THE MATCHUP After wrapping up the regular season Sunday with a 42-10 win over the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Sta-dium., the New Orleans Saints (13-3) host the Minnesota Vikings in an NFC Wild Card Playoff matchup.

The game will mark the fourth time that the Saints and Lions will meet in the playoffs, which will be tied with Phila-delphia for the Black and Gold’s most common postseason opponent. The Vikings lead the regular season series 19-11 and the postseason series 2-1, but the Saints captured the last meeting between the clubs, a 30-20 win on Octo-ber 28, 2018 at U.S. Bank Stadium.

The Saints enter the postseason after numerous team, individual and NFL marks went by the wayside. New Orle-ans’ 13 wins and seven road victories both tied franchise records as they won 13 in back-to-back campaigns for the first time in capturing their third straight NFC South title.

New Orleans ended the regular season having the few-est turnovers (eight) in a single season in NFL history and tied for the fewest lost fumbles (two). QB Drew Brees be-came the NFL’s all-time touchdown pass leader in Week 15 and ended the regular season with 547. He finished the season completing 281-of-378 passes (74.3%) for 2,979

yards with 27 touchdowns, only four interceptions and a career-best 116.3 passer rating. WR Michael Thomas shattered the NFL’s single-season receiving record with 149 receptions for 1,725 yards and nine touchdowns. TE Jared Cook posted 43 receptions for 705 yards and nine touchdowns, leading league tights with 16.4 yards per reception. RB Alvin Kamara became only the second Saint to post 1,300 total yards from scrimmage in three straight seasons. Brees, Thomas and LT Terron Armstead were selected to the Pro Bowl.

The defense has made incremental improvements for the past three seasons, posting 50 sacks for the first time since 2001, ranked third in the league with 51, led by Pro Bowl DE Cameron Jordan who posted 15.5 takedowns. LB Demario Davis led the team with 111 tackles and add-ed four sacks in spearheading a unit ranked in the top-five in rushing defense for the first time since 1986-87.

Special teams were led by Pro Bowl selections in K Wil Lutz, who set a club-record with 32 field goals and a ca-reer-high 144 points and rookie WR/RS Deonte Harris, who averaged 26.8 yards per kickoff return and 9.4 yards per punt return with one touchdown. P Thomas Morstead ranked among league leaders with a 43.1 net punting av-erage and second-year DB J.T. Gray led the coverage units with 16 special teams tackles and one blocked punt.

THE COACHES

Saints Head Coach Sean Payton has posted a 139-83 overall record (.626), including an 8-6 postseason mark after the franchise had won only one playoff game prior to his arrival in 2006. Payton holds both the club’s top victory total and winning percentage. Payton ranked 26th all-time in NFL record books in victories, fifth among active head coaches. He continues to represent the Saints as the mod-el of stability not only within the NFC South, as he is the longest tenured head coach within the division, but also among the most accomplished within the NFL. Only the Patriots’ Bill Belichick (2000) has been with the his team longer than Payton’s 14 seasons in New Orleans. Payton is also one of just seven active NFL head coaches to lead a team to a Super Bowl victory. The others are Belichick, the Seahawks’ Pete Carroll, the Raiders’ Jon Gruden (Tampa Bay in 2002), the Ravens’ John Harbaugh, the Eagles’ Doug Pederson and the Steelers’ Mike Tomlin. The 2018 Saints edition posted a 13-3 regular season record, se-cured the NFC’s number one seed for the postseason and advanced to the NFC Championship for the third time. A franchise-record five players were selected to the AP All-Pro team and a club-best eight members of the team were named to the Pro Bowl. New Orleans’ ten-game winning streak was the second-longest in club history and the long-est run of consecutive victories in the NFL in 2018. The streak only sits behind in club record books, New Orleans’ 13-0 start under Payton in 2009, the season when they captured Super Bowl XLIV. New Orleans ranked third in the NFL in points per game, eighth in total offense and sixth in rushing offense. A stingy run defense ranked sec-ond in both opponent rushing yards per game and oppo-nent rushing yards per play. The 2019 campaign has re-sulted in a 13-3 record, capturing their third consecutive NFC South title. Payton earned a bachelor’s degree in communications at Eastern Illinois, where as a quarterback he had 10,665 passing yards, at the time the third-highest total in NCAA Division I-AA history. Payton was inducted into the Eastern Illinois Hall of Fame in September of 2000 and had his jersey retired in a ceremony in September of 2010. He received an honorary doctorate from his alma mater in 2013. Payton was born December 29, 1963 in San Mateo, Calif., and was raised in Naperville, Ill., Payton has a daughter, Meghan and a son, Connor.

Vikings Head Coach Mike Zimmer is in his sixth season at the helm, having put together a 58-40-1 record (regular season and postseason) since 2014. After managing a 7-9 mark in 2014, his first season, Zimmer and QB Teddy Bridgewater used their sophomore seasons to roar to an 11-5 record and the Vikings’ first NFC North title since 2009, when they advanced to the NFC Championship Game but fell to the Saints. The 2015 campaign ended with

a nailbiter, as the club fell to the Seattle Seahawks, 10-9, in the Wild Card round. Following an 8-8 campaign in 2016, in 2017, Zimmer led the Vikings to a 13-3 record, his second NFC North title as head coach and a first-round playoff bye. The Vikings had an 8-7-1 record in 2018 under Zim-mer as they had back-to-back winning records for the first time since the 2008-09 campaigns and returned to the playoffs with a 10-6 mark in 2019. Prior to his arrival in Min-nesota, Zimmer served as the defensive coordinator for the Cincinnati Bengals from 2008 to 2013. During that span, Bengals defenses ranked in the top-15 in yards allowed each year and on two occasions ranked in the top-five. He served briefly as defensive coordinator for Atlanta in 2007 after having held that position with the Cowboys from 2000 to 2006. He originally entered the NFL in 1994 as a defen-sive assistant with the Cowboys, was promoted to defen-sive backs coach in 1995, and was to defensive coordina-tor in 2000. Zimmer was the defensive coordinator for Washington State between 1989 and 1993. During his final season with the Cougars, the team ranked eighth nation-wide in total defense and second in rushing defense, allow-ing only 298.8 total yards per game and only 86.3 rushing yards per game. Before joining Washington State, Zimmer was the defensive coordinator for Weber State from 1983 to 1988, prior to which he was an assistant coach there for two seasons. Zimmer began his coaching career in 1979 at the University of Missouri as an assistant coach after grad-uating from Illinois State.

SERIES HISTORY

Minnesota leads the regular season series, having won 19 of 30 contests since the teams first met on October 13, 1968 at Tulane Stadium and three of four postseason meetings; the Black and Gold won that first matchup 20-17. The Saints would not beat the Vikings again until Sept. 3, 1978, losing six straight contests in the interim. Though the Vikings have a firm grasp of the overall series record, the Saints have fared much better since the 2006 arrival of Sean Payton as head coach and the free agent signing of QB Drew Brees. The teams have met on eight occasions since then, five times in the regular season and twice in the postseason and New Orleans has captured five. The Saints and Vikings have met four times in the playoffs, including the Black and Gold’s first ever postseason game in 1987, which the Vikings seized at the Superdome, 44-10. The third playoff meeting proved to be the charm, how-ever, as the two clubs met at the Superdome on Jan. 24, 2010 for the NFC Championship. Brees completed 17-of-31 passes for 197 yards and three touchdown throws with RB Pierre Thomas scoring two touchdowns and RB Reggie Bush and WR Devery Henderson adding scoring grabs. A late interception of Minnesota QB Brett Favre by CB Tracy Porter sent the game to overtime, and the Saints won, 31-28, off a 40-yard field goal from K Garrett Hartley, sending the Saints to Super Bowl XLIV.

The Saints struck back quickly as four plays later, Brees connected on a 14-yard touchdown pass to Rookie running back Alvin Kamara to put the Saints up 21-20 with 3:01 remaining.

Minnesota responded with a nine-play, 40-yard driving ending when Forbath booted a 53-yard field goal to take back the lead at 23-21 with 1:29 left. Brees hurried the troops and engineered an 11-play, 50-yard drive that in-cluded a fourth and ten 13-yard completion to wide receiver Willie Snead IV at the Vikings 33-yard line and ended with a 43-yard field goal by kicker Wil Lutz to give the Saints the lead back with 25 seconds left.

