New Orleans Saints had their comeback on Week 2, after losing to the Detroit Lions in Week 1. They trailed the Baltimore Ravens 14-3 at halftime before taking over late and winning 24-17 on the road.
The fourth quarter belonged to New Orleans when they closed the game with 15-point including quarterback Tyler Shough’s game-winning 1-yard touchdown run with 1:28 remaining. Julian Blackmon then intercepted Lamar Jackson to give the final blow to the Ravens.
Sunday’s win has changed how national outlets view New Orleans. The Saints entered Week 2 outside the top 15 in several major rankings. After beating Baltimore, most of those outlets moved New Orleans up, with some now placing the Saints inside the top 15.
