Packers Shutout Saints, Secure Playoff Spot

The New Orleans Saints suffered a crushing 34-0 defeat against the Green Bay Packers, marking their first shutout of the 2024 NFL season. Rookie quarterback Spencer Rattler, filling in for injured Derek Carr, faced immense criticism after the game, completing only 15 of 30 passes for 153 yards and committing two turnovers. Despite the harsh conditions and relentless Packers' defense, Rattler showed humility, attributing the loss to his performance and vowing to improve. This loss has added to the Saints' struggles, dropping their record to 5-10 and casting doubt on Rattler's future prospects. The Packers, led by a strong ground game and a formidable defense, secured a postseason berth, highlighting head coach Matt LaFleur's continued success. Interim head coach Darren Rizzi's efforts to solidify his position appear challenged as the Saints' season continues to unravel.
