Half-Time Report: Jimmy Graham touchdown gives New Orleans Saints advantage

A touchdown from Jimmy Graham in the second quarter of the New Orleans Saints' clash with the Arizona Cardinals hands his side the lead at the break.

The New Orleans Saints lead by a touchdown at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in their NFL clash with the Arizona Cardinals.

Carson Palmer started well for the visitors as he got their offense moving towards the New Orleans side of the field with a couple of throws to wideout Larry Fitzgerald. The Cardinals took the lead when running back Alphonso Smith powered into the endzone with a three-yard run.

The Saints were back in it minutes later, though, as Drew Brees fired a 27-yard strike to wide receiver Robert Meachem, who re-signed for Sean Payton's side last week, on a go route over two Cardinals defenders to tie the scores.

New Orleans took the lead late in the quarter when Brees engineered another scoring drive as he drove his team downfield with his arm and he found his favourite redzone target Jimmy Graham for a 16-yard strike.

Both sides had opportunities late in the half to get back on the board but both defenses tightened up as the second quarter ended with the score 14-7 to the Saints.
