Saints’ official Record Versus Clubs that are above.500 is Abysmal.

The New Orleans Saints fell to yet another team with a winning record Thursday night, and the manner in which the Saints lost is reflective on a huge problem.

Any hope for a postseason game will almost certainly come from winning the NFC South, but given the Saints’ track record

against winning teams this year, it’s hard to blame anyone who would feel like the juice isn’t worth the squeeze.

Sure, all bets are off once you get into the tournament, but based on how the Saints have performed against teams above.500

this season—a.k.a. playoff caliber teams—we have a pretty good idea of what would happen.

The New Orleans Saints’ performance against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday Night Football reduced their record to 7-8.

The Saints have a 7-8 record with a 6-2 record versus teams that are in the losing league. Without a doubt, the Saints’ record is

1-6 when compared to teams with winning or.500 records, and it’s an ugly 1-6.

Simply put, how ugly? The Saints, on the other hand, never had a lead in their defeats by the

Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, and, on Thursday night, the Rams.

Not even for one instant. That is not good.

A lot of it has to do with coaching, especially when you look at the players that make up the Saints roster.

When it comes to the quarterback position, Derek Carr has to wear a lot of this too. Still, we don’t know

how he would look with an offensive-minded coach as opposed to the defensive-minded Dennis Allen.

There have been teams under a microscope for the dichotomy of how they play against teams with winning

record vs. losing ones. The Dallas Cowboys and Miami Dolphins are prime examples of this, but the

difference between them and the Saints is, they are seen as contenders, and have the records to prove it.

The Saints certainly do not have that.

At the end of the day, this season for the New Orleans Saints has had its share of peaks and valleys, even

if the peaks haven’t even been that high. When you have a track record like this against winning

teams, there is a defined ceiling, and it doesn’t even look like anyone is in danger of bumping their head on it.
