 13-0 start under Payton in 2009, the season when they captured Super Bowl XLIV. New Orleans ranked third in the National Football League in points per game, eighth in total offense and sixth in rushing offense. A stingy run defense ranked second in both opponent rushing yards per game and opponent rushing yards per play. The 2019 campaign has started with a 9-2 record for the Black and Gold, standing in sole possession of first place in the NFC South division with a six-game winning streak, despite hav-ing to start both Drew Brees and Teddy Bridgewater. Pay-ton earned a bachelor’s degree in communications at East-ern Illinois, where as a quarterback he had 10,665 passing yards, at the time the third-highest total in NCAA Division I-AA history. Payton was inducted into the Eastern Illinois Hall of Fame in September of 2000 and had his jersey re-tired in a ceremony in September of 2010. He received an honorary doctorate from his alma mater in 2013. Payton was born December 29, 1963 in San Mateo, California, and was raised in Naperville, Illinois, Payton has a daughter, Meghan and a son, Connor.

Dan Quinn was named the 16th head coach in Atlanta Falcons history in 2015 and took over the club after serving as the Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator from 2013-14. Quinn has posted a 39-36 record in the regular season and a 3-2 mark in the postseason, for a 42-38 overall mark. In 2015, Quinn helped the Falcons improve from 6-10 to 8-8, finishing second in the NFC South, and he delivered the division title and Super Bowl appearance in 2016 and playoff berth in 2017. During his span as defensive coordi-nator of the Seahawks, Quinn oversaw the National Foot-ball League’s top defensive unit as Seattle led the league allowing only 270.4 yards per game, 15.2 points per game, and 178.8 passing yards per game while holding oppo-nents to 91.6 rushing yards per game. Quinn first joined the Seahawks in 2009, after spending the previous six years coaching the defensive lines for the San Francisco 49ers (2003-04), Miami Dolphins (2005-06) and the New York Jets (2007-08). He previously served as the Seahawks assistant head coach/defensive line coach in 2009 and served as defensive coordinator at the University of Florida from 2010-12. He began his National Football League coaching career in San Francisco as a defensive assistant in 2001 before moving over to coach the defensive line from 2003-2004. Quinn got his start coaching the defensive line at William and Mary in 1994, followed by a season at Virginia Military Institute. He held the same position with Hofstra for four seasons before being promoted to defen-sive coordinator in 2000. Quinn was a four-year letterwin-ner and two-time co-captain at Division III Salisbury (Md.) State as a defensive lineman, where he recorded 139 tack-les and eight tackles for loss. The Morristown, New Jersey native also lettered in track and held the school record in the hammer throw.

WEEK 1: Saints 30, Houston Texans 28; September 9, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – After a rough start and trailing by as much as 11 points at halftime, the Saints pulled off a thrilling 30-28 comeback victory, complete with six sacks, an S Marcus Williams pick, a balanced offense and a 58-yard field goal as time expired.

In the Monday night opener, QB Drew Brees finished with 370 passing yards, two touchdowns and a 105.8 rating. WR Michael Thomas topped the receiving corps with 123 yards on ten receptions. WR Ted Ginn Jr. added seven receptions for 101 yards and a 41-yard grab. RB Alvin Kamara led in rushing with 97 yards on 13 carries and had seven receptions for 72 yards. Latavius Murray carried the ball six times for 43 yards with a 30-yard touchdown.

The rough start began with an unproductive first offensive drive for New Orleans followed by a series where Texans OLB Whitney Mercilus picked off a Brees pass intended for Murray at the Houston four-year line. Houston QB Deshaun Watson then engineered a seven-play, 94-yard drive that ended with a 21-yard rushing touchdown by the third-year signal-caller. New Orleans’ offense wouldn’t remain score-less for long though as K Wil Lutz drilled a 32-yard field goal. The Texans then extended the lead to 14-3 on a two-yard touchdown from Watson to WR Deandre Hopkins.

The Saints got the ball first in the third quarter and scored their first touchdown of 2019 and moved within four on Murray’s scoring run. But the Texans answered with a 16-yard touchdown connection from Watson to Hopkins. How-ever on New Orleans’ next possession, the Saints an-swered with a seven-yard touchdown pass from Brees to QB Taysom Hill, followed up by Williams’ pick.

On the first play of the fourth quarter, New Orleans took their first lead of the night when Brees connected with WR Tre’Quan Smith on a 14-yard touchdown. Following an-other Lutz field goal, the Texans answered when Watson found Texans WR Kenny Stills for a 37-yard touchdown reception with 37 seconds left.

Brees then completed three quick passes and spiked the ball twice. After New Orleans used their final timeout, Lutz, who missed a 56-yard field goal near the end of the first half, connected on a career-long 58-yard field goal as time expired to give the Saints the win. For his last-second hero-ics, coach Sean Payton awarded Lutz with a game ball.

Lutz was perfect on all three point after tries, and drove all five of his kickoffs out for touchbacks. It was New Orleans’ first season opening victory since 2013.

WEEK 2: Los Angeles Rams 27, Saints 9; September

15, 2019 @ Los Angeles Veterans Memorial Coliseum – New Orleans struggled to put together consistent drives on offense and despite a gritty defensive effort, struggled on offense when both Drew Brees and Teddy Bridgewater quarterbacked the team. After struggling with penalties, the Saints offense was unable to overcome that on third down, finishing just 4-of-13 on their third down attempts.

Following an interception by Rams S John Johnson, Los Angeles capped their first drive, a seven-play 3:43 minute drive with a 24-yard field goal by K Greg Zuerlein to get on the scoreboard first, a lead they would never relinquish. . After a second unsuccessful series by the Saints offense, Brees was forced to leave the game with a thumb injury. However, the Rams offense was unable to score on their next three offensive drives, as a sack by DE Cameron Jor-dan ended one and a fumble recovery by the All-Pro end the other. On the Saints’ first possession of the second quarter, powered by a 19-yard punt return by WR/RS De-onte Harris, K Wil Lutz connected on a 30-yard field goal to put the Saints on the board. Following a failed fourth down attempt by the Saints and a subsequent 20-yard run by Rams RB Todd Gurley, Zuerlein converted a 22-yard field goal at the end of the first half. Besides a pair of field goals, the Saints offense wasn't able to get going in the second half and the Rams used an four-yard touchdown run by Gurley and a two-yard touchdown connection be-tween QB Jared Goff and WR Brandin Cooks to extend the lead.

WEEK 3: New Orleans Saints 33, Seattle Seahawks 27; September 22, 2019 @ CenturyLink Field – RB Alvin Kamara powered the New Orleans offensive attack, grinding out 161 total yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns stake the Saints to a 33-27 victory to improve to 2-1. The Saints defense and special teams did the rest, stopping four fourth down conversions and dominating the kicking game, while creating 13 points.

Kamara rushed for 69 yards and caught nine passes for 92 yards, scoring touchdowns on the ground and through the air. QB Teddy Bridgewater, starting in place of an in-jured Drew Brees, completed 19-of-27 passes for 177 yards with two touchdowns, zero interceptions and a 112.7 rating as the Saints garnered their first road win of 2019.

While the Saints defense surrendered 515 total net yards, they made stops or big plays at the most opportune times, including stopping four fourth down attempts for the first time since at Jacksonville on October 2, 2011. Seattle running backs only accounted for 58 yards on 19 carries, while CB Eli Apple forced Seahawks RB Chris Carson to fumble in the second quarter and it was picked up by S Vonn Bell, returned 33 yards for a touchdown.

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE-WEEK THREE AT SEATTLE

Special teams also played an important role in the victo-ry in several facets. Early in the first quarter, rookie WR/RS Deonte Harris returned a punt 53 yards for a touch-down to give New Orleans a 7-0 lead. P Thomas Morstead and the club’s coverage units were dominant in the kicking game as the 11th-year special teams captain punted six times for 324 yards for a 54.0 gross punting average and a 52.0 net. Four of Morstead’s punts fell inside the 20-yard line, two inside the five. DB J.T. Gray had a career-high and game-high three special teams stops.

• Bell finished the game with nine tackles, one pass de-fensed and the fumble recovery returned for a touchdown 

• Kamara led New Orleans in receiving with nine grabs for 92 yards with a 29-yard scoring grab. WR Michael Thomas caught five passes for 54 yards and a one-yard touchdown as he joined Odell Beckham Jr. and Anquan Boldin as the only players in NFL history with at least 300 catches and 4,000 receiving yards in their first 50 games.

• An inspired effort against the run surrendered only 58 yards rushing on 19 carries to Seattle running backs, in-cluding only 53 yards on 15 carries (3.5 avg.) with one fum-ble lost for Seahawks starter Chris Carson. CB Marshon Lattimore led the Saints with a career-high 12 tackles (ten solo), while LB Demario Davis finished tied for second with Bell with nine stops.

• With the punt return for a touchdown and the fumble re-turn for a score, it marked the third time in franchise history the Saints scored an offensive, defensive and special teams touchdown in the same game, joining at 31-24 win over Philadelphia at Tulane Stadium on November 5, 1967 and a 31-24 loss at Minnesota on November 8, 1998.

• The victory gave New Orleans an 8-6 record against the Seahawks in the regular season, their second consecutive victory against Seattle. After two postseason losses and one regular season loss in Seattle, it marked the first time the Saints won at CenturyLink Field since the 2007 season.

WEEK 4: Saints 12, Dallas Cowboys 10; September 29, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints won their second consecutive game, defeating Dallas at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in a contest dominated by de-fense and special teams. It marked the first time New Orle-ans won a game without scoring a touchdown since an Oct. 25, 1998 9-3 victory over Tampa Bay.

The Saints won the coin toss and deferred. After the Cowboys punted, the Cowboys took advantage of an inter-

ception off a bobbled ball by WR Ted Ginn Jr. and took possession at their 46-yard line. Dallas jumped out to a 3-0 lead compliments of a 28-yard field goal by K Brett Maher. New Orleans started pushing back when WR/RS Deonte Harris returned a kickoff 29 yards in a drive that spanned the first and second quarters and went nine plays and 52 yards, K Wil Lutz drilled a 40-yard field goal. New Orleans then forced a quick three-and-out, Harris returned the punt to the Saints 49 and Lutz hit a 42-yard field goal to give New Orleans the edge. A potential score was averted when on a completion from Cowboys QB Dak Prescott to TE Jason Witten, LB A.J. Klein punched the ball out and it was recovered by S Vonn Bell. Towards the end of the quarter, Bell forced a fumble by Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott and recovered it, setting the stage for a 19-yard field goal by Lutz and a 9-3 Saints halftime lead.

