The New Orleans Saints will enter the NFC playoffs as the fifth seed and will take on the winner of St. Louis Rams at Seattle Seahawks game next week following today’s 23-13 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the win by Atlanta against Carolina.
More concerning for the Saints is the fact that Chris Ivory, Jeremy Graham and Malcolm Jenkins left the game in the first half with injury. We’ll probably get an update on that later this evening or on Monday.
Drew Brees was 22-of-38 for 196 yards the Saints. Running back Reggie Bush had a good game, rushing for 70 yards on nine carries.
