The New Orleans Saints fell to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football in Week 9.

It was another embarrassing, sloppy performance from the Saints. Those seem to keep stacking up for this year's team.

A former fan favorite and star player, Lance Moore, is frustrated. He called out the team as the game dwindled last night.

Embarrassing is absolutely the word for it.

The team was punchless.

The Ravens continuously ran the ball down the throat of the Saints. Keep in mind that their top two running backs did not play, either.

Veteran journeyman Kenyan Drake had a great game against a Saints' defense that used to excel in run defense.

Lamar Jackson did Lamar Jackson things, but their passing game didn't do much at all. The secondary played fairly well on the back end outside of the early touchdown throw from Jackson.

On offense, the Saints continued to pick up very little on first down.

That put them in long second and third down situations. Those do not work in the current offense's favor.

Andy Dalton had a rough game, and the offensive line crumbled multiple times in front of him. Dalton continues to struggle mightily on third downs when pressured. A lack of running game certainly doesn't help that.

An odd, garbage time touchdown was the only TD that they put on the board.

Outside of that, they stalled multiple times in Ravens' territory, and Dalton had a costly interception early in the fourth quarter.

Once again, it was just a conglomerate of frustration for the Saints and their fans. Moore was a part of prolific offenses throughout his career with the Saints.

This year's offense in New Orleans is not nearly that consistent.
