NEW ORLEANS — On Sunday, the Saints defeated the NFC South leader Atlanta Falcons to break the team's seven-game losing streak. This was the team's first game with Darren Rizzi at the helm.
That game also sent Saints running back Alvin Kamara to new heights as the record holder of rushing yards.
After the game, Rizzi gathered the team in the locker for his first post-game rally and proudly presented Kamara with the game ball for crushing the rushing record.
The running back needed just 12 yards to break the team's franchise rushing record of 6,500 yards held by Mark Ingram.
It took Kamara just two rushes in the first quarter to pass Mark Ingram on the Saint's all-time rushing list.
