The Saints offense didn’t score a touchdown despite the return of Taysom Hill, Chris Olave, Cesar Ruiz and Lucas Patrick. New Orleans’ first points came on a safety caused by a bad exchange on a punt attempt by Los Angeles. Running back Alvin Kamara had a solid game with 10 carries for 67 yards and six catches for 55 yards. Olave had eight receptions for 107 yards but neither could get in the end zone.
The Saints defense played its best game in weeks, sacking Los Angeles quarterback Justin Herbert three times but got worn down in the end, giving up 10 points in the fourth quarter.
Saints cornerback Marshon Lattimore and running back Kendre Miller left the game in the second half with hamstring injuries. Cornerback Rico Payton also left with a back injury in the second half. Receiver Bub Means left the game late.
The Saints will play at the Carolina Panthers (1-7) on Sunday, Nov. 3.
