First-year head coach Kellen Moore made the switch to Shough after Rattler committed six turnovers in a 26-14 loss to Chicago and a 23-3 loss at Tampa Bay. The offense showed signs of improvement with Shough, particularly between the 20-yard lines, but it continued to struggle in the red zone. The Saints went 5-4 in Shough's starts but averaged fewer than 20 points a game.
