The Jaguars defense was awful and the offense couldn’t make up for it.  Quinn Gray played his best game of the season as he completed 20 of 33 passes for 354 yards with 2 TD passes and 3 interceptions (one of which was a pick six by Mike McKenzie).  Fred Taylor got his work in as he carried the ball 13 times for 54 yards (4.2 ypc).  Maurice Drew was busy too as he carried the ball 5 times for 28 yards (5.6 ypc) and he also caught 2 passes for 31 yards.  Drew returned a kickoff 100 yards for a TD in this game.  Reggie Williams had a breakout game against the Saints as he caught 6 passes for 128 yards (21.3 avg) with a TD.  Rookie John Broussard also made 2 nice grabs for 71 yards.  The Jags finished up with 88 yards rushing on 23 carries (3.8 ypc) and they also completed 20 of 33 passes for 344 yards.

Safeties Sammy Knight (11 tackles) and Reggie Nelson (10 tackles) led a poor effort by the Jags defense.  The Saints finished up with 103 yards rushing on 25 carries (4.1 ypc) and they also completed 35 of 49 passes for 435 yards.
