The New Orleans Saints dropped a shocking loss to the 3-8-1 Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday night and these players are to blame.

The New Orleans Saints drew the first start of Jalen Hurts career and from the looking of this game, he will have a long successful career. The black and gold dropped their win streak at nine with this loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

The New Orleans’ defense was nowhere to be found in the first half; in fact, their offense was nowhere to be found either. It was all Philadelphia in the first half taking the lead 17-0 into halftime on the back of two touchdowns and a field goal.

The second half was more Saints, but not enough to overcome the 3-8-1 Eagles. Taysom Hill came out throwing better with two touchdowns on the first two drives of the second half and Kamara looked to be mounting a comeback as well.

After a couple of turnovers, the Saints lost grips on their comeback.

Eventually, they fell 24-21 to a far weaker team. All the blame can not be placed on one player, but there are several who can be looked at as playing subpar and contributing to the Saints’ loss in a big way.
