Saints Beat Carolina On The Road And Take NFC South Lead

The New Orleans Saints beat the Carolina Panthers on Thursday night, 28-10.

The Saints rode their short week right into Charlotte, North Carolina and took control of the NFC South.

Sean Payton went to Mark Ingram again and again, and the 4th year running back responded to the challenge, picking up 100 yards on 30 attempts, and two touchdowns.

Jimmy Graham had 7 receptions for 83 yards and a touchdown.

The Saints snapped a 7-game road losing streak, their longest since 1998. Now they get a little break: they’ll be off until Nov. 9, when they’ll host the San Francisco 49ers.

The Saints will play their next three games at home in the Superdome.

Jason Saul served as WWNO's Director of Digital Services. In 2017 he took a position at BirdNote, in Seattle.
