Saints interim head coach Darren Rizzi is already hilariously oversharing
The New Orleans Saints finally picked up their third win of the season, defeating the Atlanta Falcons 20-17 on Sunday. It’s New Orleans first win since Week 2, and the first win ever for interim head coach Darren Rizzi. Of course, vibes were high in New Orleans following the game.
They were a bit too high right after the game, because Rizzi picked up a stinger in the postgame celebration. However, he recovered, and was feeling great during his postgame press conference. When people are feeling good, they have a tendency to overshare, and that’s exactly what Rizzi did on Sunday.
Speaking with the media, the interim head coach admitted he thought today would be a bad day. The reason he felt that way is that his day started off bad once he arrived at the stadium. In a TMI moment, Rizzi revealed he clogged the toilet in the head coach’s locker room when he first got to the stadium, and thought to himself, today's going to be a crappy day.
Darren Rizzi shares embarrassing pregame story after first win as Saints coach
Everyone can relate to being in a great mood and sharing more than you should have. Fortunately for Rizzi and the Saints, it didn’t end up being a crappy day at all. New Orleans won a game for the first time since Week 2, and it came against the Atlanta Falcons, of all teams.
Now, New Orleans will try to use this game to build momentum. With eight weeks left in the season, seven games for the Saints, the team is holding out hope they can actually turn the season around. They’re aren’t out of any races yet, technically, but it’s going to take many more days like Sunday for tithe Saints to change their fate.
