NOLA Saints Loser

Saints Pass Rush

Where the heck was the pass rush on Sunday? The same group that had two sacks on Mac Jones last week couldn’t muster a single sack on Daniel Jones, instead allowing him to break free and tally 27 yards on the ground in the loss.

This was a really gross performance from this unit and they have to play better moving forward.

NOLA Saints Winners

Ty Montgomery

After losing Tony Jones Jr. to injury, Ty Montgomery stepped up in both facets of the game. He ended up rushing the ball for just seven yards but he had three catches for 42 yards, including some big receptions the offense needed to keep the chains moving.

Malcolm Jenkins

The defense didn’t play well but Jenkins had a nice day. He led the team in tackles with 12 and was one of the only defensive playmakers to really do anything positive.