Midway through the third quarter, Prescott completed a pass for a 35-yard gain to TE Blake Jarwin, that set up a one-yard rushing touchdown by Elliott to give the Dallas a 10-9 lead.

Between the third and fourth quarters, QB Teddy Bridgewater drove the offense 67 yards in 15 plays on a drive that lasted 9:06 and Lutz drilled a 26-yard field goal for the lead. New Orleans held on for the win with DT David Onyemata dropping Prescott for a 11-yard loss and S Marcus Williams picking him off on the final play of the contest to seal the victory.

Bridgewater threw for 193 yards and WR Michael Thomas had nine receptions for 95 yards to move into a tie for the NFL receiving lead with 34 grabs and tie Odel Beckham Jr. for reaching 350 career catches in the fewest games in NFL history (52 games). Defensively, Bell led the team with ten tackles.

Week 5: Saints 31, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24; October 6, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – New Orleans put together one of their more complete games as they recorded a victory over their NFC South divisional rivals in the start of their 2019 division slate.

After gaining three first downs on their first possession, New Orleans was forced to punt. However, on Tampa Bay’s next possession, the Saints defense would force a three-and-out and a punt. Starting the ensuing drive on their own 36-yard line, QB Teddy Bridgewater would lead a nine-play, 53-yard drive that culminated in a Wil Lutz 29-yard field goal to give the Saints the early lead. Two pos-session later, after Buccaneers CB Sean Murphy-Bunting picked off Bridgewater after a ball bounced off of WR Ted Ginn Jr., QB Jameis Winston and the Tampa Bay of-fense would take advantage of great field position as he would find WR Chris Godwin for a 26-yard touchdown to take a 7-3 lead.

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE-WEEK FIVE VS. TAMPA BAY

On the next Saints possession, they’d regain the lead, with Bridgewater connecting with WR Michael Thomas on a 14-yard touchdown. Tampa Bay K Matt Gay connected on a 42-yard field goal to tied the score again. But the Saints took the lead back with 37 seconds left in the first half when Bridgewater and TE Jared Cook connected for a nine-yard touchdown.

The Saints then got the ball coming out of the second half and Bridgewater connected on a 42-yard completion to Thomas and then two plays later found Ginn for a 33-yard touchdown. The Buccaneers struck back by going on a 17-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a two-yard touchdown run by RB Peyton Barber to put the Buccaneers back with-in seven. Near the end of the third quarter, the Saints were pinned back at their nine on third-and-ten and Bridgewater found Thomas for a 20-yard completion to keep a crucial drive alive.

The drive would stay alive in the fourth quarter, eventually going for 13-plays and 91 yards as Bridgewater found Thomas for a nine-yard touchdown, as the signal-caller tied his career-high for scoring throws. The clubs traded three and outs, but then the Saints pass rush became active with three sacks on a single series to forced a punt. The Bucca-neers offense would strike again with Godwin hauling in a 26-yard touchdown from Winston to make it a one-score game. But the onside kick attempt went out of bounds to give New Orleans the ball back for a victory formation.

WEEK 6: Saints 13, Jacksonville Jaguars 6; October 13, 2019 @ TIAA Bank Field – The Saints won their fourth consecutive game, defeating Jacksonville in a contest dominated by defense and special teams, with timely offen-sive plays mixed in. It marked the first time New Orleans didn’t surrender a touchdown since a 20-0 shutout of the Miami Dolphins in London on October 1, 2017.

The Jaguars won the coin toss and deferred. The clubs traded punts for each of their first two possessions. New Orleans jumped out to a 3-0 lead compliments of a 47-yard field goal by K Wil Lutz. New Orleans took a bend but don’t break approach on a Jacksonville drive midway through the second quarter as Jaguars QB Gavin Minshew completed 12– and 22-yard passes to WR D.J. Chark, followed by some nifty runs by RB Leonard Fournette. But the Saints kept the Jaguars out of the end zone at their four-yard line and forced a 22-yard Josh Lambo field goal to close out the only scoring of the first half.

New Orleans recorded the only takeaway game on the

first drive of the second half when CB Marshon Lattimore picked off a pass intended for Chark. The Saints would take the lead back on the next drive when Lutz drilled a 21-yard field goal. Midway through the third quarter, Minshew completed a pass for a 23-yard gain to WR Dede West-brook, that set up a 32-yard Lambo field goal.

Between the third and fourth quarters, QB Teddy Bridgewater drove the offense 75 yards in 11 plays on a drive that lasted 6:22 and he eventually connected with TE Jared Cook on a four-yard touchdown pass. New Orle-ans then defended a Jacksonville drive on downs at the Saints 40 and despite a quick three and out, then forced a Jaguars punt. The Saints then wouldn’t give the ball back, holding it for the final 6:09 of the contest, converting three first downs.

Bridgewater threw for 240 yards and WR Michael Thomas had eight receptions for 89 yards to hold the NFL receiving lead. Defensively, DE Cameron Jordan rec-orded two sacks to move into a tie with LB Pat Swilling for third place on the club’s all-time list.

WEEK 7: Saints 36, Chicago Bears 25; October 20, 2019 @ Soldier Field – Vonn Bell and A.J. Klein each recorded fumble recoveries, one of which Teddy Bridge-water converted into a touchdown pass to help New Orleans increase their winning streak to five with a 36-25 win over Chicago at Soldier Field, the Saints’ fifth consecu-tive victory over the Bears.

The Saints held Chicago to only 17 rushing yards, the fifth-lowest opponent total in franchise history and kept their run offense from getting a first down for only the fourth time in franchise record books. As part of the dominating defensive performance, Cameron Jordan recorded two sacks to move into sole possession for their place on the club’s all-time list

Offensively, Latavius Murray rushed for 119 yards and two touchdowns, New Orleans’ first 100-yard rusher of the sea-son. He added 31 yards on five receptions for 150 total yards from scrimmage. Bridgewater improved his touch-down pass-interception on the season to 9-2, throwing scoring throws to Josh Hill and Taysom Hill. Michael Thomas had nine receptions for 131 yards (14.6 avg.). Bridgewater competed 23 of 38 passes for 281 yards and a 100.9 passer rating.

New Orleans jumped out to a 9-0 lead on a safety from a J.T. Gray blocked punt and a Bridgewater-Hill touch-down connection. The Bears took the lead early in the sec-ond quarter on Eddy Pineiro’s 46-yard field goal but New Orleans took the lead for good on a 39-yard kick by Wil Lutz, his NFL-record 35th consecutive road field goal. That was the start of 27 unanswered points by New Orle-ans in the contest.

WEEK 8: Saints 31, Arizona Cardinals 9; October 27, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints im-proved to 7-1, powered by an offensive attack that tied a season-high with 510 total net yards, welcomed back by the return of QB Drew Brees and a defense that did not allow a touchdown for the second time this season and the second time in three weeks.

The Cardinals opened the scoring with 5:41 left in the first quarter when K Zane Gonzalez drilled a 31-yard field goal. After Brees connected with QB Taysom Hill on a 22-yard completion to set up a 26-yard field goal by K Wil Lutz, the Saints would not trail again in the contest where he returned from right thumb surgery that sidelined him for five games.

Midway through the second quarter, RB Latavius Mur-ray, who led the saints in rushing with 102 rushing yards, 157 total yards from scrimmage and two touch-downs, scored on an eight-yard rush. On Arizona’s next possession, Gonzalez booted a 31-yard field goal to cut New Orleans’ lead to 10-6.

Midway through the third quarter, after the Saints stopped the Cardinals on a fourth and one attempt at their 30 on a stop for no gain by DT David Onyemata, Brees led New Orleans on five-play, 30-yard drive, ending with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Murray, the running back’s first career scoring grab. Brees finished his day by completing 34-of-43 passes for 373 yards with three touchdowns and one interception with a 116.4 passer rating.

With the Cardinals in rally mode, trailing 17-9 at the end of the third quarter after a 50-yard field by Gonzalez, Hill caught a five-yard touchdown from Brees at the start of the fourth quarter. On the next play from scrimmage, a Saints team sack, set the Cardinals back to second and 20 at their 15-yard line and would force a punt. plays later, Brees connected for a touchdown for the final time on the after-noon, when he hit WR Michael Thomas for a nine-yard touchdown to seal the win for New Orleans heading into their Week 10 bye.

• A swarming New Orleans defense allowed only 237 net yards and allowed Cardinals QB Kyler Murray to complete only 19-of-33 passes for 222 yards with zero touchdowns and a 77.8 passer rating.

• Brees tossed three touchdowns, giving him 159 career games with at least two touchdown passes, tied with Pro Football Hall of Famer Brett Favre for the third-most such games in NFL history.

• The New Orleans defense held the Cardinals to only 115 total net yards in the first half, while all four Saints sacks occurred in the second half. LB Demario Davis led the

standout defensive effort with a teams-high eight tackles (seven solo), while DE Cameron Jordan recorded two a sack to reach eight takedowns for the midpoint of the sea-son and 79.5 for his career.

WEEK 10: Atlanta Falcons 26, Saints 9; November 10, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – New Orleans’ re-turn to action following a Week Nine bye would be a forget-table one, as they would suffer their first loss after a bye since the 2015 season at the hands of their divisional ri-vals. Despite Drew Brees and Taysom Hill putting up 304 passing yards through the air, S Marcus Williams intercept-ing Falcons QB Matt Ryan and WR/RS Deonte Harris and K Wil Lutz excelling on special teams, 12 penalties and allowing Brees to get sacked six times set New Orleans back

the two clubs traded field goals, as New Orleans scored their first points of 2019 on an opening offensive drive. However Atlanta scored a touchdown on a 17-play, 75-yard drive that stretched into the second quarter, ending with an eight-yard touchdown pass from QB Matt Ryan to TE Austin Hooper.

New Orleans was on the verge of getting off the field for a field goal attempt, but three penalties in Saints territory resulted in first downs. The clubs traded punts and then field goals, Atlanta went into halftime with a 13-6 edge.

After trading punts to open the second half, WR/RS Deonte Harris returned a punt 19 yards to the Atlanta 38, but a sack of Brees in the red zone forced a third Lutz field goal. Atlanta then chewed 6:12 off the clock on a 13-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a ten-yard touchdown pass from Ryan to RB Brian Poole

After New Orleans was forced to punt, Atlanta kicked a field goal, followed by another loss on downs, but the Saints got New life trailing 23-9 midway through the fourth quarter when Williams picked off Ryan. But the Saints failed to execute and had their six-game winning streak snapped.