LAST REGULAR SEASON MEETING

Saints 30, Minnesota Vikings 20; October 28, 2018 @ U.S. Bank Stadium – The Saints improved to 6-1 after defeating the Vikings on Sunday Night Football.

New Orleans jumped out to a 7-0 first quarter lead after QB Drew Brees found RB Alvin Kamara on a three-yard pass, which was then matched by Minnesota QB Kirk Cousins completing a one-yard TD to WR Stefon Diggs.

Early in the second quarter, the Vikings took a 13-7 lead on a one-yard run by RB Latavius Murray followed up by a failed extra point. K Will Lutz then connected on a 52-yard field goal to put New Orleans within three. With 1:11 left in the first half, LB Alex Anzalone caused a fumble by the Vikings’ Adam Thielen that was returned by CB Marshon Lattimore 53 yards. Kamara punched in a one-yard TD two plays later that gave the Saints a 17-13 halftime lead.

Lutz made his second field goal early in the third to bring the score to 20-13 and on Minnesota’s next possession the lead was extended to 27-13 on a 45-yard interception re-turn for a touchdown by CB P.J. Williams, which would earn him NFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for the first time in his career.

In the fourth quarter, Lutz drilled a second 42-yard kick. Minnesota made a TD drive late while the Saints defense had switched to a prevent mode to set up a final score of 30-20.

QB Drew Brees threw a first half interception, which was his first pick after he went 264 regular season pass at-tempts over a nine-game period without one.

WEEK 1: Saints 30, Houston Texans 28; September 9, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – After a rough start and trailing by as much as 11 points at halftime, the Saints pulled off a thrilling 30-28 comeback victory, complete with six sacks, a safety Marcus Williams pick, a balanced of-fense and a 58-yard field goal as time expired.

In the Monday night opener, QB Drew Brees finished with 370 passing yards, two touchdowns and a 105.8 rating. WR Michael Thomas topped the receiving corps with 123 yards on ten receptions.

The rough start began with an unproductive first offensive drive for New Orleans followed by a series where Texans OLB Whitney Mercilus picked off a Brees pass intended for Murray at the Houston four-year line. Houston QB Deshaun

Watson then engineered a seven-play, 94-yard drive that ended with a 21-yard rushing touchdown by the third-year signal-caller. New Orleans’ offense wouldn’t remain score-less for long though as K Wil Lutz drilled a 32-yard field goal. The Texans then extended the lead to 14-3 on a two-yard touchdown from Watson to WR Deandre Hopkins.

The Saints got the ball first in the third quarter and scored their first touchdown of 2019 and moved within four on Murray’s scoring run. But the Texans answered with a 16-yard touchdown connection from Watson to Hopkins. How-ever on New Orleans’ next possession, the Saints an-swered back with a seven-yard touchdown pass from Brees to QB Taysom Hill, followed up by Williams’ pick.

On the first play of the fourth quarter, New Orleans took their first lead of the night when Brees connected with wide receiver Tre’Quan Smith on a 14-yard touchdown. Follow-ing another Lutz field goal, the Texans answered when Watson found Texans wide receiver Kenny Stills for a 37-yard touchdown connection with 37 seconds left in the con-test.

Brees then completed three quick passes and spiked the ball twice. After New Orleans used their final timeout, Lutz, who missed a 56-yard field goal near the end of the first half, connected on a career-long 58-yard field goal as time expired to give the Saints the win. For his last-second hero-ics, saints head coach Sean Payton awarded Lutz with a game ball.

Lutz was perfect on all three point after tries, and drove all five of his kickoffs out for touchbacks. It was New Orleans’ first season opening victory since 2013.

WEEK 2: Los Angeles Rams 27, Saints 9; September 15, 2019 @ Los Angeles Veterans Memorial Coliseum – New Orleans struggled to put together consistent drives on offense and despite a gritty defensive effort, struggled on offense when both Drew Brees and Teddy Bridgewater quarterbacked the team after Brees was sidelined with a right thumb injury that required surgery and sideline him for five subsequent contests. After struggling with penalties, the Saints offense was unable to overcome that on third down, finishing just 4-of-13 on their third down attempts.

Following an interception by Rams safety John Johnson, Los Angeles capped their first drive, a seven-play 3:43 mi-nute drive with a 24-yard field goal by kicker Greg Zuerlein to get on the scoreboard first, a lead they would never re-linquish. . After a second unsuccessful series by the Saints offense, Brees was forced to leave the game with a thumb injury. However, the Rams offense was unable to score on their next three offensive drives, as a sack by defensive end Cameron Jordan ended one and a fumble recovery by the All-Pro end the other.

New Orleans then forced a quick three-and-out, Harris returned the punt to the Saints 49-yard line and Lutz hit a 42-yard field goal to give New Orleans the edge. A potential score was averted when on a completion from Cowboys QB Dak Prescott to TE Jason Witten, LB A.J. Klein punched the ball out and it was recovered by S Vonn Bell. Towards the end of the quarter, Bell forced a fumble by Cowboys RB Ezekiel Elliott and recovered it, setting the stage for a 19-yard field goal by Lutz and a 9-3 Saints halftime lead.

Week 5: Saints 31, Buccaneers 24; October 6, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – New Orleans put together one of their more complete games as they recorded a vic-tory over their NFC South divisional rivals in the start of their 2019 division slate.

After gaining three first downs on their first possession, New Orleans was forced to punt. However, on Tampa Bay’s next offensive possession, the Saints defense forced a three-and-out and a punt. Starting the ensuing drive on their own 36-yard line, QB Teddy Bridgewater would lead a nine-play, 53-yard drive that culminated in a Wil Lutz 29-yard field goal to give the Saints the early lead. Two pos-session later, after Buccaneers CB Sean Murphy-Bunting picked off Bridgewater after a ball bounced off of WR Ted Ginn Jr., QB Jameis Winston and the Tampa Bay of-fense took advantage of great field position as he found find WR Chris Godwin for a 26-yard TD to take a 7-3 lead.

On the next Saints offensive possession, they regained the lead, with Bridgewater connecting with WR Michael Thomas on a 14-yard touchdown. Tampa Bay K Matt Gay connected on a 42-yard field goal to tie the score in the contest again. But the Saints took the lead back with 37 seconds left in the first half when Bridgewater and TE Jar-ed Cook connected for a nine-yard touchdown.

The Saints then got the ball coming out of the second half and Bridgewater connected on a 42-yard completion to Thomas and two plays later found Ginn for a 33-yard TD. The Buccaneers struck back by going on a 17-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a two-yard TD run by RB Peyton Barber to put the Buccaneers back within seven. Near the end of the third quarter, the Saints were pinned back at

their nine on third-and-ten and Bridgewater found Thomas for a 20-yard completion to keep a crucial drive alive.

The drive stayed alive in the fourth quarter, eventually go-ing for 13-plays and 91 yards as Bridgewater found Thom-as for a nine-yard TD, as the signal-caller tied his career-high for scoring throws. The clubs traded three and outs, but the Saints pass rush became active with three sacks on a single Tampa Bay offensive series to force a punt. The Buccaneers offense struck again with Godwin hauling in a 26-yard TD from Winston to make it a one-score game. But the onside kick attempt went out of bounds to give New Orleans the ball back for a victory formation.

WEEK 6: Saints 13, Jaguars 6; October 13, 2019 @ TI-AA Bank Field – The Saints won their fourth consecutive game and improved their record on the season to 5-1, de-spite missing QB Drew Brees for throughout the winning streak defeating Jacksonville in a contest dominated by both defense and special teams, with timely offensive plays mixed in. It marked the first time New Orleans didn’t sur-render a touchdown in a contest since a 20-0 shutout of the Miami Dolphins in London on October 1, 2017.

The Jaguars won the toss and deferred to receive. The clubs traded punts for their first two possessions. New Or-leans jumped out to a 3-0 lead compliments of a 47-yard field goal by K Wil Lutz. New Orleans took a bend but don’t break approach on a Jacksonville drive midway through the second quarter as Jaguars QB Gavin Minshew completed 12– and 22-yard passes to WR D.J. Chark, followed by some nifty runs by RB Leonard Fournette. But the Saints kept the Jaguars out of the end zone at their four-yard line and forced a 22-yard Josh Lambo field goal to close out the only first half scoring.

New Orleans recorded the game’s only takeaway on the first drive of the second half when CB Marshon Lattimore picked off a pass intended for Chark. The Saints took the lead back on the next drive when Lutz drilled a 21-yard field goal. Midway through the third quarter, Minshew com-pleted a pass for a 23-yard gain to WR Dede Westbrook, that set up a 32-yard Lambo field goal.

