Handwerger: Saints turn corner against Packers, but it may be too little, too late
 

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Drew Brees stood on a dais underneath the stands at Lambeau Field early Sunday evening and wouldn’t allow himself to proclaim shock or anger or anything of that sort after the Saints lost 28-27 to the Packers.

Instead, he did something else. He went another direction.