WR Michael Thomas enjoyed another standout day in what has become another record-setting fourth cam-paign, grabbing a season-high 13 passes for 152 yards. He became the fastest player to 400 receptions in his 56th career game and no player has matched his 401 catches through their first four seasons. Leading the NFL in both receiving and receiving yardage with 86 grabs for 1,027 yards with four touchdowns. He also moved into fourth place in club record books with his 14th career 100-yard receiving game

Williams’ pick was his team-leading third of the season and he is currently tied for fifth in the league in in-terceptions. LB Demario Davis led a Saints defense ranked fifth in the NFL with a game-high 11 tackles and their only sack.

WEEK 11: Saints 34, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17; No-vember 17, 2019 @ Raymond James Stadium – Vonn Bell, Demario Davis, Marcus Williams and P.J. Williams each recorded interceptions, one of which Marcus Williams brought back 55 yards for a touchdown and an efficient offense and special teams helped New Orleans rebound from a Week 10 loss to get their first season sweep of Tampa Bay since 2014.

Running back Alvin Kamara posted 154 all purpose yards including 13 carries for 75 yards (5.8 avg.), ten re-ceptions for 47 yards and a 27-yard punt return to set up a touchdown. Quarterback Drew Brees completed 28-of-35 (80.0%) of his passes for 228 yards with three touchdowns, zero interceptions and a 122.4 passer rating, while the New Orleans offensive line kept his jersey clean. Wide receiver Michael Thomas posted eight receptions for 114 yards with one touchdown as he became the first player in Na-tional Football League history to have 90 catches in each of his first four seasons. Tight end Jared Cook had a 30-yard grab and a three-yard touchdown.

In addition to the four picks, the Saints defense surren-dered only 36 rushing yards on the day and defensive end Cameron Jordan posted 1.5 sacks.

• LB Demario Davis tied for a team lead with six tackles, had his first regular season interception as a Saint and a career-high four passes defensed.

• P.J. Williams started in place of an injured Marshon Lat-timore and posted his first interception of the season to go with three solo tackles.

• LB Kiko Alonso led the team with six solo tackles and de-flected the pass intercepted by Bell at the end of the first half.

WEEK 12: Saints 34, Carolina Panthers 31; November 24, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – Saints quarter-back Drew Brees, receiver Michael Thomas and kicker Wil Lutz celebrated a decisive string of late-game success-es that put New Orleans on the cusp of a third straight NFC South crown. The Carolina Panthers could only lament the first-and-goal they squandered just moments earlier in a third straight loss that has placed their playoff prospects in jeop-ardy. Lutz kicked a 33-yard field goal as time expired, and New Orleans beat Carolina 34-31 on Sunday to take a four-game lead in the NFC South with five games left. “It’s exciting. It’s butterflies. But also, it’s confidence,” said Brees, who led the Saints from their own 14-yard line with 1:51 left to the Carolina 15 with three seconds remain-ing. “It’s unity. You feel like everybody knows the challenge ahead. Everybody knows what we need to do in order to

accomplish whatever it is we need to accomplish to go win the game. Everybody just kind of locks in and goes.” Lutz’s second game-winning kick this season capped a contest filled with late momentum shifts and critical errors — none bigger than Carolina kicker Joey Slye’s missed field goal from 28 yards with 2 minutes left. Carolina trailed from early in the first quarter until 9:23 remained in the fourth quarter, when D.J. Moore reached up with his right hand to corral a fourth-and-goal pass in the back of the end zone to tie it at 31. Soon after, Panthers safety Eric Reid stuffed running back Alvin Kamara on fourth-and-1 from the New Orleans 45. That set up a dramatic sequence in which Carolina head coach Ron Rivera successfully challenged officials’ decision not to call pass interference on a third-down in-complete pass, giving Carolina a first down on the 3 with 2:21 left. Panthers running abck Christian McCaffrey’s run was stuffed, quarterback Kyle Allen threw incomplete on second down and Allen was sacked on third down by Saints defen-sive end Marcus Davenport, setting the stage for the end of a difficult day for Slye, who’d also missed two extra-point kicks. “I feel terrible,” Slye said. “We needed this win.” Brees finished 30 of 39 for 311 yards and three touch-downs, but also was intercepted by Panthers safety Tre Boston, a play that helped Carolina come back in the fourth quarter. Thomas had 10 catches for 101 yards and a touchdown for New Orleans (9-2), including receptions of 14 and 24 yards on the game-winning drive as he posted 100 receptions for the third consecutive season and be-came the first Saint with five straight contests of at least 100 receiving yards. “We work that situation week in and week out and it al-ways comes up to benefit us,” Thomas said of the Saints’ hurry-up offense. “I’m just grateful for not cheating the preparation.” Allen passed for 256 yards and three touchdowns for Carolina (5-6), which saw its playoff hopes pushed to the brink. “It is incredibly frustrating,” Allen said. “Some weeks it’s been offense, some weeks it’s been defense. We’ve just got to put it together and play a complete game.” McCaffrey had 133 yards and two touchdowns from scrimmage on a balance of runs and receptions. Moore had six catches for 126 yards and two TDs, the first a 51-yarder. Saints tight end Jared Cook had six catches for 99 yards, including a 20-yard touchdown, and running back Latavius Murray scored the game’s first touchdown on a 26-yard run.

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE-HOLDING THE LINE

Ahead is a synopsis of several returning players and new-comers through the draft, free agency and trade to the 2019 Saints offensive line:

Left Tackle Terron Armstead - The club’s first third round draft choice in 2013 out of Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Armstead impressed scouts by running the fastest 40-yard dash time (4.71) by an offensive lineman in the history of the National Football League Scouting Combine. He has opened 67 regular season games for New Orleans and six postsea-son contests and received his first Pro Bowl and Associat-ed Press All-Pro selections in 2018, having opened ten regular season contests and both playoff games.

Center/Guard Nick Easton - Originally signed as an un-drafted free agent by Baltimore out of Harvard, Easton de-veloped into a starting swing guard/center by his second season and opened 17 contests for Minnesota. The North Carolina native signed with New Orleans to provide interior depth and has started the last two contests at left guard in place of an injured Andrus Peat

Tackle/Guard Andrus Peat - A first round selection (13th overall) in the 2015 NFL Draft out of Stanford, Peat was considered one of the top college linemen in 2014. In his first five seasons, Peat’s played in 61 games with 56 starts, opening a contest at every position except center. In 2018, he opened 12 regular season contests at left guard and one at left tackle and both postseason games at left guard as he was named to the Pro Bowl for the first time. He’s opened nine contests at left guard in 2019.

Right Tackle Ryan Ramczyk - The Black and Gold used their second first round selection in the 2017 NFL Draft to snag Ramczyk out of Wisconsin, viewed by many as one of the best linemen in the entire draft. After opening all 16 games and both postseason contests in 2017 and being selected as a PFWA All-Rookie, he was an AP All-Pro se-lection at right tackle in 2018, not missing an offensive snap in both postseason contests and all 15 regular games at the right tackle position that he played in where he is now a cornerstone. Ramczyk has opened all ten regular season games in 2019 to serve as a dominating bookend to Armstead.

Center Erik McCoy - New Orleans traded up in the sec-ond round of the 2019 NFL Draft to select this standout from Texas A&M, who was a three-year starter, anchoring the middle of the Aggies offensive line. In 2018, he was a team captain who paved the way for the Southeastern Conference’s leading rusher and was the first Saint in fran-chise history to start at center in Week One, as he has able replaced the retired Max Unger.

Right Guard Larry Warford - Originally selected by De-troit in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft (65th overall) out of Kentucky, this seventh-year blocker brought size, strength and foot quickness to the Saints’ line in 2017, as he started all 14 regular season games he played in and both postseason contests at right guard. New Orleans’ rush offense responded to his addition, as the ground game finished fifth in the NFL as he was named to the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career. In 2018, Warford opened the first 15 games of the season and both postsea-son contests for the NFL’s sixth ranked rushing offense and third-ranked scoring club, as he was named to the Pro Bowl for the second consecutive season. Warford has opened all 11 contests this season.

Center/Guard Will Clapp - A technically proficient player, who through the combination of size, strength and intelligence, was a three-year starter on the Louisiana State University offensive line, starting all 36 games that he appeared in (13 at center, 12 at left guard, 11 at right guard), earning first-team All-SEC honors at guard and center. Blocking for 1,000-yard rushers in each of his three college seasons, the former Brother Martin standout set-tled in at center in 2017, where he was a first-team All-SEC selection and a Rimington Trophy finalist. Clapp made his first career start at left guard in the 2018 regular season finale. After his first full offseason in the club’s off-season strength and conditioning program, Clapp will pro-vide depth on the interior of the Saints line and has also served as a jumbo tight end, seeing significant action as the club’s sixth offensive lineman in each contest as well as at left guard.

Tackle/Guard Patrick Omameh - Originally signed by San Francisco as an undrafted free agent in 2013, this for-mer Michigan standout has played in 75 games with 56 starts in the regular season and three playoff starts at both tackle and guard for five different teams, possessing the flexibility to play either inside or outside. Omameh played at left tackle in three quarters of Sunday’s win over Caroli-na following an ankle injury to Armstead.

2014 SCHEDULE/RESULTS DEFENSIVE NOTES

DEFENSIVE DRAFTS

Over the last five NFL Drafts from 2015-19, New Orleans has shown a commitment to improving the defense, spend-ing 17-of-28 picks on that side of the ball. With nine picks in the 2015 NFL Draft, the Saints picked six defensive play-ers, the most taken since New Orleans chose nine defen-sive players in a 12-round selection meeting in 1990. Be-low is an overview of the players selected by New Orleans from 2015-19 on the 53-man roster:

LB Stephone Anthony, Clemson (D1-15) - Selected in the first round (31st overall) of the 2015 NFL Draft out of Clemson, Anthony was a consensus All-Rookie selection when he led the Black and Gold with 144 tackles. Follow-ing a two season stint in Miami, Anthony has returned to contribute on both defense and on special teams.

S Vonn Bell, Ohio State (D2b-16) - Selected in the sec-ond round (61st overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft, Bell was a consensus All-American and one of the top rated defensive backs in the NFL Draft. As a senior, the Rossville, Ga. na-tive was a Jim Thorpe Award semifinalist after recording 65 tackles and adding two interceptions, one brought back for a touchdown, a fumble recovery and 11 passes defensed. Bell has translated that collegiate success to the NFL with ease in his first four seasons, appearing in 59 games with 43 starts and filling up the stat sheet with 333 tackles (229 solo), seven sacks, 16 passes defensed, seven forced fumbles and six fumble recoveries, one brought back for a touchdown. In the Week three and four contests, Bell be-came the first Saint to post three takeaways in two weeks since 2017, recovering three fumbles, including returning one 33 yards for a touchdown at Seattle, Sept. 22 and re-covering two in the second quarter of a 12-10 win over Dal-las on Sept. 29, to go with a club-best ten tackles, one pass defensed and forcing one of the two fumbles that he recovered. He’s posted 46 stops, four passes defensed, two forced fumbles and four recoveries to tie for first in the National Football League. Bell’s four fumble recoveries are the most by a Saints defender since S Sammy Knight’s five in 2001. Bell recorded the first interception of his career in the November 17 win at Tampa Bay and now leads the club with five takeaways. Overall, Bell leads the secondary with 70 stops, adding a split sack, the interception, six passes defensed, two forced fumbles and one recovery.

