NEW ORLEANS - It was something of a script flip for the New Orleans Saints in their week three matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Instead of trailing early, the Saints were the ones with the early lead after scoring their first first quarter touchdown of the season.

But instead of the Saints orchestrating another miraculous second-half comeback, the Raiders took the lead in the fourth quarter and won the game 35-27 to drop the Saints to 1-2 on the season.

Las Vegas scored 19 unanswered points to close out the game, and the Saints turned the ball over on their last four drives with three fumbles and an interception. For the first time this season, the Saints were held scoreless in the fourth quarter.

New Orleans will stay at home for week four for Monday Night Football against the Atlanta Falcons.
