Saints can’t hide from the weakness that keeps limiting their offense

The New Orleans Saints have struggled badly on offense this season, with points being hard to come by. It was costly against the Atlanta Falcons, but this is way more than just a one game issue. The Saints are currently tied for last in the league in scoring, managing just 15 points per game.

A major contributor to the Saints scoring woes is their inability to finish drives in the red zone. They rank dead last in the NFL in red zone touchdown efficiency, converting just 34.48% of their opportunities. To put that in perspective, the next worst team the Houston Texans sit considerably higher at 44.
