"They all ain't pretty!" New Orleans Saints edge Chase Young bellowed to no one in particular, but to everyone who witnessed the Saints' 23-22, overtime victory against Cleveland on Sunday in the Caesars Superdome. Young's message was gospel against the Browns, because while New Orleans' first game after its bye week wasn't aesthetically pleasing, the Saints (3-5) scratched out their first home win this season by overcoming myriad, self-created hurdles and potholes.

It was a slog featuring two teams that took turns whiffing on opportunities — and then things took a swing toward the wild side. For 54 minutes of regulation, the New Orleans Saints and Cleveland Browns combined for just four field goals. Then they erupted for 33 combined points in the final six minutes and overtime, with the Saints finishing on top by the thinnest of margins after Cleveland's game-winning 2-point conversion attempt fell incomplete to clinch a 23-22 win. It was New Orleans' first win at the Caesars Superdome this season, and it pushed its season record to 3-5 — somehow good enough for a three-way tie for first place in the dreadful NFC South heading into Sunday night's game.

Estime carried the ball 15 times for 72 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-22 overtime win over the Browns. he also caught his only target for five yards. It was a revenge game for the third-year RB, who was cut loose by Cleveland last week and got claimed on waivers by New Orleans to offer some depth for a depleted backfield. Estime played for the Saints in 2025 and didn't need to learn Kellen Moore's playbook, putting him in prime position to step into a big role right away, and he led the team with 16 touches ahead of Alvin Kamara's nine.