DE Marcus Davenport, Texas-San Antonio (D1-18) - Davenport joined the Saints with the 14th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft after showing potential and production as a pass rusher at Texas-San Antonio. In four seasons, Dav-enport posted 22 sacks, including 8.5 in 2017 when he captured Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year. Davenport’s strength on the line is a valuable asset for the

Saints front, playing an important role in the club’s packag-es in 2018, recording 4.5 sacks. Davenport’s ranked sec-ond on the club with four takedowns.

DB C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Florida (D4-19) - Possessing a combination of instincts and speed, this Cocoa, Florida native was a solid value in the fourth round for New Orle-ans after playing in all 13 games with 12 starts for the Ga-tors in 2018, when he posted 71 tackles, three sacks and four interceptions with two brought back for touchdowns. He’ll contribute to the club’s multiple defensive back pack-ages. Gardner-Johnson’s played in eight games with two starts, recording 24 tackles (20 solo), six passes defensed and three special teams stops.

S Saquan Hampton, Rutgers (D6-19) - Selected in the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft out of Rutgers, the New Jersey native stayed home for college and played in 39 games with 27 starts in the Scarlet Knights secondary, as he posted career totals of 177 stops with five intercep-tions, 19 passes defensed and a fumble recovery. He opened all 12 games at free safety for the Scarlet Knights in 2018 and earned team Most Valuable Player honors with 65 stops, three picks, 13 passes defensed and one fumble recovery. Hampton has contributed on special teams in three contests.

DE Trey Hendrickson, Florida Atlantic (D3c-17) - This third round draft choice in the 2017 NFL Draft (103rd over-all) out of FAU brought his raw talent, size, strength and speed to a youthful Saints defensive line. Hendrickson is tied for third on the team with three sacks.

CB Marshon Lattimore, Ohio State (D1a-17) - The 11th overall selection in the 2017 NFL draft and the first corner taken possesses all the traits of a lockdown defender. With his agile, fluid style, Lattimore has the ability to shut down the best wide receivers. He played a critical role in the pass defense unit as a rookie, as he moved into the lineup immediately. For the 2017 season, he finished with 53 stops, five picks, to lead NFL rookies and the Saints, tying a team rookie record, a club-best 18 passes defensed, a forced fumble and a recovery. Lattimore was the first Saints corner selected to the Pro Bowl since 1995 and was selected as Associated Press Defensive Rookie of the Year. His five takeaways (two interceptions and three fum-ble recoveries) in 2018 led the team, adding two more picks in the NFC Divisional Playoff win. In the Sept. 22 win at Seattle, Lattimore led New Orleans with a career-high 12 tackles (career-high ten solo). In the Sept. 29 win over Dal-las, he covered Dallas WR Amari Cooper who managed only five receptions for 48 yards and in the Oct. 6 win vs. Tampa Bay, WR Mike Evans didn’t manage a catch, add-ing a pick in the October 13 win at the Jacksonville Jagu-ars.

DEFENSIVE DRAFTS

DT David Onyemata, Manitoba (D4-16) - Possessing a unique combination of size and speed, this Nigeria native had an impressive rookie year after becoming the first player from the University of Manitoba to be drafted into the NFL. Despite being new to football, the 2016 fourth round draft pick became a critical member on the interior of the Saints defensive front in 2017, playing in all 16 games with six starts, making 40 tackles and two sacks. Onyema-ta had a career-high 4.5 sacks in 2018, including a single-game career best three takedowns in last year’s matchup at Dallas, adding another fourth quarter takedown against the Cowboys, Sept. 29. Onyemata has provided a punch for the Saints defense, having started all ten games he has played in and recording 25 stops and three sacks to tied for third on the team.

DT Sheldon Rankins, Louisville (D1-16) - Selected 12th overall in the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft, the Georgia native played in 46 games along the line at Louisville from 2012-15, producing 133 total tackles, 31.5 tackles for loss and 18 sacks. In 2018, Rankins ranked second on the Saints with eight sacks, posting 42 stops and a forced fum-ble. Rankins ardently rehabilitated from a ruptured Achilles tendon suffered in the playoffs and returned in Week Four of 2019. He posted his first sack of the season in the Octo-ber 6 win over Tampa Bay.

Marcus Williams, Utah (D2-17) - A three-year starter at Utah, Williams was twice named All-Pac 12 and earned second-team All-American as a junior. In 2016, he tied for second in the conference with five interceptions. The de-fender boasts a dangerous mix of speed, fluidity, and in-stinct that allows him to read offenses and make breaks on the ball. His athleticism showed in his rookie season in as he made 70 tackles, four interceptions and six passes de-fensed in 15 games, adding ten more stops (seven solo) and another pick in the postseason. He posted a key inter-ception in the season-opening win vs. Houston and ended the Sept. 29 win over Dallas with a pick. Williams forced a fumble and led the club with two special teams stops in the Oct. 20 win at Chicago. Overall, he’s played in all 11 games with ten starts, posting 39 tackles (28 solo), the team-high four picks, 12 passes defensed, the forced fum-ble and two coverage stops. Williams has racked up the stat sheet in the past three weeks with 14 tackles, two in-terceptions, one returned 55 yards for a touchdown in the November 17 win at Tampa Bay and six passes defensed.

CB P.J. Williams, Florida State (D3b-15) - Williams’ ca-reer was initially limited by missing all but two games his first two seasons with injuries, but he’s rebounded to miss only one game since. An experienced starter from Florida

State, who developed into one of the nation’s top cover corners, he has made 31 stops (28 solo), a sack, an inter-ception and three passes defensed, serving as the team’s nickel corner for the second straight season.

STOPPING THE RUN

The Saints produced their most impressive run-stopping effort in several seasons in 2018 and have carried it over in 2019. Until Nov. 11, 2018 the club hadn’t surrendered 100 rushing yards to an opponent since the opener. The Saints had not held an opponent to under this point for seven consecutive games since 2007. Below are the long-est streaks in team history the defense has gone without surrendering 100 yards. New Orleans hasn’t allowed a 100-yard rusher in 37 straight games (regular season and postseason), surpassing the prior record set in the final 13 games of 2016 and the NFL’s longest current running streak, a run which has carried over to the first 11 games of 2019.

JUST KICKING IT

Between deep touchdown passes and athletic intercep-tions, players often use their hands to produce the game’s flashiest plays. However, players who use their feet often make the difference between winning and losing, drilling clutch field goals or flipping the field with a well-executed punt.

K Wil Lutz went undrafted in 2016, joining Baltimore for training camp. Prior to the start of the regular season, Lutz joined the Black and Gold and immediately took on placekicking and kickoff duties. Lutz has kicked in 59 games, converting 110-of-127 field goal attempts (86.6 per-cent) and 175-of-181 PATs. He’s also recorded 218 touch-backs on 339 career kickoffs. His 86.6 percent field goal percentage is best among kickers with at least 50 made field goals in team history. Until the 2018 regular season finale, he’d kicked a field goal in a club-record 36 consecu-tive games, second-longest streak in NFL history.

With his first field goal on Oct. 20 at Chicago, Lutz set the NFL record for consecutive field goals on the road (35).

SWISS ARMY KNIFE

New Orleans QB Taysom Hill, in his third year with the club, has brought unheralded versatility to the Saints on both of-fense and special teams. A participant on every special teams unit except field goal and PAT, as well as a signal-caller, runner and receiver on offense, In the 2018 regular season, Hill averaged 24.9 yards per return on 14 kickoff returns, had six coverage stops to rank second on the team, completed a ten-yard pass on a fake punt in Week Four and blocked a punt on December 9 at Tampa Bay. Overall in 2018, Hill carried 37 times for 196 yards (5.3 avg.), ranked third on the team with two touchdowns and completed three of seven passes for 64 yards. The blocked punt against the Buccaneers earned him Week 14 NFC Special Teams Play-er of the Week honors. In the 2018 postseason, he caught a touchdown, made a special teams tackle and executed a successful fake punt. In 2019, Hill has appeared in every contest, carrying 14 times for 94 yards (6.7 avg.), catching 11 passes for 102 yards with three touchdowns and return-ing one kickoff for 12 yards.

COVERAGE/BLOCK UNITS

New Orleans’ coverage units have been led the past three seasons by linebacker Craig Robertson, Hill and defensive

back Justin Hardee Sr..

Hardee led the team with nine stops and a blocked punt recovered for a touchdown as a rookie in 2017. In 2018, Hardee led the team in the regular season with a career-high ten stops, with Hill ranked second with six stops. He’s posted two tackles in 2019.

Robertson also made a big play in the November 4, 2018 win over Los Angeles when he stopped rams holder Johnny Hecker short of the first down marker on a fake field goal attempt. He did the same December 23 vs. Pittsburgh in a crucial fourth quarter situation to snuff out a fake punt at-tempt. Robertson has four special teams stops in 2019.

New Orleans’ punt coverage unit finished the regular sea-son ranked third in the National Football League, surrender-ing only 5.0 yards per return. The 60 punt return yards given up by the coverage units were the lowest in club record books, the lowest total in the NFL in 2018 and the fifth-lowest total since the 16-game schedule started in 1978.

TEDDY BRIDGEWATER

• With Drew Brees sidelined following thumb surgery, sixth-year veteran Teddy Bridgewater has taken over the reigns of the offense. Bridgewater began his NFL career with the Minnesota Vikings as the 32nd pick in the 2014 NFL Draft. He moved into the starters role in Week Four of his rookie season and went on to be selected the Pepsi NFL Rookie of the Year, leading the Vikings to the NFC North title the following season with a Pro Bowl selection. Overall, he has played in 42 games with 34 starts, completing 697-of-1,069 passes for 7,638 yards with 38 touchdowns, 25 intercep-tions and an 88.3 passer rating. Bridgewater has also car-ried 125 times for 45 yards with four touchdowns. In 34 career starts, Bridgewater has posted a 22-12 career rec-ord in the regular season.

