With three consecutive close losses by a collective 14 points, the Saints are becoming the heartbreak kids of the NFL. "I've lost close games before, and I've lost games you thought you were going to win, but three in a row? I don't think I've ever done that," coach Mike Ditka said. Making matters worse as the Saints prepared for the Tennessee Titans was the fact that QB Billy Joe Hobert, TE Cam Cleeland and RB Ricky Williams may not play due to neck, knee and elbow injuries, respectively.
