7 takeaways from the Saints’ Week 8 win vs. Raiders

The Saints rediscovered their swagger in shutout fashion on Sunday. 7 takeaways from their win vs. the Las Vegas Raiders, via @RossJacksonNOLA:

It was the first New Orleans Saints shutout since last year’s 9-0 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as they blanked the Las Vegas Raiders 24-0. This performance can be the one looked back upon in a few months if the Saints manage to turn things around successfully following their 2-5 start. Offensively, New Orleans operated near-flawlessly, the defense was at its most-stout all season and sans a missed field goal all special teams units operated with reliability. As complete a game seen by the team this season headlines six takeaways from the big win in the Big Easy.
