Derick E. Hingle-USA TODAY Sports

The New Orleans Saints lead the Oakland Raiders 23-7 at halftime of this second preseason game in 2013, with the Saints starters working most, if not all of the first half.

I don't care whether it's the bad Raiders defense or the good offense of the Saints, but I sure enjoyed the start of this game, as the N.O. starters grooved their way to 23 consecutive points to open the first half scoring. Drew Brees has put on a clinic, and Morstead has not punted once.

On the other side of the ball, LB Ramon Humber is tearing it up with a couple of sacks and numerous tackles, while the defense (again, or the Raiders offense) has notched 5 sacks overall, and is stifling Oakland's offensive output.

Check into the full stats below and let us know how you're feeling!!

Here's a link to the Raiders SB Nation site...but be nice if y'all go over there.