• With starter Brees sidelined following thumb surgery for five games, the Miami native has played in seven games with five starts, completing 132-of-195 attempts (67.7%) for 1,370 yards with nine touchdowns, two interceptions and a 98.9 passer rating, while carrying 20 times for 39 yards and winning all five starts.

• Bridgewater received his first start of 2019 on Sept. 22 at Seattle and completed 19-of-27 passes for 177 yards with touchdown passes to Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas, zero interceptions and a 112.7 passer rating. He also car-ried three times for 12 yards in the 33-27 victory. It was Bridgewater’s first win since the 2015 regular season finale.

• Bridgewater quarterbacked New Orleans to its second consecutive win on Sept. 29 vs. Dallas, completing 23-of-30 passes for 193 yards and engineering a 15-play, 67-yard drive that spanned 9:06 and ran into the fourth quar-ter, resulting in a go ahead field goal in rebounding from a 10-9 deficit, completing three-of-four passes for 22 yards. It was his first fourth quarter game-winning drive since a 21-18 win vs. The St. Louis Rams on Nov. 8, 2015.

Below are several of Marshon Lattimore’s 2019 defensive highlights.

In a 33-27 win at Seattle, Dec. 22, Lattimore posted a ca-reer-high 12 tackles (career-high ten solo) and one pass defensed.

ELI APPLE

• The tenth overall pick of the New York Giants in the 2016 NFL Draft out of Ohio State and a former teammate in the Buckeyes defensive backfield with Lattimore and Vonn Bell, since being acquired by New Orleans, Bell has made a positive impact in the Saints secondary.

• Williams has opened 2019 in impressive fashion, record-ing a key third quarter pick in the Monday night win over Houston and posting a pick at the end of the Sept. 29 win vs. Dallas. Following seven tackles, a pick and a career-high four passes defensed, Williams has posted 39 stops, four picks, to picks, tied for third in the NFL, 12 passes defensed, tied for the team lead, the forced fumble and the two coverage stops.

VONN BELL

• Bell left onlookers impressed with his 2016 rookie cam-paign. Playing in every game with 14 starts, he totaled 98 tackles (59 solo), second on the team, four passes de-fensed, a sack, two forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery. Selected in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft (61st overall), Bell was a consensus first-team All-American as a junior at Ohio State. In 59 career games with 43 starts, he’s posted 333 tackles, seven sacks, one interception 16 pass-es defensed, seven forced fumbles and six fumble recover-ies.

• Bell is ranked second on the team with 70 tackles, his first pick, and has a club-best four fumble recoveries, which is tied for first in the National Football League and the most by a Saint since safety Sammy Knight’s five in 2001.

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS VS CAROLINA PANTHERS SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2019 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME

SAINTS POSTGAME NOTES

With the win, the Saints improve to 9-2 and clinch a winning record for the 14th time in franchise history and the eighth time since Sean Payton became head coach in 2006. The Saints have now had a winning record in each of the last three seasons, the third such stretch in franchise history (joining 1987-89 and 2009-11). The Saints return to action on Thursday, November 28 when they take on the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, GA. Kickoff is set for 7:20 PM on Thanksgiving night.

With the win, New Orleans’ improves its all-time regular season record against Carolina to 24-25 and 12-12 in games played in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. Including a 2017 Wild Card Playoff victory over Carolina, the Saints even up their all-time record against the Panthers at 25-25 and improve their record against Carolina to 13-12 in games played in their home stadium.

With the win, Payton improves his regular record against Carolina to 13-12 and now has a winning record against all three NFC South opponents. Payton’s record against Panthers Head Coach Ron Rivera improves to 9-6 (regular season only).

The victory is the 135th of Payton’s career, including postseason play, which moves him into a tie with Mike McCarthy for 27th all-time in NFL record books.

Offensively, New Orleans amassed 418 total yards, including 300 passing yards and 118 rushing yards. With 34 points, New Orleans has scored at least 30 points in seven of their 11 games this season.

Defensively, New Orleans held Carolina RB Christian McCaffery to 64 yards on 22 carries (2.9 avg.). The Saints have not allowed a 100-yard rusher in 37 consecutive games, including postseason play.

K Wil Lutz converted a game-winning 33-yard field goal as time expired, capping off a Saints’ 11-play, 65-yard drive, that used the games’ final 1:56. The game winner was Lutz’s second such field goal this season (Lutz converted a 58-yarder as time expired to defeat the Houston Texans on opening night). Lutz finished the game 2-for-2 on field goal attempts and became only the fourth Saint in franchise history to amass 500 career points by converting a 41-yard field goal with 13:39 to play in the second quarter.

WR Michael Thomas finished the game with 10 receptions for 101 yards and one touchdown, moving his season totals to 104 receptions and 1,242 yards. Thomas becomes only the fifth player in NFL history to have at least 100 receptions and 1,200 receiving yards in three consecutive seasons, joining Antonio Brown, Marvin Harrison, Herman Moore, and Jerry Rice.

With 101 yards today, Thomas’ has now caught for 5,029 yards in his career, joining Marques Colston, Eric Martin, and Joe Horn as only the fourth player with 5,000 receiving yards as a member of the New Orleans Saints.

Thomas has now recorded at least 100 receiving yards in five consecutive games, becoming the first player in franchise history to accomplish the feat, surpassing TE Jimmy Graham, who did it in four consecutive contests two times (2011 and 2013). Thomas’ seven 100-yard receiving games this season sets a new franchise record for 100-yard games in a season.

Thomas’ 104 receptions through the first 11 games of this season surpasses Marvin Harrison’s 100 receptions in 2002 for the most receptions through a team’s first 11 games of a season.

Thomas has now recorded at least eight receptions and 100 receiving yards in five consecutive games, becoming only the fourth player in NFL history to do so in a single season (Isaac Bruce, 6 in 1995; Anquan Boldin, 5 in 2005; Calvin Johnson, 5 in 2012).

Thomas recorded six receptions for 49 yards in the first quarter, the most first quarter receptions by a Saint since Eric Martin in 1991.

Appearing in his 270th career game, QB Drew Brees passed for 311 yards on 30-of-39 passing, adding three touchdowns and one interception. Brees’ 270 career games played moves him into a tie with TE Tony Gonzalez for 24th on the NFL all-time games played list.

Page 124: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WEEKLY MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE€¦ · New Orleans hosts the 10-1 San Francisco 49ers on De-cember 8 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday’s effort in all three

A week after recording ten receptions on ten targets, RB Alvin Kamara recorded nine receptions on nine targets for 48 receiving yards. Kamara added 54 rushing yards on 11 carries, marking his sixth game this season with at least 20 touches.

RB Latavius Murray rushed for a touchdown on the Saints’ opening drive of the game, marking the first time in 2019 New Orleans scored a touchdown on its opening drive. Murray finished the afternoon with 64 yards on seven carries, good for a season-high 9.1 yards per carry.

TE Jared Cook finished the afternoon with six receptions for a season-high 99 yards, including a 20-yard touchdown reception with 11:24 to play in the third quarter. Cook has now scored touchdowns in back-to-back games for the first time since scoring touchdowns in Weeks 11,12, and 13 of 2018 as a member of the Oakland Raiders.

DE Demario Davis recorded his second sack of the year and has now recorded at least two takedowns in each of the past six seasons. Davis finished the afternoon with a team-leading 11 tackles, one quarterback hit, one pass defense, and the sack.

DE Marcus Davenport recorded his fourth sack of 2019 and first since Week 5 vs. Tampa Bay, taking down Panthers QB Kyle Allen with 2:10 to play in the fourth quarter. Davenport finished the day with three tackles, one quarterback hit, and the sack.

Playing in his 182nd career game, WR Ted Ginn Jr. caught two passes for 38 yards, including the Saints’ longest pass play of the game, a 30-yard catch with 11:37 to play in the first quarter.

In the secondary, S Vonn Bell and CB CJ Gardner-Johnson recorded nine and six tackles, respectively. Bell added a stop for loss and one pass defense on the afternoon.

WR Tre’Quan Smith scored his second touchdown of the season, and first since Week 1, on a 13-yard reception from Brees with 5:12 to play in the first quarter.

DT Mario Edwards Jr. recorded his first sack since Week 12 of 2018 (as a member of the New York Giants), forcing a fumble by Allen with 4:36 to play in the second quarter.

Appearing in his 139th career game, DE Cameron Jordan finished with five tackles and one tackle for loss. Jordan moves into a tie with DE Will Smith for 19th on the club’s all-time games played list.

P Thomas Morstead averaged 49.3 yards on three punts, including a long of 54 yards. Morstead has now played in 169 games in his career, moving him into a tie with Jahri Evans for tenth place on the club’s all-time list.

S J.T. Gray had a first quarter fumble recovery off of a muffed punt that following a replay challenge reversal, gave New Orleans possession at the Carolina 27-yard line to eventually lead to a Saints touchdown.

The victory is the 202nd home win in Saints franchise history, including games played at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, Tulane Stadium, San Antonio’s Alamodome, and London’s Wembley Stadium. New Orleans improves its all-time home record to 209-208-1, including regular and postseason play.

The Saints’ extended their streak to 283 consecutive games without having been shut out, dating back to a 26-20 victory at Tampa Bay on September 6, 2002. The streak is the longest running streak in the NFL and fourth longest in league history.

CAROLINA PANTHERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2019 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME

SAINTS HEAD COACH SEAN PAYTON

(opening statement) “Obviously we had a hard-fought game. There are lot of things that we have to clean up. I was proud of how we fought back and hung in there. We made enough plays in the two-minute drill. That was significant. Getting the stop defensively to force a field goal was big. There's a tone that we have to build and clean up from this game. The challenge is doing it over (a) short week, getting ready to play Thursday.”

(on overcoming penalties) “It wasn't our best game and by far it wasn't their best game. It is what it is. I’m not going to get into the replays relative to the fouls. The change that took place in the offseason. I don't know that it's exactly what we discussed where we are today with it. In fact, I'm pretty sure it's not, but we've got to be able to adjust.”

(on focusing on and improving small details) “There were some pre-snap penalties. Too many hands to the face defensively, too many penalties in the back end. There's a handful of times we had third and long. We got the late personal foul on Cam (Jordan). We are going to need to be smarter in bigger games.”

(on running the two-minute drill) “I think at the end of the half or the end of the game, they are going to end that way. Usually the question is do they end defensively or offensive way for the most part. That's something that Drew (Brees) had been doing this a long time and he's awfully good at it”

(on the second game winner for Wil Lutz) “He’s been real impressive in clutch situations and that's what you're looking for. So much is not only the leg talent but it’s the talent between your ears and I think it’s a strength of his.”

(on the injuries from both teams) “It’s part of the game. It’s a physical game. I know both teams played hard. It wasn’t always the cleanest game. There’s a lot of respect between the two clubs and we've been in some tough battles with those guys.

