*With the win, the Saints lead the Saints-Jaguars series 3-2, making Jacksonville the ninth franchise the Saints would have a winning mark against.

If you look at the Saints-49ers series, for example, the Saints trail by A LOT. But note this: the Saints have won the past six meetings in the series, and the gap is narrowing. Or look at Saints-Cowboys; the Saints still trail here, but have won six of the last seven meetings, and the gap is closing.

It is going to take a long time to even some of these up (decades, maybe even NEVER); the important thing is, when the Saints play any of these teams NOW, who is going to win. More than likely, the Saints will win, and that is all that matters now.

I have a even more sad stat. We are -3 in turnover this year so far.

You may think it's sad for us, but think how sad it is for the other nine teams, knowing we were the red headed step child of the NFL for so long. LOL

This is a stat we have to turn around if we want to achieve our goals.

I agree. I feel like we are winning in spite of the turnover figure. We need to get more takeaways! Averaging one takeaway per game is not gonna cut it. I hope we pick off Cam Newton at least a couple of times. That would certainly help.
