Summary
45-24 was the final score as New Orleans squandered a nationally televised home game against Atlanta, dropping to 1-3 on a night meant to celebrate the Superdome’s post-Katrina reopening.
Kellen Moore said the Saints failed to match the stadium’s energy, calling it a poor coaching and execution effort after a week spent stressing the game’s historical significance.
Moore said the team viewed the anniversary matchup as a chance to show what kind of team it is, but instead delivered another uneven performance with too little consistency.
The loss deepened frustration around a Saints team that Moore said has shown flashes, yet remains far from where it wants to be and still has “a lot of work to do.”