(on giving up a two-score lead in the game) “Everything concerns me. The fouls concern me, the change of possession snaps, the fourth down and a yard (rushing failure), a lot of those things. Absolutely. We’re concerned. We have to get it corrected and cleaned up and that’s why we’re coaching.”

(on if there was an emphasis to get Alvin Kamara the ball in the second half) “There's going to be certain things that we want to try to do. He made a number of big plays for us, so whether they come in the running game or the passing game. The same way with Latavius Murray. He had a big touchdown early. Some of it is the byproduct of what we're doing and some of that, there are intentions behind it.”

(on Jared Cook’s performance) “He received some good matchups. The throw Drew (Brees) made on one of his touchdowns, it was a big play. He played exceptionally well. He's moving around, while he's been doing that in practice (the whole season) and I'm proud of him. He made a heck of a catch above his head. He just seemed like if you threw it his way, he was coming down with it. Against a team that plays a lot of the trap zone, your tight end is going to have some of those opportunities.”

(on the development of Latavius Murray) “We’ve seen it more than just today. We saw it when Alvin (Kamara) was hurt. I knew coming in he was a real good teammate. I knew that the film we had seen was really productive. You don’t realize how big he is until you see him in person. He’s been a really good addition to this team filling in for a really good player that left.

(on his impression of Christian McCaffrey) “He’s a real good football player. The more space or more air you give him, the more challenging it is. You have to find a way to take some of the air out of those tackles (and) take some of the air out of the coverage. There are a few plays where we could have defended better. I'm sure we will the next time.” (on if he was surprised about the overturned pass interference call) “You can’t control it and you just have to evaluate your own gut. Even the muffed punt was tough with the angles. We finally received one angle where you could see it kind of hit the floor early, the back of the calf. I was concerned that there wasn't a clear visual angle until I saw that one. You have to trust your gut. That was our second challenge, so we were out a challenges, but that was significant because obviously it is a turnover. We score a touchdown or, if you say a challenge is worth a touchdown, which I think it would be, but the earlier one I just disagree with. I thought it was a real good route.”

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS VS CAROLINA PANTHERS SUNDAY, NOV. 24, 2019 ● MERCEDES BENZ SUPERDOME

SAINTS QUARTERBACK DREW BREES (On the final drive) “Just playing the situation. Knowing how much time you have, knowing we have one timeout, knowing that all we have to do is get in field goal range and we feel good about our chances. Just want a chance to win in the end. At the end of the day, the whole game was really back and forth. Got to give them a ton of credit. They came in and really battled both sides of the ball and it was back and forth. I would say it was a hard-fought football game. I would say for us, as I think about just that fourth quarter, we basically gave them the ball, interception and fourth down stop at mid-field or better for them, and obviously as I look back on that as an offense and say, that can’t happen. We can allow that to happen. It felt like there were some other opportunities during the course of the game that we missed or just didn’t capitalize on, some unforced errors. Listen, it’s not always going to be perfect and in fact I’d say to gut out a win like this with a team is pretty significant. I think it just continues to strengthen the team and gives you a ton of confidence. Also (it) let’s us know that our best is still out there. We are still searching for that best game.” (On not having as much rhythm in the second half as in the first half) “We started off with I think two touchdowns, right? Fast start, we were talking about that and we need to improve on that. I think we made strides toward that today and guys coming up with some big plays. It was a combination of big plays and was just good complementary football, a good balance. There was a sequence there at the end of the first half where we stopped them on defense and then we get the penalty, and I’m thinking there was maybe seven minutes left in the half, something like that at that point. They get it and go all the way down and score. Otherwise, they’re punting to us and maybe we’re going on a drive and getting points and not letting them back on the field. When you look at the entirety of the game, you have to look at all these little things where that was tough for us because we allowed them to stay on the field; not only that, but they went down and got a touchdown. And they didn’t allow us to get the ball back and they get the ball to start the second half. So as an offense you feel like, it’s about an hour before we got to snap, between snaps. Lot of little things that take place during the course of the game that make the games unique.” (on the discrepancy in official’s penalty calling) “Well, penalties are judgement calls and then I think we, as a league, competition committee, everyone tried to build in certain mechanisms to be able to make sure we get it right. I think the thing that’ll be discussed probably for the rest of the season and onwards is, pass interference. What is and what is not. It was kind of my impression, based on what I’ve seen this year, is they’re not going to overturn anything unless it’s like what happened in the NFC Championship, where it’s a total timing thing and prevents the tragedy. Now one got overturned today. That’s one out of I don’t know how many that haven’t. That was interesting. Why that one versus some others. Again, at some point, there is someone that’s making a judgement call, a human decision that’s being made. It’s impossible for that to always be consistent.” (On knowing when Michael Thomas has broken down a defender) “You’re referencing everything throughout the course of the game. That formation, that alignment, that release pattern, what did they see, how did they react to it, what can you kind of keep in your back pocket for later on. That’s the game within the game.”

Page 128: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WEEKLY MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE€¦ · New Orleans hosts the 10-1 San Francisco 49ers on De-cember 8 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday’s effort in all three

(On two-minute drills) “It is exciting and butterflies, but it is also confidence and unity. We feel like everybody knows we have a challenge ahead. Everybody knows what we need to do in order to accomplish whatever we need to accomplish to go win the game. Everybody kind of just locks in and goes. It’s where a lot of the things that happen and transpire over the course of the game kind of give you that information, that confidence, that assurance on how you’re going to handle that drive and how you’re going to accomplish the task.” (On how the offense will prepare for Thursday night’s game in Atlanta) “As I recall, it wasn’t too long ago obviously, they got after us a little bit on the pass rush. We weren’t very balanced offensively. We didn’t run the ball that many times and we didn’t run as effectively as I know we can. I think anytime we take the field, regardless of who the opponent is, we want be balanced. We want to be efficient. We want to convert third downs, make big plays when we have the opportunity. Score points and win games.” (On Wil Lutz) “Ton of confidence (in him) and just that whole unit. That whole unit in the time that we’ve all been here together, and he’s been our kicker, we’ve had plenty of those moments. I think it’s one of those things where Carolina has the ball at the end of the game and they’re driving and (the) defense believes that they’re going to stop them, and they do. Field goal block unit says, we’re going to somehow effect this and they miss it. Offense says, we’re going to go down and give our kicker and our kicking unit a chance to win this game, we do, and they step up and make it. It’s a team effort.”

CAROLINA PANTHERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2019

NEW ORLEANS SAINTS PLAYERS

K #3 WIL LUTZ

(on the game winning kick) “Like I said last time (in the Week One walk-off field goal) with our offense, quarterback and play-calling, they advance the ball. I told Drew (Brees) thanks for making it a little shorter this time. We continue to find a way to win when we are not really playing our best. It is a big team win and now we are off to a short week in Atlanta. I actually didn’t hit the ball too well. My heart kind of sank a little bit to be honest. At the end of the day it was good (win) and a nice win.”

(on a kicker recovering from three missed kicks such as Panthers K Joey Slye did today for Carolina) “You hate it. Obviously, it is part of the game. Specialists are such a tight knit community. You don’t want to win because a specialist screws up. It’s hard to swallow as a specialist to see him go through that. I think he is a tremendous kicker. I told him that before the game. He has a bright future. He will bounce back and be good.”

(on the defensive stand at the end to force the missed field goal) “It was big. It was the reason that we won the game. We play complementary football. When one side of the football isn’t doing well, then the other side picks them up. We found a way to win when we all were not super confident at the end. It was a big play by the defense and I am glad that they got it.”

DE #92 MARCUS DAVENPORT

(on his move on the missed field goal by Carolina) “It’s just a move. I’m just practicing it and trying to make it consistent.” (on how long he has practiced the move) “I cannot tell you. It was not the first time that I used it today. It just worked.”

(on the third down sack) “It was good to be able to make it. Of course, I think about all of the other ones that I missed. Anytime that I can help the team win is great.”

DE #94 CAMERON JORDAN

(on his personal foul penalty) “I finally came around the corner of the tackle. I saw Demario Davis had the quarterback wrapped up. Immediately, I knew he (Kyle Allen) was going to swing around. I was trying to punch the ball out. The whistle blew and I came off it. The personal foul happens. That is a bonehead move. I heard that whistle and tried to stop, but it ended up hurting the team. As fast as we go, we try to give 100 percent on every play. You can’t end up hurting y our team like that, so that’s on me. It was a straight punch to the ball, but that is something that I have to be aware of. I’m trying to make a big play and ended up hurting the team. That is something that I have to deal with myself.” (on Marcus Davenport’s huge game) “That was huge. The way he is playing. He is getting faster and faster every game. He ended up making a huge play. It doesn’t matter where it comes from as long as it comes.”

WR #13 MICHAEL THOMAS

(on the third down play at the end of the game on the game-winning drive) “That’s what I am here for. I’m here to help my team win. I wanted to move the chains. I get so excited to make a play. I want to be the ultimate team player and make a play for my guys. The game was tied. We were going back and forth. We needed a play and I was able to make that.” (on if he was surprised on being wide open) “I got open. I was able to get open. I give credit to the coaches for the preparation during the week.” (on being comfortable in the two-minute drill such as in today’s win) “I was very comfortable. We still have a lot of room for improvement. We practice it all (training) camp. We get tired. We go against the defense and compete. We prepare for that situation week in and week out. I’m just grateful for not cheating the preparation.”

Page 130: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WEEKLY MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE€¦ · New Orleans hosts the 10-1 San Francisco 49ers on De-cember 8 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday’s effort in all three

TE #87 JARED COOK

(on the third quarter touchdown reception) “We got the matchup that we wanted. The defender feathered over the ball and stayed on top of me. It was kind of an out and up right on the inside edge of the numbers. He just got lost. The ball went right over the top of his head. He didn’t even see it and I snuck into the back of the end zone.” (on the pass interference call) “First of all, I appreciate Coach (Sean) Payton challenging it (even thought it was upheld). We lost a timeout which is huge in a game like this. It was man-to-man and the defender had outside leverage. He stayed on the numbers (and) created contact first. I’m trying to get him off of me to release back inside. When I released back inside, he just fell. It’s a matchup game and that’s what we are here to do. We are here to create matchups and take advantage of those matchups. What happens after that is not my fault. That’s all I can say about it.”

CAROLINA PANTHERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2019 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME

PANTHERS HEAD COACH RON RIVERA

(On message to players in locker room) “I just told them to continue to learn to fight. That is what it came down to. It really was a good ole’ fashioned fight. They fought, they responded, gave them(selves) a chance. Unfortunately, we didn’t win it. That is all you can say to them. They gave everything they can. I really appreciate the effort we got.”