Between the third and fourth quarters, New Orleans QB Teddy Bridgewater drove the offense 75 yards in 11 plays on a drive that lasted 6:22 and he eventually con-nected with TE Jared Cook on a four-yard touchdown pass to put the Saints ahead for good. New Orleans then de-fended a Jacksonville drive on downs at the Saints 40 and despite a quick three and out, then forced a Jaguars punt. The Saints then wouldn’t give the ball back, holding it for the final 6:09 of the contest, converting three first downs.

That was the start of 27 unanswered points by New Orleans.

WEEK 8: Saints 31, Arizona Cardinals 9; October 27, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints im-proved to 7-1, powered by an offensive attack that tied a season-high with 510 total net yards, welcomed back by the return of QB Drew Brees and a defense that did not allow a touchdown for the second time this season and the second time in three weeks.

The Cardinals opened the scoring with 5:41 left in the first quarter when K Zane Gonzalez drilled a 31-yard field goal. After Brees connected with QB Taysom Hill on a 22-

yard completion to set up a 26-yard field goal by kicker Wil Lutz, the Saints would not trail again in the contest where he returned from right thumb surgery that sidelined him for five games.

Midway through the second quarter, running back Lata-vius Murray, who led the saints in rushing with 102 rushing yards, 157 total yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns, scored on an eight-yard rush. On Arizona’s next possession, Gonzalez booted a 31-yard field goal to cut New Orleans’ lead to 10-6.

Midway through the third quarter, after the Saints stopped the Cardinals on a fourth and one attempt at their 30 on a stop for no gain by defensive tackle David Onye-mata, Brees led New Orleans on five-play, 30-yard drive, ending with a 15-yard touchdown pass to Murray, the run-ning back’s first career scoring grab. Brees finished com-pleting 34-of-43 passes for 373 yards with three TDs and one interception with a 116.4 rating.

With the Cardinals in rally mode, trailing 17-9 at the end of the third quarter after a 50-yard field by Gonzalez, Hill caught a five-yard touchdown from Brees at the start of the fourth quarter. On the next play from scrimmage, a Saints team sack, set the Cardinals back to second and 20 at their 15-yard line and would force a punt. plays later, Brees connected for a touchdown for the final time on the after-noon, when he hit wide receiver Michael Thomas for a nine-yard touchdown to seal the win for New Orleans heading into their Week 10 bye.

LB Demario Davis led the standout de-fensive effort with a teams-high eight tackles (seven solo), while DE Cameron Jordan recorded two a sack to reach eight takedowns for the midpoint of the season.

WEEK 10: Atlanta Falcons 26, Saints 9; November 10, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – New Orleans’ re-turn to action following a Week Nine bye would be a forget-table one, as they would suffer their first loss after a bye since the 2015 season at the hands of their divisional ri-vals. Despite QBs Drew Brees and Taysom Hill putting up 304 passing yards through the air, S Marcus Williams inter-cepting Falcons QB Matt Ryan and WR/RS Deonte Harris and K Wil Lutz excelling on special teams, 12 penalties and allowing Brees to get sacked six times set New Orleans back.

However Atlanta scored a touchdown on a 17-play, 75-yard drive that stretched into the second quarter, ending with an eight-yard touchdown pass from Ryan to tight end Austin Hooper.

New Orleans was on the verge of getting off the field for a field goal attempt, but three penalties in Saints territory resulted in first downs. The clubs traded punts and then field goals, Atlanta went into halftime with a 13-6 edge.

After trading punts to open the second half, Harris re-turned a punt 19 yards to the Atlanta 38, but a sack of Brees in the red zone forced a third Lutz field goal. Atlanta then chewed 6:12 off the clock on a 13-play, 75-yard drive that ended with a ten-yard touchdown pass from Ryan to running back Brian Poole.

After New Orleans was forced to punt, Atlanta kicked a field goal, followed by another loss on downs, but the Saints got New life trailing 23-9 midway through the fourth quarter when Williams picked off Ryan. But the Saints failed to execute and had their six-game winning streak snapped.

Wide receiver Michael Thomas enjoyed another stand-out day in what has become another record-setting fourth campaign, grabbing a season-high 13 passes for 152 yards. He became the fastest player to 400 receptions in his 56th career game and no player has matched his 401 catches through their first four seasons. Leading the NFL in both receiving and receiving yardage with 86 grabs for 1,027 yards with four touchdowns. He also moved into fourth place in club record books with his 14th career 100-yard receiving game

Williams’ pick was his team-leading third of the season and he is currently tied for fifth in the league in in-terceptions. linebacker Demario Davis led a Saints de-fense ranked fifth in the NFL with a game-high 11 tackles and their only sack.

WEEK 11: Saints 34, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 17; No-vember 17, 2019 @ Raymond James Stadium – Vonn Bell, Demario Davis, Marcus Williams and P.J. Williams each recorded interceptions, one of which Marcus Williams brought back 55 yards for a touchdown and an efficient offense and special teams helped New Orleans rebound from a Week 10 loss to get their first season sweep of Tampa Bay since 2014.

Running back Alvin Kamara posted 154 all purpose yards including 13 carries for 75 yards (5.8 avg.), ten re-ceptions for 47 yards and a 27-yard punt return to set up a touchdown. Quarterback Drew Brees completed 28-of-35

• Linebacker Kiko Alonso led the team with six solo tackles and deflected the pass intercepted by Bell at the end of the first half.

WEEK 12: Saints 34, Carolina Panthers 31; November 24, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – QB Drew Brees, WR Michael Thomas and K Wil Lutz celebrated a decisive string of late-game successes that put New Or-leans on the cusp of a third straight NFC South crown. The Panthers could only lament the first-and-goal they squandered just moments earlier in a third straight loss. Lutz kicked a 33-yard field goal as time expired, and New Orleans beat Carolina 34-31 on Sunday to take a four-game lead in the NFC South with five games left. “It’s exciting. It’s butterflies. But also, it’s confidence,” said Brees, who led the Saints from their own 14-yard line with 1:51 left to the Carolina 15 with three seconds remain-ing. “It’s unity. You feel like everybody knows the challenge ahead. Everybody knows what we need to do in order to accomplish whatever it is we need to accomplish to go win the game. Everybody just kind of locks in and goes.” Lutz’s second game-winning kick this season capped a contest filled with late momentum shifts and critical errors — none bigger than Carolina K Joey Slye’s missed field goal from 28 yards with 2 minutes left. Carolina trailed from early in the first quarter until 9:23 re-mained in the fourth quarter, when D.J. Moore reached up with his right hand to corral a fourth-and-goal pass in the back of the end zone to tie it at 31.

Soon after, Panthers S Eric Reid stuffed RB Alvin Kamara on fourth-and-1 from the New Orleans 45. That set up a dramatic sequence in which Carolina head coach Ron Ri-vera successfully challenged officials’ decision not to call pass interference on a third-down incomplete pass, giving Carolina a first down on the 3 with 2:21 left.

Panthers RB Christian McCaffrey’s run was stuffed, QB Kyle Allen threw incomplete on second down and Allen was sacked on third down by Saints DE Marcus Davenport, setting the stage for the end of a difficult day for Slye, who’d also missed two extra-point kicks. “I feel terrible,” Slye said. “We needed this win.” Brees finished 30 of 39 for 311 yards and three touch-downs, but also was intercepted by Panthers S Tre Boston, a play that helped Carolina come back in the fourth quarter. Thomas had 10 catches for 101 yards and a touchdown for New Orleans (9-2), including receptions of 14 and 24 yards on the game-winning drive as he posted 100 receptions for the third consecutive season and became the first Saint with five straight contests of at least 100 receiving yards. “We work that situation week in and week out and it al-ways comes up to benefit us,” Thomas said of the Saints’ hurry-up offense. “I’m just grateful for not cheating the preparation.” Allen passed for 256 yards and three touchdowns for Carolina (5-6). “It is incredibly frustrating,” Allen said. “Some weeks it’s been offense, some weeks it’s been defense. We’ve just got to put it together and play a complete game.” McCaffrey had 133 yards and two touchdowns from scrim-mage on a balance of runs and receptions. Moore had six catches for 126 yards and two TDs, the first a 51-yarder. Saints TE Jared Cook had six catches for 99 yards, in-cluding a 20-yard touchdown, and RB Latavius Murray scored the game’s first touchdown on a 26-yard run. WEEK 13: Saints 26, Atlanta Falcons 18; November 28, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Stadium – The Saints have clinched the NFC South division title with a 26-16 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Thanksgiving night This marks the third consecutive season that the Saints have won the NFC South, the best such streak in franchise history. The Saints' victory over the Falcons avenged a humbling setback against Atlanta in Week 10, a 26-9 loss at home that ended a six-game winning streak for New Orle-ans. The Falcons made the Saints sweat it out late, making a frenzied late-game comeback attempt. The Falcons were successful on consecutive onside kicks. The first success-ful onside kick came after a touchdown trimmed the Saints' lead to 26-15, and led to a Younghoe Koo's field goal that made it a one-possession game. However, the Fal-cons couldn't capitalize on the second successful onside kick. The drive was thwarted at midfield as Cameron Jor-dan sacked Matt Ryan on fourth down to end the comeback threat. “We had to drop back and pass at the end of the game,” Ryan said. “When you do that and there’s really no threat of run, it’s tough sledding, particularly when you’re going against a good defense, a very good defensive line and one of the better pass rushers in the game in Cam Jordan.” Taysom Hill displayed his versatility. He blocked a punt. That led to the Saints' first touchdown, which was scored by Hill. He later ran for a touchdown on a third-and-1 play late in the second quarter.

