.Due to the fact that they tapped the services of Dennis Allen in 2022, the Saints are actually the only group in the NFL along with a favorable aspect differential (+80) however a losing document (18-22).Of the 13 teams along with a beneficial factor differential, 12 created the playoffs a minimum of when. 8 got there two times. Saints are the outlier.-- John Sigler (@john_siglerr) Oct 14, 2024.The New Orleans Saints' begin to the 2024 season looked unbelievably excellent, as they scored 91 aspects and also possessed a +62 point differential via two full weeks, which is actually outstanding. The difference in points recorded and also aspects allowed is one of the NFL's most important statistics and also clues of excellence.Today after Full week 6 has actually wrapped up, they sit at 2-4 along with 167 total points (19 PPG during the course of that stretch of four weeks) as well as are to a +20 point differential. This has actually quite been the case with Dennis Allen as well as his groups throughout his two previous times along with the Saints.Since Allen was actually worked with in 2022, they are actually the only group with a positive aspect differential however also a losing record. During that period they have a +80 aspect differential and an 18-22 document. Furthermore, of the 13 groups with a beneficial point differential in the course of that span, 12 made the playoffs at the very least once, as well as eight produced it twice, with the Saints being actually the only group to miss out.This signifies that the Saints succeed significant when they succeed and also drop tiny when they shed, however it additionally indicates they drop the large bulk of their video games in close matches, which suggests a failing to close the books games in the old phases. That has actually certainly been among the greatest objections of this Saints staff since Sean Payton left, and also a lot more importantly, Drew Brees.