(On if he has talked to Joey Slye) “No, I haven’t had the chance to Joey yet. So much has happened since the time the game has been over. I will get an opportunity.”

(On what he will say to Joey) “I don’t know yet.”

(On if this is just the life of an NFL kicker) “It is most certainty. He will get his opportunities though. He will make some that will help us win. That is the thing he has to understand. This is all part of it. Let’s not forget that this is really his first year. That is one thing a lot of people don’t understand. He is a young kicker. He is going to make his mistakes, but if you give him time and stick with him, eventually he will become a good kicker. Hopefully, he will become a good, old kicker.”

(On fumble on muffed punt) “It was a terrible kick, okay. Normally, (Thomas) Morstead kills the ball, and for whatever reason he didn’t get a very good punt off. So, what happened was our jammer was in position trying to jam and slow the guy down, and D.J. (Moore) was coming over. It was one of those things. It was not a typical kick. It was a little shorter than he normally kicks it, little less hangtime, and we had a guy trying to (inaudible).”

(On Kyle Allen’s performance today against the Saints) “We gave Kyle time. Our offensive line did some good things. Again, credit to them, they (Saints) rushed the passer. When Kyle has time with a fairly good pocket, he can make good decisions. He threw the ball well. It was unfortunate to get a couple opportunities on defense, and we missed those as well. It’s a team game in all three phases. When something happens, you usually end up on the wrong side.”

(On DJ Moore’s fighting through pain and his performance) “For a second-year player, he was great. He stepped up. We needed him out there and he went out there. Hats off to him. If young guys learn how to win, you are going to be a good team, and I believe DJ knows how to win. Again, hopefully we understand what it takes and continue to grow.”

(On pass interference challenge at the end of the game) “The biggest you have is if the ball is in the air, and they said yes. Jerry (Jarius Wright) said to me “Coach, if they don’t grab me, I will run through it and catch that ball.” So, that is why I challenged it. With Sam telling me upstairs, as well, “Hey, I saw it. It looked like the ball was gone Coach.” So, we challenged it.”

(On flag getting picked up on last missed field goal) “Yeah, I couldn’t see it. That is one those things you can’t jump with leverage. You can block a guy down, but you can’t grab him and pull him down. JJ (Hansen) said he got grabbed by the back of the helmet, and created that leverage and all that type of stuff. I don’t know, I didn’t see it. So, we will have to see. We will take a look at the tape and go from there. Again, credit to both teams. Both teams played and unfortunately we didn’t come out on top.”

(On not scoring touchdown on last drive) “Well, we had some things that we thought would be really good, but again they made a play and we didn’t. So, you have to give them credit for that.”

(On adjustments made to come back from early deficit) “The biggest thing was when we were gap sound, we were able to stop their running game. That’s something I’ve been talking about. As long as we’re the team we’re supposed to be and do our responsibilities, we can shut the run down. We had a couple of really good plays as far as the run defense was concerned. Unfortunately, every now and then we get anxious and we don’t stay as disciplined as we need to be. We did do some of those

Page 132: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WEEKLY MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE€¦ · New Orleans hosts the 10-1 San Francisco 49ers on De-cember 8 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday’s effort in all three

things, and made some adjustments. We were trying to pay attention to 13 and then they went to 87. Kudos to Drew (Brees) for reading what we were doing. Then they tried to stretch us with Ted Ginn (Jr.), but Donte (Jackson) came up and made a good play for us. Eric Reid made a couple of nice plays as well. Then the interception. Tre (Boston) had a good beat on the ball. It is one of those things if he didn’t run into the guy, maybe he catches it and returns it for a touchdown. Well, we gave ourselves a chance, and that is the best thing you ask for.”

(On irony of winning pass interference challenge in the place where it was the inspiration for the pass interference challenge rule) “Yeah, it is the whole point of it. That is why the rule was put into place. When you get into an egregious situation like that, that they can correct it and rectify it. I’m glad it worked that way.”

CAROLINA PANTHERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2019 ● MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME

CAROLINA PANTHERS PLAYERS

QB #7 KYLE ALLEN

(On Saints Defense): “We were just taking what they gave us. They played a lot of two-high. They were trying to keep everything in front of them, so we were just taking what they give us.”

(On his play): “I felt like I did. I felt like I put it together a little more today. It’s like I said earlier, taking what they give you. That’s not something I was doing good the past couple weeks. We took what they gave us. We had a lot of long sustained drives and really big plays. We gave ourselves a chance to win at the end.

“It is incredibly frustrating. It does not matter how you play. At the end of the day when they look back on the season it’s going to be a loss. There’s going to be no asterisk saying they almost won. It’s a loss. Its frustrating. We’ve just got to put it all together and come together as a team. Some weeks it’s been offense, some weeks it’s been defense. We’ve just got to put it together and play a complete game.”

(On post-game talk to Joey Slye): “I told him I was in the exact same spot he was last week. I told him ‘We’re going to need you down the line.’ For throwing four picks last week, I didn’t give us a chance to win the game at all. I told him, ‘Look man, it’s going to happen, especially in kickers’ careers. You see it from every kicker. People go through slumps sometimes. People miss kicks. It’s not a big deal. We’ve got to pick it up.’ It’s like I said, we’ve got to pick up slack. If people are slacking other people have to pick it up. It’s a team game. I told him there were numerous other things in the game that could have went other ways. If we would have made plays on offense, if (the) defense would have made a couple more plays, he wouldn’t have been put in that position. It’s not on him.”

(On DJ Moore): “I don’t know what happened to his arm or his elbow, but I saw the replay as we were going in and it looked gross. For him to come out there and make that big play in the second half, and continue to make big plays the whole game, it speaks volumes.”

“Execution, it all comes down to execution. The talent and the stuff that we do during the week into. Sunday, its executing. We’ve got to find a way to put it all together and not make little mistakes. You see teams like the Saints and teams like the Packers, the really good teams that we’ve played, they don’t make those mistakes. We’ve just got to keep trying to play mistake free football and give us a chance to win. When we don’t hurt ourselves were a really good team.”

PK #4 JOEY SLYE

“Coming into this week, I had a great week of preparation. The pre-game was probably one of the best pre-games I had kicking in the dome. I was on-line. I was hitting well. I just ended up losing it at some point. I’ll just have to look back on the tape and see what I did wrong. I just have to keep working to see how I can improve those mistakes.”

“If I’m pushing right, that means I’m having an issue planting my feet. I need to make sure that my timing is right. Again, I will have to look at the film to see what I did wrong. I have got to be better than that. I felt like my timing was fine. I have been working on it really hard again this week. Coming into the game I felt very confident. Going into the kicks I felt very confident. Then, obviously, it was missed. I felt confident. Every one of those kicks I went into with the same mindset. The results were obviously different. I have to look back on my technique and work on it from there.”

RB #22 CHRISTIAN McCAFFREY

“It’s another tough one. It hurts. It sucks, but we’ve still got games left. Once again our approach has to be the same.”

“We fought hard. The only thing you can do is move forward. The great teams, the teams that go far, are the ones that win those. We have a great team and have to find a way quick to start doing that.”

(On DJ Moore): “The guy takes a hard shot in the arm on the sideline. We all knew he was hurting but he keeps fighting back and breaks a. long. One and continues to fight. It’s never an effort issue for us. It’s an execution issue.”

Page 134: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WEEKLY MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE€¦ · New Orleans hosts the 10-1 San Francisco 49ers on De-cember 8 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday’s effort in all three

(On Saints defense): “It’s a team game and I thought we moved the ball well. We put up 31 and could have had a few more. At the end of the day, we have to score more than them.”

(On Kyle Allen): “He’s a fighter. The guy comes out there and doesn’t blink. We love playing with him. He’s a heck of a quarterback. He put the ball where it was supposed to go, and guys came up and made some catches and made some plays.”

“Me and Kyle have a good feel. We talk during the week about certain coverages and what we want to do against it, and he did a great job distributing the ball.”

DT #93 GERALD McCOY

“As a leader, all I can do is try to lead the guys and lead by example. Talking is over with. It’s time to start doing. Were too good for this. Its frustrating. I don’t care how good the Saints are. Let me take that back, the Saints are a great team. That’s why they win so much. They’re not a good team, they’re a great team. Were a good team too. We have to just be better. Especially me.”

“I’m always going to treat every opportunity as such. I always look at it as an opportunity and privilege, never a right, to be on an NFL team or play on Sundays. To be in a division as strong as this one, or to play against a team that’s great, it’s always great. I’m always going to be happy regardless. I know that were better than what were showing. That’s the frustrating part.”

“We were way better than what were showing. It’s as simple as that. I know people say you are what your record shows but were better than what we’re showing. I know that for sure. I’m not going to say it’s on injuries, forget that. Its next man up. We’ve just got to be better.”

(On playing defense after the missed field goal): “You are not going to take the field thinking you are not going to stop them. I don’t care who is back there. I don’t care if Tom Brady or Drew Brees is throwing the football to Jerry Rice all day. I do not care who it is. When you take the field, you expect to win that situation. That’s why I said we have to be better. We know who we’re facing. That’s a first ballot Hall of Fame quarterback we’re facing. So what? We’re in the NFL too. You always take the field expecting to win. Always.”

  Pool Reporter Larry Holder Interview with Senior Vice President of Officiating Al Riveron  (On the play with 2:26 left in the fourth quarter where an on‐field ruling of no defensive pass interference was overturned upon review)  Holder: Can you take me through your thought process on overturning the ruling of no defensive pass interference late in the fourth quarter?  Riveron: “The ruling on the field initially was an incomplete pass. Carolina challenges the ruling on the field. They were looking for defensive pass interference. After reviewing it, it was clear and obvious through visual evidence that the defender significantly hinders the receiver while the ball is in the air, therefore, it’s defensive pass interference.”   Holder: What would be the difference between defensive pass interference and holding on that play?  Riveron: “Well, remember holding is not reviewable. In this situation, obviously they’re challenging DPI. If we can see the ball in the air when the contact takes place, then we know that we’re looking at DPI. Had the contact taken place prior to the ball going in the air – when the quarterback still had the ball – then the on‐field ruling would not have been changed because it’s not DPI.”

