Saints defense forced three turnovers, scored touchdown in 28-13 victory

John DeShazier | Senior Writer

Foxborough, Mass. – The New Orleans Saints aren't so much concerned with the aesthetics as they are with the scoreboard.

On it Sunday, it said the Saints posted a 28-13 victory over New England at Gillette Stadium. And with that, the team raised its record to 2-1 and took its postgame flight back to New Orleans, the first time the Saints have returned home since evacuating ahead of Hurricane Ida on Aug. 28.

While the modern Saints fan may not be accustomed to seeing the team win in ways that are so defensively minded and dominated, they are accustomed to the Saints winning. And for the second time in its first three games, that's exactly what New Orleans did.

OFFENSE: Any day with no turnovers is a good day. Perhaps, not a spectacular one, as evidenced by New Orleans' 252 yards of offense and 110 net passing yards. But three touchdowns in four trips to the red zone, and touchdowns on both goal-to-go situations, is the kind of efficiency needed until the offense finds its flow. Jameis Winston was efficient enough (13 of 21 for 128 yards and two touchdowns, with no interceptions). ...

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Jameis Winston threw two touchdown passes, Malcolm Jenkins returned an interception for a score, and the New Orleans Saints beat the New England Patriots 28-13 on Sunday.

A week after a career-low passer rating Winston showed better command of the offense, completing 13 of 21 passes for 128 yards. Taysom Hill ran for a touchdown and Alvin Kamara rushed 24 times for 89 yards.
Patriots rookie quarterback Mac Jones entered the day hoping to stretch the field after two games in which the passing attack was mostly underneath. Instead, he found himself under pressure for most of the day and threw three interceptions, two leading to Saints touchdowns. New Orleans sacked Jones three times and hit him 11 times. He finished 30 of 51 for 270 yards and a touchdown.

Saints safety P.J. Williams returned Jones’ first pick of the day 46 yards to set up a 7-yard TD pass by Winston in the second quarter. ...

Drew Brees takes stock of the Saints after their first 3 weeks without him

How do the New Orleans Saints look now that Drew Brees isn’t playing quarterback for them anymore? Who better to know than Brees himself? The future Hall of Famer-turned-media analyst shared his take on NBC Sports’ “Football Night in America” panel when asked by Mike Tirico about his reaction to the Saints’ 2-1 record after they demolished the New England Patriots by a lopsided tally of 28-13.

“Well defensively I feel they’re playing outstanding,” Brees began cheerily, before his tone turned more measured. “Offensively I don’t think they have an identity right now. We know who Alvin...

Fifteen years after U2 and Green Day sang about it, it's happening again.

"The Saints are coming ..."

Coming back home to New Orleans, the place they have been away from for the past month after evacuating from Hurricane Ida and having to set up shop in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.

They've flown from Dallas to Jacksonville, Florida, and back. Then from Dallas to Charlotte, North Carolina, and back.

Then this week from Dallas to Foxborough, Massachusetts, where they secured a much-needed 28-13 victory over the New England Patriots before finally getting a much-needed plane ride back to...

Following a dismal performance in Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers, the New Orleans Saints (2-1) bounced back in Week 3, defeating the New England Patriots (1-2) in Foxboro by the score of 28-13.

In the victory, the New Orleans defense picked off Patriots quarterback Mac Jones three times, including one pick-six. The Saints running back Alvin Kamara led the way, collecting over 100 scrimmage yards and scoring the game's opening touchdown.

Below are my three takeaways from the Saints second victory of the 2021 NFL Regular Season.

NEW ORLEANS — The famous pro wrestler Ric Flair once said about himself, “Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because it's the best thing going.” He might as well have been talking about the 2021 New Orleans Saints' new formula for winning games.


The Saints defeated the New England Patriots 28-13 and for the second time in 3 weeks relied on incredible defense, running the football, and avoiding turnovers to get a victory. It's very different from the past 15 years of efficient high-flying offense with Drew Brees that we are used to. Sean Payton even put the cherry on top of...

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The formula has been established.

Suffocating defense.

Timely special teams.

And an efficient, don’t-beat-yourself, ground-based offense.

This is how the 2021 New Orleans Saints are going to win games this season. More accurately, this is how the Saints must win games this season. Because this is who they are. And just know that three games into the season, the Saints know it.

The Saints found their identity in a dominant 28-13 win against the New England Patriots here on a spectacular fall afternoon at Gillette Stadium. The only thing more impressive than the...

How the Saints found their mojo to bury New England with a brilliant 4th quarter drive

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — The fans have returned to give NFL stadiums a pulse, and you could feel it start to quicken at Gillette Stadium early in the fourth quarter.

The New England Patriots had just scored their first touchdown of the game, a magnificent 22-yard throw and catch from Mac Jones to Kendrick Bourne. It was the type of play that was perfect for the moment. New Orleans Saints rookie corner Paulson Adebo was in great position, but the Patriots receiver simply beat him to the ball and yanked it away for the score. Similarly, the game felt like it was slipping out of the Saints hands...

