The Saints are a funky team.
Sometimes New Orleans looks good, and sometimes it looks awful. The Saints have scored at least 25 points in five of their 12 games and less than 20 in four. The team’s defense has also given up at least 25 points seven times and held opponents to under 20 three times.
The Saints are also among the least-healthy teams in the NFL this season. So are the Jets, their Week 14 opponent.
New York’s ability to stop New Orleans in the backfield could decide this matchup. Taysom Hill isn’t a good quarterback, but he’s a great runner. Dual-threat running back Alvin Kamara is also returning.
With neither team playing consistent football, this game could get weird. Before we find out, let’s dive into a few things Jets fans need to know about the Saints.
