New Orleans Saints: 3 X-factors from Sunday’s win over San Francisco

With yet another win in the books, the New Orleans Saints are rolling, making that their sixth straight victory after a 1-2 start to the season.

The New Orleans Saints treated their 6,000 fans who socially distanced themselves inside the Mercedes Benz Super Dome on Sunday evening to a 27-13 victory, a win that was much needed but still bittersweet.

Injuries plagued the Saints during the team’s win on Sunday, but nothing seemed too serious or concerning.

Several players were asked to step up and rise to the occasion, and the three guys on this list certainly did just that. There were many more than just these three. Several players helped make this win happen after a rather rough start to the game.

Whether it was padding stats to add onto an already great season or if it was the player’s first really big game of the season, their contributions helped the Saints earn a big victory as they gear up to play the Atlanta Falcons next week.
