The Rams beat the Saints 30-22 last year in Inglewood, California, in an NFL game that involved a couple of late touchdowns by New Orleans. The Saints (4-7) have beat the Atlanta Falcons and the Cleveland Browns since Rizzi replaced Dennis Allen as the team's head coach.

• The Saints fell to the Los Angeles Rams 21-14 on Sunday to drop to 4-8. They will return to action on December 8, when they play the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium. Kickoff is at 12:00 p.m. CT, and the contest will be regionally televised on FOX (broadcast locally on WVUE FOX 8).

The win got the Rams back to .500 at 6-6, keeping them only one game out of first place in the NFC West behind the Seattle Seahawks. It wasn’t a pretty win or one that will make Sean McVay feel good about the offense, but it was a much-needed victory against a resilient Saints team that had been 2-0 under interim coach Darren Rizzi.
