Jameis Winston directed three second-quarter scoring drives, and the New Orleans Saints defeated the Los Angeles Chargers 22-17.
One might think Dennis Allen would be relatively happy that his New Orleans Saints had two good days of work against the Los Angeles Chargers and then won Sunday's preseason game 22-17.The accomplishments of the past four days were diminished by extreme weather in Southern California. There was also tight end Jimmy Graham suffering a"medical episode" and being disoriented Friday night when he was taken into custody in the Los Angeles area."There's been a lot.
Most of the starters did not play after receiving plenty of work during Thursday and Friday's joint practices. Chargers quarterback Easton Stick played the entire game and had a pair of rushing TDs. Stick's 1-yard TD on a sneak got the Chargers within five points with 3:46 remaining. Stick, who is being counted on to serve as Justin Herbert's backup, was 21 of 41 for 233 yards and two interceptions. He also had seven carries for 63 yards.
New Orleans got its lone touchdown early in the second quarter on Kendre Miller's 7-yard run off left guard. The Saints started the drive on the Chargers 33 after first-round pick Bryan Bresee recovered Stick's fumble. Stick turned it over while being sacked by defensive end Payton Turner.
