The New Orleans Saints get a much needed victory heading into the bye with a big win against the Washington Football Team. Marshon Lattimore led the way for the Saints defense in a huge matchup against Terry McLaurin. Meanwhile Jameis Winston excited and impressed bouncing back from two early turnovers and punter Blake Gillikin keeps WFT's offense operating from deep within their own territory.
New Orleans came into this game tied for first in redzone defense only allowing TDs 33% of the time and held up to that ranking against Taylor Heinicke and the WFT offense. However, the Saints continue to be slow in the third quarter. Something the team will likely try to address with scripted plays and returning talent after the bye week.
Michael Thomas, Kwon Alexander, Wil Lutz, Erik McCoy, Tre'Quan Smith, and many others could turn this New Orleans Saints defense into an entirely new team in the weeks following the Week 6 bye. Carrying a 3-2 record into a bye week that was initially considered too early, now looks to be the best case scenario right on time.