“When you have guys like Mike Thomas, Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook, the list goes on, it kind of creates opportunities for little old me because it creates so much attention that’s put on those guys,” Hill said. WEEK 14: San Francisco 49ers 48, Saints 46; Decem-ber 8, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints took the 49ers, who now have the NFC’s best record (11-2), to the limit before dropping a 48-46 heartbreaker at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. 49ers K Robbie Gould;s 30-yard field goal as time ex-pired was the difference. After New Orleans jumped out to a 27-14 second quarter lead in scoring touchdowns on their first four possessions, San Francisco took their first lead into halftime at 28-27. After New Orleans regained the lead for a short time in the second half, the 49ers kept the edge for the majority of the third and fourth quarters until QB Drew Brees engineered a seven-play, 76-yard drive with an 18-yard touchdown pass to WR Tre’Quan Smith with 53 seconds left. But San Francisco rallied as 49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo led a seven-play, 63-yard drive to set up the win keyed by a 39-yard completion to TE George Kittle on fourth-and-two to set up the game-winner. WEEK 15: Saints 34, Colts 7; December 16, 2019 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – Drew Brees trotted along the sideline holding his helmet and a Hall of Fame-bound ball in his left hand while using his right hand to wave and blow kisses to an adoring Mercedes-Benz Superdome crowd. Another milestone, another memory, for an undersized and once underestimated player who has broken just about every significant record a quarterback can break — and doesn’t look anywhere near done at age 40. Brees became the NFL’s all-time leader in touchdown passes, throwing for four scores to lead the Saints to a 34-7 victory over the Colts. “It was special, everything about the night,” Brees said. “It just kind of makes your whole life and career flash before your eyes, because I never thought I’d have a chance to be part of something like this.” The scoring strike that broke Peyton Manning’s record of 539 career touchdown passes came in the third quarter, when Brees hit TE Josh Hill for a 5-yard score. Brees’ next pass in the game was the 541st scoring toss of his career, a 28-yarder to reserve QB and utility player Taysom Hill that put the Saints up 34-0. “He’s done that to a lot of defenses,” Colts coach Frank Reich said. “When he gets like that. I don’t know that any-body can stop him.” Now in his 19th season, the 6-foot Brees — a 2001 second-round draft choice — came into the game already holding NFL records for completions with 6,792 and yards passing with 72,577. He built on those numbers while also setting a record for completion percentage in a game. He completed 29 of 30 passes — 96.7% — for 307 yards before being relieved by Teddy Bridgewater in the fourth quarter. That broke the mark Philip Rivers had held since completing 28 of 29 (96.6%) against Arizona last season. “He had a hot hand, obviously,” Saints coach Sean Payton said. “Guys were making plays, but that’s awfully difficult to do.” CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE-WEEK 15 VS. INDIANAPOLIS The victory kept the Saints (11-3), who’d already won the NFC South, in the running with Seattle (11-3), San Francis-co (11-3) and Green Bay (11-3) for one of the top two seeds in the NFC playoffs. “There’s a lot at stake right now relative to these games when you look at the top of the NFC,” Payton said. “It’s about winning and winning and winning and trying to give yourself the best chance in the postseason.” The Colts (6-8) were eliminated from playoff contention after losing their fourth straight and sixth out of seven. They were also left struggled to explain their lack of com-petitiveness in a game they needed to win. “I wish I knew all the answers,” Colts LB Darius Leonard said. “I hate losing more than I love winning.” Jacoby Brissett finished 18 of 34 for 165 yards against a Saints defense looking for redemption after allowing 48 points in a loss to the 49ers a week earlier. Meanwhile, Colts defenders had no answer for Saints WR Michael Thomas, who caught 12 passes for 128 yards, including a 15-yard touchdown. Thomas’ eighth game this season with at least 10 catches give him 133 for the sea-son, which is also the fourth-highest single-season total in NFL history. Tre’Quan Smith caught a 21-yard touchdown pass for New Orleans. Jordan Wilkins scored the Colts’ lone TD on a 1-yard run in the fourth quarter.

FLUID RECORD While Brees holds the career touchdown pass record for now, the New England Patriots’ Tom Brady is only three behind at 538. “It’s a fluid record,” Payton said. “There’s still another quar-terback in New England, so that will go back and forth as long as those two are playing.” The next-closest active player is Rivers with 395. Brees wasn’t about to underestimate Brady’s ability to keep pace. “He’s such a stud. He’s got a lot of rings and records,” Brees said of Brady. “He’s awesome.”

HAILING HILL Brees said the ball with which he threw his record-breaking TD would go to the Pro Football Hall of Fame and also sounded particularly pleased by who caught it. “I love the fact it was Josh Hill,” Brees said, noting that Hill made the team as an undrafted rookie in 2013 and has been reliable both on offense and special teams ever since. “The epitome of a great teammate, kind of an unsung he-ro,” Brees said. “He’s done an unbelievable job. I have so much trust and confidence in him.”

WEEK 16: New Orlans Saints 34, Tennessee Titans 28; December 22, 2019 @ Nissan Stadium – The Saints, be-hind a balanced offense, a record-breaking performance from WR Michael Thomas and a rebound by a defense that faced early schedules knocked down the Titans, 38-28.

With the win, the Saints reached 12 wins for the second consecutive season for the first time in franchise history and gained ground in the race for a first-round postseason bye.

After falling behind 14-0 in the first quarter and experi-encing some early struggles on offense, New Orleans scored touchdowns on four consecutive full possessions in the second and third quarters. QB Drew Brees completed 27-of-38 passes for 279 yards, with 11 of his throws and a 20-yard completion from QB Taysom Hill going into the hands of Thomas, who set the NFL single-season record for receptions, standing at 145 by the end of the contest. His catches went for 136 yards and one touchdown as his 1,688 yards are the tenth-highest total in league record books. The New Orleans running game was led by Alvin Kamara, who carried 11 times for 80 yards (7.3 avg.).

A hard-hitting New Orleans defense finished with five sacks, including a career-high two by LB A.J. Klein. When the Titans got the ball back from a failed fake punt attempt late in the fourth quarter at their 38-yard line, rookie S C.J. Gardner-Johnson tackled Tennessee WR Kalif Ray-mond, forced the football out and returned it 37 yards to the Titans 25-yard line in what would lead to New Orle-ans’ final touchdown to seal the win.

• LB Demario Davis led the team with a game-high 11 tack-les and a sack as he reached the century mark in stops for the second consecutive season.

• CB P.J. Williams moved to safety after Marcus Williams was forced to depart with a groin injury midway through the contest, playing the position for the first time since high school.

• WR/RS Deonte Harris, fresh off being the first Saints rookie to be signed as an undrafted free agent to be select-ed to the Pro Bowl, sparked the New Orleans return game, bringing back four kickoffs for 150 yards (37.5 avg.), includ-ing a 47-yard runback and also brought back four punts for 21 yards for 171 all-purpose yards.

WEEK 17: New Orleans Saints 42, Carolina Panthers 10; December 29, 2019 @ Bank of America Stadium – While NFL records fell and were extended as the Saints closed out the regular season in style, the most importing thing was that the team exited the contest healthy and they walked out with a dominating win for their fourth 13-game win season and second consecutive.

