Saints stun Ravens in comeback win
BALTIMORE, Md. - This time, the comeback didn't fall short.
A week after falling to the Detroit Lions after a failed two-point conversion, the Saints successfully completed a comeback after trailing the Ravens 14-6 at halftime. New Orleans held Baltimore to three points in the second half and ended up winning 24-17.
The Saints put up 15 points in the fourth quarter while shutting out the Ravens in that same span. Tyler Shough plowed in the go-ahead touchdown on a fourth-down goal-line run to get the Saints their first lead.
The Saints converted on multiple third and fourth downs on the go-ahead touchdown drive, which ended up killing six and a half minutes of clock.
Shough finished his day 27 of 34 passing for 252 yards and two total touchdowns, one of which was the game-winning score.
The loss might've come at a stiff cost. Saints left tackle Kelvin Banks was carted off the field late in the third quarter after Ravens pass rusher Mike Green landed awkwardly on Banks' leg.
