How’s that for a win? The New Orleans Saints outlasted the Cleveland Browns in Week 16 to improve their record to 6-9 on the season, keeping their playoff hopes alive another week. And they were justifiably amped up in the locker room after the game. Christmas music was booming loud enough from the visitors’ locker room for Browns media to hear it while crowded outside of the home team’s locker room.
Catch up on the Saints postgame quotes from head coach Dennis Allen, running back Alvin Kamara, quarterback Andy Dalton, and other key members of the team:
“We knew the elements were going to be in play… We just got to come out here and play football."
It was 6°F at kickoff, but Alvin Kamara and the @Saints were able to get a win in the cold 🥶

"It's cold. It was cold when I had the ball. It was cold on the sidelines. It was cold when I was walking in the tunnel. It was cold when I was walking out the tunnel…

"When you can lineup and they know you're running the ball, and you can still run successfully… that's a good feeling as an offense."
