It was a shootout in the Caesars Superdome in Week 5, with the New Orleans Saints ultimately emerging victorious over the Seattle Seahawks.
Offensive spotlight: No Russell Wilson, no problem — the Geno Smith train keeps rolling. The veteran quarterback went 16-of-25 for 267 yards and three passing touchdowns today, recording five big-time throws in the process. If the grades hold post-review, it will be Smith's second consecutive 90.0-plus PFF grade.
Defensive spotlight: Seahawks interior defender Shelby Harris clogged up rushing lanes all day, recording two tackles and one defensive stop. On first review, he graded positively on 39.1% of his snaps.
Rookie spotlight: Chris Olave added another top performance to his record, catching 4-of-6 targets for 54 yards, one touchdown and two first downs. He caught one of his two contested targets and recorded two plays of 15 or more yards.
Offensive line spotlight: The Saints offensive line gave up only five pressures on first review, but they combined for another 10 losses that didn't result in pressure, which could be a huge factor in their grades.