Twitter reactions to Saints' victory over Patriots in Week 3

Not many people picked the New Orleans Saints to beat the New England Patriots this week. Not NFL experts (two-thirds of whom predicted a Patriots win at home), not sports bettors (most of whom sided with New England), and not even me, having learned my lesson after calling for a Saints win last week (they lost) and a loss the week before (which they won, of course).

But the range of reactions was wide on Twitter. Here are what fans, analysts, and media outlets across the NFL landscape had to say about the Saints’ big 28-14 win:

NEW ORLEANS — The Saints took down the Patriots 28-13 in Foxborough behind a dominant performance from their defense. They picked off rookie Mac Jones three times and sacked him twice.

"I think we're starting to see that we're the strength of our team. And we're going to have to play big in order for our team to have success. And that is just the identity and the formula that seems to be working for us," Saints Malcolm Jenkins said.

Well after being on the road for 29 days the Saints will be coming back to New Orleans with a win. They defeated the Patriots today 28-13 in Foxborough.

The Saints did this on all fronts. They were more physical, they beat them in the turnover battle and they were offensively efficient when they needed to be.

First, let's talk about the turnovers. Sean Payton threw a stat out all weekend long that the patriots are 108-7 at home under Bill Belichick when they win the turnover battle.

The Saints won the turnover battle 3-0 today. That included a pick-six by Malcolm Jenkins to start the...

Different Saints team looking good after bounce-back victory

These New Orleans Saints are different.

They’re different from their predecessors that have won the last four NFL South titles.

In fact they’re different than any other Saints team since Sean Payton became head coach before the 2006 season.

It’s too early to tell just how good they are, though the solid 28-13 victory at New England on Sunday is likely far more indicative of what they ultimately will be than either the atrocious 26-7 loss at Carolina last week or the nearly flawless 38-3 win against Green Bay in the opener was.

This team is different.

Jameis Winston says throwaway-turned-TD was 'all God'

The most unique play of the game in the New Orleans Saints’ dominant road win wasn’t supposed to happen. With few open throwing windows and a New England Patriots defender wrapped around his legs, Jameis Winston flung the ball away in hopes of sending it out of bounds to buy another down. On the other end of the field, away from Winston’s sightline, a penalty flag signaled a Patriots holding penalty.

But he didn’t put enough juice behind it, and the ball fell within the field of play just close enough to Marquez Callaway for the second-year Saints wideout to secure it for six points. As...

Malcolm Jenkins gets another Pick 6 in Gillette Stadium, pushes career total to 7

Malcolm Jenkins made a visit to the Gillette Stadium end zone for the second time of his 13-year career in Sunday's 28-13 victory over the New England Patriots.

His latest came on the first play of the third quarter when he reeled in a Mac Jones pass that bounced off tight end Jonnu Smith and raced 34 yards for a score.

But this wasn't the most memorable pick 6 for Jenkins in this stadium. That distinction would belong to the one he had in 2015 when playing for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Jenkins intercepted Tom Brady that day and sprinted 99 yards for a touchdown.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Playing in his first game in a New Orleans Saints uniform since the 2014 season, receiver Kenny Stills did not take long to make his presence felt.

Less than five minutes into the game, Saints quarterback Jameis Winston stepped up into a clean pocket and saw Stills snap off his downfield route into a soft spot in the Patriots defense.

Winston drilled the veteran receiver, who picked up 17 yards on the play to set the Saints up at the New England 26. Five plays later, New Orleans scored the first points of the game on a touchdown pass from Winston to Alvin Kamara...

The ecstasy of victory lasted all but one week for the Saints after a 38-3 demolition of the Green Bay Packers. The following week, the Saints were humbled in a 26-7 loss to the Carolina Panthers. At 1-1, New Orleans was eager to try and take the bad taste from Charlotte out of its mouth as it traveled to Foxboro to play the 1-1 New England Patriots.

The Saints started the first half against the Patriots showing the energy that had seemingly left their collective body against Carolina. After New Orleans took a 7-0 lead in the first quarter, it held Mac Jones and the New England attack at...

Week 3 takeaways, big questions: Ravens' record kick, Chiefs' turnover woes, Steelers' offense sputters again

Week 3 of the 2021 NFL season brought us some crazy endings. Through a wild final two minutes, the Chargers edged past Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs after Kansas City struggled with ball security. The Ravens avoided an upset loss to the Lions with a record-setting 66-yard field goal from Justin Tucker that rang off the crossbar and went through to end the game. The Falcons won a battle of winless teams, hitting a field goal to beat the Giants.

Elsewhere, the Cardinals overcame an early deficit against the Jaguars to roll to 3-0, and the Steelers' offensive issues continued in a loss to...
