The Saints are breaking out their alternate black helmet for the second time this season tonight against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a big contest with playoff implications.
Kenyan Drake rushed for 93 yards and two touchdowns, Justin Houston had an interception to go with his third straight multiple-sack game, and the Baltimore Ravens beat the New Orleans Saints 27-13.
Former Saint and current Bengals corner Eli Apple will be playing in NOLA for the first time since he posted a slanderous tweet about the city. Saints fans are already roasting him on social media, declaring it #EliAppleHateWeek.
The Seattle Seahawks will be without running back Rashaad Penny for the rest of the season after he suffered a broken fibula in his lower left leg in Sunday’s loss to New Orleans.
The Atlanta Falcons know this is a rebuilding season, but would like to avoid facing another 0-3 start. That means Atlanta needs to find a way to win in Seattle on Sunday against the Seahawks.