New Orleans ran up at least 34 points in four consecutive contests for the first time in franchise history as their 35-3 halftime lead was their biggest edge after the first two quar-ters of a contest in franchise history, jumping out to a 35-0 lead.

PAYTON’S PLACE AMONG HEAD COACHES

Sean Payton has had an impressive run as head coach of the Saints since being hired in 2006.

After the team had captured only two division titles prior to 2006, the club has six under Payton, including three straight NFC South titles from 2017-19, the first time the club won their division in consecutive seasons. The fran-chise has had 14 winning seasons overall in its 53-season history, eight happening under Payton’s watch including the 2019 13-3 mark. Payton has the highest winning per-centage (.626) and most wins (139) among the 16 Saints head coaches, also ranked 26th all-time in NFL record books, fifth among active head coaches.

Payton’s the only coach in Saints history with double-digit win totals in eight seasons, including the 2019 13-3 mark.

Ahead is a synopsis of several returning players and new-comers through the draft, free agency and trade to the 2019 Saints offensive line:

Left Tackle Terron Armstead - The club’s first third round draft choice in 2013 out of Arkansas-Pine Bluff, Armstead impressed scouts by running the fastest 40-yard dash time (4.71) by an offensive lineman in the history of the National Football League Scouting Combine. He has opened 71 regular season games for New Orleans and six postseason contests and has been selected to the Pro Bowl the past two seasons, as well as being selected as the club’s 2019 Man of the Year and the team nominee for the NFL’s Art Rooney Sportsmanship Award..

Center/Guard Nick Easton - Originally signed as an un-drafted free agent by the Baltimore Ravens out of Harvard, Easton developed into a starting swing guard/center by his second season and opened 17 contests for Minnesota. The North Carolina native signed with New Orleans to provide interior depth and started the five consecutive contests at left guard in place of an injured Andrus Peat, the final four contests where the Saints surrendered only three quarter-back takedowns.

Tackle/Guard Andrus Peat - A first round selection (13th overall) in the 2015 NFL Draft out of Stanford, Peat was considered one of the top college offensive linemen in 2014. In his first five seasons, Peat’s played in 62 games with 57 starts, opening a contest at every position except center. In 2018, he opened 12 regular season contests at left guard and one at left tackle and both postseason games at left guard as he was named to the Pro Bowl for the first time. He’s opened ten contests at left guard in 2019, returning to action in Week 17 after missing five con-tests.

Right Tackle Ryan Ramczyk - The Black and Gold used their second first round selection in the 2017 NFL Draft to snag Ramczyk out of Wisconsin, viewed by many as one of the best linemen in the entire draft. After opening all 16 games and both postseason contests in 2017 and being selected as a PFWA All-Rookie, he was an Associated Press All-Pro selection at right tackle in 2018, not missing an offensive snap in both postseason contests and all 15 regular games at the right tackle position that he played in where he is now a cornerstone. Ramczyk opened all 16 regular season games in 2019 to serve as a dominating bookend to Armstead.

Center Erik McCoy - New Orleans traded up in the sec-ond round of the 2019 NFL Draft to select this standout from Texas A&M, who was a three-year starter, anchoring the middle of the Aggies offensive line. In 2018, he was a team captain who paved the way for the SEC’s leading rusher and was the first Saint in franchise history to start at center in Week One, as he has able replaced the retired Max Unger, opening all 16 regular season contests.

Right Guard Larry Warford - Originally selected by De-troit in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft (65th overall) out of Kentucky, this seventh-year blocker brought size, strength and foot quickness to the Saints’ line in 2017, as he started all 14 regular season games he played in and both postseason contests at right guard. New Orleans’ rush offense responded to his addition, as the ground game finished fifth in the NFL as he was named to the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career. In 2018, Warford opened the first 15 games of the season and both postsea-son contests for the NFL’s sixth ranked rushing offense and third-ranked scoring club, as he was named to the Pro Bowl for the second consecutive season. Warford has opened 15 contests this season.

Center/Guard Will Clapp - A technically proficient player, who through the combination of size, strength and intelligence, was a three-year starter on the LSU offensive line, starting all 36 games that he appeared in (13 at cen-ter, 12 at left guard, 11 at right guard), earning first-team All-SEC honors at guard and center. Blocking for 1,000-yard rushers in each of his three college seasons, the for-mer Brother Martin standout settled in at center in 2017, where he was a first-team All-SEC selection and a Rim-ington Trophy finalist. Clapp made his first career start at left guard in the 2018 regular season finale. After his first full offseason in the club’s offseason strength and condi-tioning program, Clapp will provide depth on the interior of the Saints line and has also served as a jumbo tight end, seeing significant action as the club’s sixth offensive line-man in each contest as well as at left and right guard.

Tackle/Guard Patrick Omameh - Originally signed by San Francisco as an undrafted free agent in 2013, this for-mer Michigan standout has played in 79 games with 57 starts in the regular season and three playoff starts at both tackle and guard for five different teams, possessing the flexibility to play either inside or outside. Omameh played at left tackle in three quarters of the Oct. 24 win over Caro-lina following an ankle injury to Armstead and then opened the Thanksgiving night victory at Atlanta, where the Black and Gold did not give up a takedown.

DEFENSIVE DRAFTS

Over the last five NFL Drafts from 2015-19, New Orleans has shown a commitment to improving the defense, spending 17-of-28 picks on that side of the ball. With nine picks in the 2015 NFL Draft, the Saints picked six defen-sive players, the most taken since New Orleans chose nine defensive players in a 12-round selection meeting in 1990. Below is an overview of the players selected by New Orleans from 2015-19 on the 53-man roster:

Linebacker Stephone Anthony, Clemson (D1-15) - Se-lected in the first round (31st overall) of the 2015 NFL Draft out of Clemson, Anthony was a consensus All-Rookie se-lection when he led the Black and Gold with 144 tackles. Following a two season stint in Miami, Anthony has re-turned to contribute on both defense and on special teams.

Safety Vonn Bell, Ohio State (D2b-16) - Selected in the second round (61st overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft out of Ohio State, Bell was a consensus All-American. As a sen-ior, the Rossville, Ga. native was a Jim Thorpe Award semifinalist after recording 65 tackles, two interceptions, one brought back for a touchdown, a fumble recovery and 11 passes defensed. Bell has translated that collegiate success to the NFL with ease in his first four seasons, ap-pearing in 61 games with 45 starts and filling up the stat sheet with 349 tackles (241 solo), eight sacks, 16 passes defensed, seven forced fumbles and seven fumble recov-eries, one brought back for a touchdown. In Weeks 3 and 4, Bell became the first Saint to post three takeaways in two weeks since 2017, recovering three fumbles, including returning one 33 yards for a touchdown at Seattle, Sept. 22 and recovering two in the second quarter of a 12-10 win over Dallas, Sept. 29, to go with a club-best ten tackles, a pass defensed and forcing one of the two fumbles that he recovered. He’s posted a secondary-best 86 stops, a pick, 1.5 sacks, six passes defensed, two forced fumbles and five recoveries, first in the NFL. Bell’s five recoveries are the most by a Saint since Sammy Knight’s five in 2001. Bell recorded his first career pick in the Nov. 17 win at Tampa Bay.

Defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Florida (D4-19) - Possessing a combination of instincts and speed, this Florida native was a solid value in the fourth round for New Orleans after playing in all 13 games with 12 starts for the Gators in 2018, when he posted 71 tackles, three sacks and four interceptions with two brought back for touch-downs. Gardner-Johnson has appeared in all 16 contests with seven starts, recording 46 tackles (35 solo), one inter-ception, eight passes defensed, one forced fumble, one fumble recovery and three special teams stops.

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE-DEFENSIVE DRAFTS

Defensive End Trey Hendrickson, Florida Atlantic (D3c-17) - This third round draft choice in the 2017 NFL Draft (103rd overall) out of Florida Atlantic brought his raw talent, size, strength and speed to a youthful Saints defensive line. Hendrickson is ranked third on the team with a career-high 4.5 sacks.

