INGLEWOOD, Calif. — New Orleans coach Dennis Allen knew coming into Thursday night's game against the Los Angeles Rams that the Saints couldn't be conservative in their decisions. Not when they were facing a resurgent Rams offense and with the Saints' own playoff hopes on the line. New Orleans' aggressiveness though turned into one of its biggest shortcomings in its 30-22 loss. The Saints turned it over on downs three times, which the Rams converted into 13 points. Derek Carr's only interception of the night also resulted in Los Angeles scoring a touchdown on its ensuing possession.
