The Saints kick off the fourth quarter with a bang -- a nice touchdown run by Antonio Pittman. Will they keep the Bengals out of the end zone the rest of this game? Saints 24, Bengals 12.

I like the way the defense has looked against the outside run all night. They don't seem to give a lot of ground out there and really pursue to the ball well. It's the quick hitters up the middle that can give this team trouble ... The special teams have been solid, but that was expected after a rough game last week and the opponent this week

Speak of the devil, the team brought back a punt for a touchdown (which was called back because of holding). Tramain Hall made a fantastic return, but it was all for naught. He had been facing an uphill climb in making the team. Maybe that play will help him (whether called back or not)? ... Nobody was blocked on that sack. I'd guess miscommunication ... The Bengals brought the heat on that drive, but the Saints still didn't execute offensively.