Cornerback Marshon Lattimore, Ohio State (D1a-17) - The 11th overall selection in the 2017 NFL draft out of Ohio State and the first corner taken possesses all the traits of a lockdown defender. With his agile, fluid style, Lattimore has the ability to shut down the best wide receiv-ers. He played a critical role in the pass defense unit as a rookie, as he moved into the lineup immediately. For the 2017 season, he finished with 53 stops, five picks, to lead NFL rookies and the Saints, tying a team rookie record, a club-best 18 passes defensed, a forced fumble and a re-covery. Lattimore was the first Saints corner selected to the Pro Bowl since 1995 and was selected as AP Defen-sive Rookie of the Year. His five takeaways (two intercep-tions and three fumble recoveries) in 2018 led the team, adding two more picks in the NFC Divisional Playoff win. In the Sept. 22 win at Seattle, Lattimore led New Orleans with a career-high 12 tackles (career-high ten solo). In the Sept. 29 win over Dallas, he covered Dallas WR Amari Cooper who managed only five receptions for 48 yards and in the Oct. 6 win vs. Tampa Bay, WR Mike Evans didn’t manage a catch, adding a pick Oct. 13 at Jacksonville. For his ef-forts, Lattimore was recognized by being selected to his second Pro Bowl after posting a club-best 14 passes de-fensed.

Defensive Tackle David Onyemata, Manitoba (D4-16) - Possessing a unique combination of size and speed, this Nigeria native had an impressive rookie year after becom-ing the first player from the University of Manitoba to be drafted into the NFL. Despite being new to football, the 2016 fourth round draft pick became a critical member on the interior of the Saints defensive front in 2017, playing in all 16 games with six starts, making 40 tackles and two sacks. Onyemata had a career-high 4.5 sacks in 2018, including a single-game career best three takedowns in last year’s matchup at Dallas, adding another fourth quar-ter takedown against the Cowboys, Sept. 29. Onyemata has provided a punch for the Saints defense, having start-ed all 15 games that he has played in and recording 32 stops and three sacks to tie for fourth on the team, while being a key run-stopping cog to the NFL’s fourth-ranked rush defense.

Safety Marcus Williams, Utah (D2-17) - A three-year

starter at the University of Utah, Williams was twice named All-Pac 12 and earned second-team All-American as a jun-ior when he tied for second in the conference with five in-terceptions. The defender boasts a dangerous mix of speed, fluidity, and instinct that allows him to read offenses and make breaks on the football. His athleticism showed in his rookie season in as he made 70 tackles, four intercep-tions and six passes defensed, adding ten more stops (seven solo) and another pick in the postseason. In 2019, he’s played in all 15 games with 14 starts, posting 52 tack-les (35 solo), the team-high four picks, tied for eighth in the NFL, 13 passes defensed, a forced fumble and two cover-age stops.

Cornerback P.J. Williams, Florida State (D3b-15) - Wil-liams’ career was initially limited by missing all but two games his first two seasons with injuries, but he’s rebound-ed to miss only one game with injury since. An experi-enced starter from Florida State, who developed into one of the nation’s top cover corners, he has made 41 stops, a sack, an interception, three passes defensed and one spe-cial teams stop, serving as the team’s nickel corner for the second straight season. In the Dec. 22 win at Tennessee, Williams further showed his versatility by making the switch to safety after Marcus Williams was forced to depart with a groin injury and then starting in Williams’ place in the regular season finale at Carolina.

STOPPING THE RUN

In rush defense, the Saints gave up only 80.2 net yards per game in 2018, second in the National Football League after giving up 129.4 per game in 2017. The 2019 Saints finished the regular season ranked fourth in the NFL in opponent rushing yards per game (91.3). 2018-19 will mark only the second time they will have done so in back-to back seasons in franchise history, joining the 1986—1987 teams

JUST KICKING IT

Between deep touchdown passes and athletic intercep-tions, players often use their hands to produce the game’s flashiest plays. However, players who use their feet often make the difference between winning and losing, drilling clutch field goals or flipping the field with a well-executed punt.

K Wil Lutz went undrafted in 2016, joining the Baltimore Ravens for training camp. Prior to the start of the regular season, Lutz joined the Black and Gold and immediately took on placekicking and kickoff duties. Lutz has kicked in 64 games, converting 119-of-136 field goal attempts (87.5 percent) and 196-of-202 PATs. He’s also recorded 245 touchbacks on 375 career kickoffs. His 87.5 percent field

goal percentage is best among kickers with at least 50 made field goals in team history. Until the 2018 regular season finale, he’d kicked a field goal in a club-record 36 consecutive games, second-longest streak in National Football League history

With his first field goal on October 20 at Chicago, Lutz set the National Football League record for consecutive field goals on the road (35).

SWISS ARMY KNIFE

New Orleans QB Taysom Hill, in his third year with the club, has brought unheralded versatility to the Saints on both offense and special teams. A participant on every spe-cial teams unit except field goal and PAT, as well as a sig-nal-caller, runner and receiver on offense, in the 2018 reg-ular season, Hill averaged 24.9 yards per return on 14 kick-off returns, had six coverage stops to rank second on the team, completed a ten-yard pass on a fake punt in Week Four and blocked a punt on December 9 at Tampa Bay. Overall in 2018, Hill carried 37 times for 196 yards (5.3 avg.), ranked third on the team with two touchdowns and completed three of seven passes for 64 yards. The blocked punt against the Buccaneers earned him Week 14 NFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors. In the 2018 postseason, he caught a touchdown, made a special teams tackle and executed a successful fake punt.

In 2019, Hill has appeared in every contest, carrying 27 times for 156 yards (5.8 avg.) with one touchdown, catch-ing 19 passes for 234 yards with six touchdowns, deflecting a punt, returning one kickoff for 12 yards and posting two coverage stops. Hill is ranked third on the club in total touchdowns and third in receiving touchdowns. After a multi-threat performance on Thanksgiving night at Atlanta, when he deflected a punt and caught and rushed for a touch-down. Hill became the first NFL quarterback to both rush for and catch a touchdown in the same contest since Chi-cago’s Jim McMahon in 1983, who also played at Brigham Young.

COVERAGE/BLOCK UNITS

New Orleans’ coverage units have been led the past three seasons by linebacker Craig Robertson, Hill and defensive back Justin Hardee Sr..

Hardee led the team with nine stops and a blocked punt recovered for a touchdown as a rookie in 2017. In 2018, Hardee led the team in the regular season with a career-high ten stops, with Hill ranked second with six stops. He has posted five tackles in 2019.

Robertson also made a big play in the November 4, 2018 win over Los Angeles when he stopped rams holder John-ny Hecker short of the first down marker on a fake field goal attempt. He did the same December 23 vs. Pittsburgh in a crucial fourth quarter situation to snuff out a fake punt attempt. Robertson has five special teams stops in 2019.

In another addition to the club’s special teams units, sec-ond-year defensive back J.T. Gray leads the team with 17 special teams stops and has blocked a punt and recovered a fumble on a muffed punt.

RETURN UNITS

Rookie wide receiver/return specialist Deonte Harris has made an impact on New Orleans’ return game. Harris was signed following the NFL Draft out of NCAA Division II As-sumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he finished his college career as one of the most prolific return-ers in NCAA history. In the final game of his college career, he set the NCAA-All Division record for career combined return touchdowns (14).

In 2019, Harris has brought back 36 punts for 338 yards (9.4 avg.), ranked first in the NFC and fourth in the National Football in punt return average, ranked second among rook-ies, following a 53-yard runback for a touchdown in the first quarter of the Sept. 22 33-27 win at Seattle.

Jordan has posted 87 career sacks and over the past nine seasons is only the second player, joining Houston’s J.J. Watt to have 85 takedowns and 45 passes defensed. Dur-ing this time, the Saints own a 43-16 regular season record when he corrals a signal-caller, and they boast a 19-2 mark in a multi-sack performance in the regular season after the Thanksgiving night win at Atlanta, where he tied the club single-game record with a career-high four takedowns. De-spite the advantage of playing at home on defense, all four of Jordan’s multi-sack performances in 2019 have taken place on the road.