Saints Head Coach Sean Payton Monday, November 25, 2019 Conference Call With New Orleans Media With one of the preseason goals being right at the doorstep, winning the divisions title, is that even a subject to be broached this week at all? “The players know and we briefly touched on it last week. This week you’re careful (about) how much information you want to give (them). The players know and yet this week’s about rest, recovery, a quick turnaround, so there's no elaborate presentations. Our players understand the importance of getting this next win, but we also know it's a tough road game in the division and we're going to have to play a lot better than we did the last time.” Because it is an opponent you just played, does that help it being a short week? “I think that’s fair to say for both teams. More and more you see these divisional opponents, you know the personnel. You just met with your pro department relative to the last time and we get updated on injuries. Both teams I'm sure will (do the same). And then, you are looking at what did we do poorly (on Sunday), what do we need to improve on. I think it's important that the focal point is allowing our guys to play fast and in a short period of time, getting them off their feet and rested as best we can.” The hands to the face penalty – is that technique at all? “We have to as coaches be better. It’s a pretty clear, I think it’s an easy call to make for an official in other words. It can go for or against you. If you're an offensive lineman and your hand gets up in the defender's face mask and it stays, in other words, as opposed to there's going to be times where there's movement. It's not just defensive linemen, it comes up in other position groups, but it is something that we have to be better on from a technique standpoint.” What about the topic of penalties in general. They come in so many different forms, but this has not really been an issue that I remember for your team in the past years. “It's concerning. It's troubling. I mentioned it in the staff meeting. There are a handful of them I would disagree with. That’s going to be the case each week and we're going to play a different opponent down the road and it's going to cost us in a bigger game. We've got to work on that. And that starts certainly with me and our staff. That is something that we have to definitely improve on.” What can you say about your team’s resiliency this year? You've obviously had a lot of injuries, adversity. You had some adversity, situational adversity yesterday and were still able to get the win. “Most importantly we were able to get the win. We can’t look past some of the things that need to be addressed so that in a later game it doesn’t come back to bite us. With that all being said that was a good, grit win. You're developing your team as the season progresses. We fought hard. There are some guys battling some nagging injuries, hung in there and still played. You find a way to win a game. The two-minute drill by Drew

(Brees) was outstanding. It was outstanding just the execution of it and our defense being able to get a stop there and force a field goal and then take advantage of the miss. It reminded me a little bit about ’09 when (Shaun Suisham for) Washington at the end of regulation pushed it wide right. This was after (Robert) Meachem’s play, we got to overtime and won a tough game. I was proud that we fought through it and we were able to get a win.” What did you see from Patrick Omameh when he went in after Terron (Armstead went down? “I’m watching it now. He’s done a good job. He's improved. He's someone that we really noticed throughout the course of the season, even when he's getting reps on the scout team and he's a real good athlete and he hung in there.” When you were scouting Jared Cook in the offseason, what were you looking for and how did you approach that? Were you approaching it as if you were looking for a receiver? “I think he has versatility, but you saw the receiving skills. I thought Jon (Gruden) did a very good job with him at Oakland. The ability to run after the catch, which we saw yesterday (is an important element). We felt that element was important for us opposite of Mike (Thomas).” Is there any significance to playing on Thanksgiving at all for you or is it just kind of another game? “It's another game. I think after you've done this a while you could use to maneuvering holidays. Thanksgiving and Christmas are tough in this industry. When you have young kids, you're pretending Christmas is on a Tuesday, the 21st and they don't know any better. And then Thanksgiving, always provided a consistent Thursday, you can work around that as a coach with the weekend games. Now when you're playing on Thursday, then you adjust your schedule and you have it yesterday or whatever. The memories of Thanksgiving for me as a kid growing up that there always were a couple games in Dallas, Detroit. It's a short week and you prepare accordingly. It is a national TV game. I don't know how many of those we've played this year, six or seven. I think it's important for the players. They know there are a lot of people that are watching that had some influence in where these guys are at now, where I'm at as a coach and you want to do well.” I'm curious about your thoughts -- you mentioned you'd like to see (the officials) have more than say, give Al Riveron some help in New York. “I think it's real simple. It doesn't have to be a committee. I don't like committees., I just think it's quiet and singular. Any one of us gets forced with making decisions just by ourselves in our own profession. When you look around at college and the CFL, you see a triangle of experts that, you're going to find a more consistent and the ability to reference prior calls. I know when we put together a third down plan, I might have a few ideas, but I'm going to ask Pete (Carmichael) or Joe (Lombardi), ‘what do you guys think?’ That interaction man helps you arrive at better decisions and I think clearly we

would benefit from that. Sunday is a long day. I was back home in the evening and then there are the evening games on and I just think it'll help with a more consistent decision.” Gene Steratore agreed with you on the broadcast yesterday. Is that something the competition committee could visit in the offseason? “Absolutely, but I don't know that it's competition. It's just something we've discussed. It's not new relative to anyone making decisions. We don't have one Supreme Court Justice. Three experts that can look at things and begin to…I think it'll help immensely. Al (Riveron) is outstanding. I think he's got a tough job and I think when you have a group of three you're going to arrive at more consistent calls.” I was curious about a play late in the final two-minute drive that was thrown to Ted Ginn. Was that a throw that Drew (Brees) was just off or was there something that he was seeing? “We've hit that throw before and Drew's hit that throw before and it was a great read. We were in a tight formation. Ted took the top off the coverage and it was just a subtle angle change were Gin’s angle was a little bit flatter than Drew's throw. And sometimes when you're throwing the ball before the receiver has actually hit his angle, you know, there's that assumption the angle's going to be set in one direction. It was set just a little flatter. It had a chance to be a big play, I mean a touchdown and then again, that just gets to Drew doing a good job. He's, he's getting rid of the ball. He's not going to take a sack. And in order to do that there's a ‘I'm throwing it before he's broken.’ We probably hadn't thrown enough of those or gotten those looks, but it was one where, that play has come open before from that formation where we've hit Meachem or Henderson. It was just a timing issue. It ended up hindsight being a good thing because they would have had the ball back then with an opportunity to come back and we were able to use up the rest of the clock, but just a timing issue.” Saints TE Jared Cook Monday, November 25, 2019 Conference Call With New Orleans Media You haven't played in Atlanta in a little while. Are you excited to go home? “Yes. A little bit. I know there's a task at hand and we to have handle business first. It is going to be cool playing there, but I'm kind of focused on the game right now and just focused on getting the job done.” Are you looking forward to getting the opportunity to win the division and be division champs with four games left in the regular season? “It’s a huge opportunity. I think everybody understands the task that is at hand going into this week, but we can't let that overwhelm or let that be our sole focus. We have to focus on going in and getting this game against a good Atlanta team that we already

took a loss to earlier this season, so the little things are really going to matter this week, especially with being such a short week. Really only two days to practice. We have to have a mindset and the focus that's unmatched this week. These last few games you've been really productive. What do you kind of attribute that uptick in production to? “Just kind of coming off an injury, opportunities, being able to work with Drew (Brees) a little more and him finding me a little bit further downfield or finding me in open pockets that will give me the ball in my hands early so I can be able to run. Getting into the heart of the defense and attacking them in the middle of the field and being that big target in the field where he needs me. It could be a lot of things that's attributed to that. We are clicking now and we're moving and we're getting things done out there on Sundays.” After the missed field goal, did you immediately feel like you guys were going to be able to go down and score and win the game on that drive? “Yeah, for sure. If you give (Drew Brees) a ball with the targets and the weapons he had and with the good offensive line that he has with that much time on the clock, I think we can go out there and be able to score on anybody as long as we take care of what we need to take care of offensively. That's how good he is and the two minute drive and that's how good we are collectively as a team when the game's on the line and we need those points. We know that we have a chance to come away with it. We have the most confidence than each other and the utmost confidence in those coaches. We're going to be in the best position to try to win the game in the end.” Now that you've probably gotten a chance to go back and watch that play where you were called for offensive pass interference, is that same situation, something that happens all the time, but isn’t called, does it just entirely depend on the officiating crew? “Yeah. I feel like some crews are more susceptible to call that more than others. I feel like some crews let you play a little bit more than others and some crews have the tendency of calling a certain type of penalties more than others. A lot of times we know that information going into the game. It's just something that I don't understand or how that ref saw it, but it was bad defending. When your receivers are just, I guess on that play, they're just better or they just go up and make a play, I don't see how you can just throw a flag and take away momentum and change the course of the game.” I would assume it's just one of those things where you just say, ‘all right, well they call it a pass interference, but there's nothing I could really use differently going forward.’ “You just have to continue to play your game. There's nothing you can really ever do about it. Even if you complain about it, there's still nothing you can do about it. You just have to continue playing your game. You have to continue doing you. You can't let that discourage you from going out there and being a playmaker.” Now that you've gotten a couple of games with Drew Brees under your belt since he returned from the thumb injury, what's the thing that stands out about him

Page 140: NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WEEKLY MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE€¦ · New Orleans hosts the 10-1 San Francisco 49ers on De-cember 8 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome Sunday’s effort in all three

that’s different on gamedays and in practice? “I do not really see much of a difference. You see him on a different level on gamedays and I think that's about it. I feel like he approaches the game or once he finds that groove or once he's locked in, especially like pregame and stuff, you just let him be himself and you know he’s ready. You can tell he's ready. You can always tell when Drew’s ready. That same focus and intensity that’s there in practice is there during gamedays. There’s really not much of a difference. But I think that that’s a good thing and it should be like that. You are a professional. You should be so intense during the week that when game time comes it is easy. Everything comes second nature out there. Everything's natural.” Saints LB Demario Davis Monday, November 25, 2019 Conference Call With New Orleans Media Obviously, with a quick change here, you guys don't get to celebrate much on this win, but how much does it benefit you on this short week of having just played (Atlanta) so recently and knowing a whole lot about their tendencies from the first time you played them? “It’s a huge benefit that we did play them two games ago. A lot of that’s still close to be able to recall the memory, but you still have to prepare as much as you can as if it is the first time you played them. It helps with a short week but we still have to put in a lot of preparation.” You guys were able to somewhat get rid of that sour taste by a couple of back-to- back wins, but how fresh is that game and that result and what happened in the game still on your mind? “They came out and played good football. They were able to hit us in the mouth. Anytime that happens you still look forward to the chance to get that back. It’s an important game because it’s the one that’s in front of us. I’m sure (the previous loss) will provide a little extra fuel to the fire, but in this league, you have to play every game maxed out if you want to be successful.” That last red zone stop for you guys yesterday where Marcus (Davenport) comes up with the late sack and you guys have to stay on the field after the challenge, how meaningful is that to a defense to be able to come through and still get a stop in a situation like that? “It's huge because you never know how it’s going to play into the game. You never know what can happen. We are thinking at that point that they’re still going to be able to get three and they missed the field goal and then we have to drive down and kick a field goal. You never know what can happen in a game. You never know how the game will play out. You mess around and let them get seven it’s a different game or if they got three it’s a different situation. It was a huge stop for the defense.”
