Week 3 at New Orleans:
Going up against another of the top teams in the league with the QB taken 2nd overall in the 2017 draft, Darnell Mills 70, who battles DeAndre Henson as the top QBs in the league. The Saints got on the board to start getting a FG late in the 1st. We won the second quarter as Henson threw a couple TDs but late in the quarter the Saints scored off a punt return to cut the lead to 13-10. We got a trio of FGs in the 3rd and though Mills did throw a TD in the 4th they were unable to take the lead and we won 22-17.
DeAndre Henson went 8/13 for 342 yards with 2 TDs and 2 picks and ran 5 times for 34 yards. Patrick Rodgers ran 11 times for 21 yards. Clay Davis caught 8 of 13 targets for 175 yards.
Ronald Schroeder made 11 tackles and a sack and a forced fumble. Conner Raymond, Dashawn Mallow, and Clarence Boone each had a sack as well. Taylor Cates also forced a fumble and Stan Howe and Butch Bullock each recovered one. Tommy Criswell had a pick.
Erik Foerstel made all 3 FG tries with a long of 40 yards.
Kris Baker suffered a stress fracture in his leg and will miss quite a bit of time and Joseph McCrary, who would likely replace him, broke his Tibia and will miss at least a month.