Carolina Panthers vs. New Orleans Saints

Sunday, December 29, 2019

New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton New Orleans Saints RE: Game Summary I thought there were a lot of good things I was pleased with. I thought early on we got out and took advantage of field position, created field position and did all the things you need to do to win a game like this. RE: Fast start We tried to focus really on playing our best game. Each of these last, call it the last quarter of the season, really preparing to play playoff football and I thought we started fast so that was encouraging. RE: Team’s play going into playoffs I think good. I was pleased with the second half of last week. I was pleased with how we started this game. RE: Did you watch the Green Bay game Yeah, we watched the end of that game. It was on one of the tv’s in there. Obviously, a close game. We’ll see what happens tonight. Look, those are things you can’t control, so we’ll be ready with either scenario. RE: Confidence in team You just find yourself after you’ve done this long enough to focus on the things you can control and fortunately, we’re in the position to be in the postseason. We know we’re going to be playing a home game. Those are positives. RE: Thoughts on secondary We’ll look at the tape, but I thought overall pretty well. We had some moving parts and we had a handful of guys not going. We had guys back from injury. That was encouraging. Overall, I was pleased. RE: Week 17 game strategy We’re playing for a lot. I can’t speak for the other games, but I felt like our players understood. We wanted to get our 13th win. That’s hard to do. We felt like – we took the approach all week we’re really working on our edge for in preparation when postseason starts. RE: Is there an advantage with something on the line

It’s hard to play this game if you’re not emotionally and physically ready. In other words, there are times when seeding has been established that we’ve sat players and that’s a different picture. I thought from the minute we got here I thought we handled it right. I thought pre-game was on point. I felt like we were ready to play. RE: Team at 13-3 and possibly 3rd seed In 2006 we won 10 games and we were the 2 seed, so it varies sometimes. RE: Significance of winning 13 games Hey, you just want to win more than we lose. You want to win each time you play. I don’t know that that’s a certain benchmark goal. The first goal is winning your division. The second goal may be getting the best possible seed you can get and it’s just hard to do in this league. RE: Consistent back to back winning seasons I was pleased with these guys and their effort. I thought we had a good week. We weren’t in pads during the week and yet our periods were crisp. We got outside some. That was important. RE: Jared Cook He made a heck of a catch today. He’s got a big catch radius. I love to see how he’s playing right now. Last week he had a significant game and a few weeks back prior to going out of the game he already had two touchdowns, so he’s a big part of what we do. RE: Defensive play since 49ers game That’s one game against a real good team, but I think that we’ve added a few pieces because of some injuries, but those guys have done well. RE: Carley McCord death impact We’re devastated because there are so many ties. She was just so visible and around our program. I know our players have reacted and our organization. Thoughts and prayers go out to her family. It was tough news. All of us in Louisiana felt the same way. You can’t explain it. Having young children myself you just… pray for her family. It was really difficult news to get and we got it yesterday. She was just someone that was always smiling, always upbeat and that’s how I remember her in her job. RE: Birthday plans No. We’ll fly back and hopefully watch a little of the evening game and kind of go from there. RE: Andrus Peat and Larry Warford competing I thought it was important to give both he and Larry - I didn’t want to go into a playoff game with both of them fresh off an injury. I thought it was important for those guys to play today, and yeah, they’re always competing. Nick’s (Easton) done a good job. They couldn’t play until they were healthy and they were cleared so... Our plan was to rotate through those three players and we were able to do that. RE: Challenge went your way That’s like a hard 8 in Vegas, huh? Right? That was nice. I thought it was the right rule. I was appreciative of it. There’s my birthday gift.

Quarterback Drew Brees New Orleans Saints RE: Can you speak to the significance of going 13-3 and how difficult that is in this league and going back-to-back years? It is extremely difficult and obviously it was a strong year in the NFC. There are few other teams out there in that position and it’s rare to be 13-3 and the potential be a three seed. That happened to us back in 2011. A lot of strong teams out there, I think it says a lot about our guys. Down the stretch here I think we’ve been an ascending team. We’ve been playing a little bit better each and every week, despite the fact that we have had some guys go down. We have had young guys step up or go sign veteran guys that have come in and played well for us. That happened today on the defensive side of the ball, a couple of guys in the secondary. You always want to be in a position where you can control your destiny, right? I think we did that. We have positioned ourselves to where, hopefully, there is a chance that we can get a first round bye; but if not then hey we are preparing for whoever we are going to play this week and here we go. RE: What do you like best about the way you have been playing lately? I think we have been balanced on offense. I think we have run the ball effectively. We have been efficient in the passing game. We have sort of made some bigger plays in the passing game, with different guys. I think overall, just efficiency, all the things you pay attention to, that equate to winning football - taking care of the football, third down percentage, redzone efficiency, all of those things are ticking up in the right direction, which is good. Defensively, those guys have been battling. Quite a few injuries I think over the last few weeks. The lineup has been getting shuffled around, but guys are stepping up and playing really well. They played fantastic today, especially early on. For us to come on the road and win the way we have, I think the last two weeks, I think that says a lot about the team understanding that good chance we have to go on the road in the playoffs and do the same thing. I think that’s good from a confidence perspective there. RE: Jared Cook You said it, big catch radius, right? You know Eric Reid is a big safety, and that’s the guy who’s on him, and yet you still feel like there’s places where you can throw the ball and where he can get it and nobody else can. I think he tracks the ball well and does some really good things down the field too. Big play last week, big play this week on some of those down the field throws and obviously he is a big weapon for us. RE: NFL Record for fewest turnovers in a season I would say that’s probably the thing we are most proud of. When you talk about this offense, I think you talk about it being explosive and you talk about these weapons and the pace at which we play and for us to be able to say in addition to that, we also take very, very good care of the football. It is something we preach. It’s something we work on. It’s something always talked about and always stressed with what we do. That number alone equates to a lot of winning football, right? And you combine that with some of the other things that we talked about, balance and efficiency and situational football and scoring points when you get the opportunity, those are good things. RE: What were some of things you wanted to see happen with the offense today in preparation for the playoffs?

We wanted to move the ball, we wanted to score points, we wanted to be efficient, we wanted to spread it around, we were able to do all those things, take care of the football obviously and then get the win. And get the win in a way that we felt like we got better today and I think we did. Defensive End Cameron Jordan New Orleans Saints RE: On today’s game This is a statement game. I feel like we’re just about to peak. I feel like we still have room to improve in some of our game. The fact that they were able to put three points on the board that first half, and another seven points in the second half. There’s room for improvement. RE: On today’s outlook heading into the game Control what you can control. All of the seeding pictures, everybody has their educations of “what happens if.” At the end of the day, if we win this game we have a chance. If we win this game, we make a statement. The way we won this game, we made a statement. RE: On today’s performance They’re missing Shaq Thompson. They’re missing Cam Newton. Their leadership in terms of Ron Rivera is gone. This puts it on what we can take advantage of, and I feel like we went out there and did exactly what we’re supposed to do. That’s how you execute a game plan.

Wide Receiver Michael Thomas New Orleans Saints RE: On the team’s goals moving forward Definitely the goal right now is to be the ascendant team. Coach [Sean Payton] talks about it all the time week in and week out. Scoring a lot of points, putting points on the board, and having complete wins from all units from special teams, offense, and defense. We just have to watch the film and continue to build. RE: On today’s mindset Just focus on controlling what we can control. Focus on the task ahead of us, and just make the plays when they present themselves. We knew there was going to be some weather difficulties and stuff. Just perform and play for one another. RE: On today’s performance We saw a lot of big plays from a lot of guys. We spread the ball around. Offense played good, but we can still go in the right direction. The defense, it was nice to see a couple guys back out there. Kiko [Alonso] and some of the other guys we’ve picked up that have joined us. Just seeing them out there contributing and starting to buy into the culture. The most important thing is just playing the perfect game, and on to the next one.

New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton Conference Call with New Orleans Media Monday, December 30, 2019

What do you think about being the three seed and having to play this weekend?

“It was a crazy game last night. I think all of us who watched it just saw the first half and the second half and it was good for football. We're excited about it. I like that we're playing on that Sunday. We'll have, I would say a fairly normal routine relative to the schedule we're used to. We'll get on the tape and start working heavy on Minnesota these next few days and get ready to put together a good practice week and a good plan for Sunday.”

Does prior knowledge of the Vikings help at all, you last played them in 2018. They're probably a different team now, but you have back to back years playing against them.

“We know this, there are some similarities in their structure defensively. (Mike) Zimmer has been there that whole time and actively involved in what they do defensively. I am sure there's some nuances offensively (that are different with a new offensive coordinator in Kevin Stefanaski). I felt they have rushed the ball real well this year and there is all the tape from this season, (and) last season and (you can) go back as far as you want to. And a lot of it is just a matter of the plan that you are putting in place for this game. But, it does feel like a team we played pretty regularly.”

Do you think this team is peaking at the right time heading into the playoffs and why did you want the bye so much for this team?

“No, I think they are two completely different scenarios and it gets back to the question last week, relative to why we were playing starters. It was fairly obvious. We have always taken that same approach and it was a meaningful game. Each year is different and I think with a handful of guys that were out with injury, we got a few of them back yesterday (and) hopefully, we can get a few more back heading into this game. Trying to go into it with some momentum was important.”

