The Saints are currently riding a 2 game win streak going into their game against the Vikings this Sunday, but in order to win New Orleans Head Coach Dennis Allen says that the Saints need to improve the play of their defensive line. According to Allen the Saints defensive line can no longer allow the quarterback to run the ball and lose one-on-one matchups if they want to beat a Vikings offensive line that has played well up to unto this point. The Saints will play the Vikings on Sunday at noon on Fox.
