Story summary

The New Orleans Saints lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 16-10 in the NFL's first regular-season game held in France on Sunday at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis. Despite protests and unrest in Paris, the match proceeded as planned with heightened security measures. The Saints struggled with a paltry 18 yards rushing, contributing to their poor performance that leaves them with a 2-5 record for the season.

Meanwhile, Aaron Rodgers of the Steelers moved past Peyton Manning on the all-time touchdown passing list during this game and threw one touchdown pass, bringing his career total to 540. The win secured the Steelers' third consecutive victory, improving their record to 5-2. Despite the successful outcome for Pittsburgh, concerns remain about the Saints’ performance, particularly their run game and overall team development under a young coaching staff. Coach Kellen Moore emphasized the need for evaluation and potential changes during their upcoming bye week. The match marked a historic moment in NFL history but also highlighted the logistical challenges of hosting an international game amidst civil unrest.