What did you think about the rotation and the secondary play yesterday?

“I thought we handled it well. I thought some of the guys we have just brought in did a good job. Janoris (Jenkins) played outstanding, he was one of the players that received a game ball on defense. A.J. (Klein) had a pivotal play for us early in that game. Overall, I was pleased with how we played.”

Is there anything that Drew Brees is doing particularly well recently?

“I think he's getting the ball out. I think we're getting it down the field more than we had earlier the season. That's the one thing you see statistically.”

With him playing at the level he’s playing does that give the team additional confidence heading into the postseason?

“Yes, I think just the momentum relative to us scoring. I think overall the team kind of heads into this postseason with some confidence based on how we've been playing. And yet I think they understand the type of tournament this is.”

Is there anything particular about this team compared to some of your other playoff games in the past?

“It's unique. I would say we've dealt with some adversity this year, maybe a little more so than other years. We've had a lot of guys injured throughout the year at a lot of different positions and I think we added some depth and guys that were able to step in and do a good job, good enough for us to win. I think this season was different that way. There's a lot of similar faces on this roster relative to the last two years. That would be the comparison.”

Why is it so difficult to replicate what Josh Hill brings to this offense?

“He's a guy we use in the run game and pass protection. He does a lot of things well. He plays on special teams, he plays a lot of snaps each week and he's done so for quite a while. He’s someone that has real good athleticism and it's difficult because a lot of different personnel groups might run through him. He might be in the base, he might be in 11 (personnel). Certainly, Jared (Cook) is playing a lot of snaps. The two of them together will play a lot of snaps. He's one of those guys that does a lot of things well.”

How is Taysom Hill’s technique as a receiver relative to the other guys at that pass-catching positons?

“We give them a hard time because sometimes he runs like Barney Rubble, but he runs fast. I think he has real good sense and awareness of coverage. He’s smart, he understands how to set up routes and I think he had a big play yesterday but, but I think he has real good football intelligence.”

When did you think he would become a weapon as a receiver?

“Yeah, I think it's just continued to expand. I think that we've seen him in special teams. We've seen him block on offense. We've seen him run down the field vertically and each week it's just expanded relative to his role. I think he's handled it well. He has a lot of hats. He's in a special teams meeting to start the day. He's up with the quarterbacks, he's basically playing several different positions throughout the course of a game and handles it well.”

New Orleans Saints Tackle Ryan Ramczyk Conference Call with New Orleans Media Monday, December 30, 2019

Three years into your career and you’ve won three straight division titles and been to the playoffs every year, is this becoming the expectation every year?

“That's the thing it's pretty special and I’ve heard other guys talk about what it's like to be on losing teams and not make the playoffs. I'm pretty fortunate to be in this situation and be around the guys on this team and the coaches on this team. I guess I don't really know what it's like to lose or not make the playoffs and then also it's kind of a crazy thing and obviously we're putting in the work every week and all year to be at this spot and chase this opportunity.”

What do you attribute the team resilience to? Did you guys try to ignore that stuff or did you, did you embrace it and channel it?

“Yeah, for me personally, it was kind of a thing that you had a brush off and you had to move on. Move on to the next year and start prepping for this year and I think there's different guys who took it other ways, took it personally and stuff like that, but I think it's something collectively as a team that we moved on from well, we came into this year strong and put ourselves in a position again this year to make a run at these playoffs.”

How do you approach the playoffs knowing how precious these games are from your experience?

“Yeah, it's playoff football, so every single snap, every single play counts and, this week of preparation that we have is just as important. We're going to be in here, we're going to be working and focusing on Minnesota.”

You do have some familiarity with Minnesota. How much does that help preparation wise, I'm sure they've changed some obviously, but how much does it help some preparation wise that you've seen some of this personnel?

“Yeah. Upfront speaking for the O-Line and their D-Line, we have some experience against them and kind of know our match ups. Obviously, we're studying them, seeing what they have been doing this year differently from some of the past. But I think it is beneficial to have played this team before and they will kind of know their tendencies, know kind of how they are going to play this game. I think it is definitely a benefit.”

Do you kind of feel like the offense is playing their best football heading into the playoffs now?

“I think we played a very good game against Carolina, what was that yesterday? I think, we finished the season strong and I know that this team is fired up and ready to go into these playoffs strong. As far as playing our best football, I think there's still a lot more to be had, but I think we are in a good position headed into the playoffs.”

How much does Drew Brees playing at a high level give confidence to the team heading into the playoffs?

“He’s been playing very good football for a long time. Like I said before, we have a ton of faith in Drew and seeing him perform well brings out the best in everyone. With a guy like Drew on our team there is always a shot for us to go and accomplish our goals.”

New Orleans Saints Linebacker A.J. Klein Conference Call with New Orleans Media Monday, December 30, 2019

Yesterday was your first NFL touchdown? Correct. How do you feel?

“Oh, it was good. Obviously, had had quite a few when I was in college, so it's good to get back to the end zone and it was a good turning point. (It) Brought some energy to our team and I think once that happened, we obviously opened up a pretty big margin so (I was) just happy to make the play.”

Did you see something specific on that play?

“No, we're just playing cover two, played my normal post route and he ran a stick route. That's a route I can steal and I went ahead and broke on it and (Will Grier) threw it right to me, thankfully.”

Does that familiarity with the Vikings help with the process of preparing for them?

“Possibly. I haven't seen any of their tape (yet). I haven't seen what they've necessarily done the same or differently from years past. But you could assume that there are going to be some things that are the same, obviously personnel and we know obviously the playmakers on their team, but how to dive more into the tape before I can really say.”

How do you think your play or the defense as a whole, how do you think that play is going so far with you guys heading into the playoffs? Do you feel like you're coming off one of your better performances and better second halves?

“I think these last few games we have, after the 49ers, kind of reset gears and kind of refocused a little bit. I think we’re playing good football. We’re still not playing our best. There are obviously things week to week we can always continue to improve on and whether it's communication or just alignments and fits, there are always things that we can improve on, but we are trending in the right direction and obviously the goal is to peak four weeks from now or whatever it is, five weeks from now. But we'll take it one step at a time, one game at a time. As long as we can continue to improve from week to week, I think we'll be alright.”

Did you watch the game in Seattle last night?

“To be honest, I didn't watch it, but I had the updates on my phone. Not until this afternoon I actually found out how it actually went down, but I had the updates. I mean for me we couldn't control our seeding. Obviously other people kind of decided our fate as far as our seeding. But I will say that we control our destiny. You know what I mean? We can't rely on other people to make plays or other teams to do certain things. We just have to focus on ourselves and focus on our process. It just goes to show, obviously we would have liked Seattle to win, to give us a bye. But you know what I mean? This is just the way it's written for us and it's part of our journey this year.”

How confident are you in the way this team has been constructed the last couple of years? Back to back to back division champs, back to back 13 win seasons, a team that looks like it's capable of winning a variety of ways and in a variety of venues. How confident are you in the way this team is constructed?

“I'm very confident because from top to bottom, we're (a) competitive team and I think we've shown, especially on defense, offense, If we have somebody go down or get a shoelace, guys can come in and fill in at multiple positions across the board. Whether it's on the offensive line, the defense backfield, the linebacker room, quarterback, running back. We have had a lot of moving parts this season, a lot of guys up and down on gamedays. I think it just goes to show the resiliency of this team and how it's built from top to bottom that we can compete, no matter who we put on the field because of how we're built. I think that's positive for us.”

How would you say your playoff experiences from the last two years has helped shape this team? Obviously it has been good experience, but there have been some painful ones too. How do you take that with you into this playoff run?

“Well, I think the longer that you play, you take every single year with a grain of salt and obviously you learn from past mistakes or past scenarios and just try to do your best to, I want to say play a perfect game, but to try to limit the same mistakes that you had in the past. I think this team is very experienced when it comes to the playoffs. We have had a lot of guys that’ve been on even multiple teams that have had playoff experience. I think it goes a long way to, I think having guys that have been there in these situations because it's different than the regular season. It's different in the preseason, it's the same thing every single year. Preseason is different. It picks up when it gets to the regular season. The same thing with the postseason. Tensions are high, it's one and done, and there's a lot on the line. I think to have guys that are experienced in the situation and know how to handle the commotion, obviously cause the fans and everything else. It's beneficial for us.”
