this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; The streak is now at eight. That's VIII in Roman numerals if you prefer speaking Super Bowl lingo. That's how many consecutive times the Saints have lost to a team that won the Super Bowl the season before. https://www.theadvocate.com/new_orle...ticle-nav-prev...

They could go on a tear at any moment and they are going to be pissed after last week.

Re: Saints haven't fared well against Super Bowl champs from previous year; Saints play Eagles Sunday
the line has swelled to 8, with the over 57. I don't think the Eagles can win a shootout with us in the dome
as for the 8 in a row streak, SB teams have a tendency to be, you know, pretty good. It's a stat that's not really a stat |

This team has shown that they will study and expose weaknesses (see Redskins & Cincy games). Bengals was a "trap" game to a lot of the NFL experts & we hung 51 on em. I'm fully expecting the Feagles to get skull drug come Sunday. |

Could, but I don't expect it. They'll be quoting Mora.

Re: Saints haven't fared well against Super Bowl champs from previous year; Saints play Eagles Sunday
The Eagles have only put up more than 30 points once this season, are 4-5, and have lost 2 0f their last 3 games. What they did before August this year is irrelevant.
What is making them relevant this season? The Saints on the other hand have put up less than 30 only twice. |
