After trailing for most of the game, the Saints took the lead in the fourth quarter through a Taysom Hill touchdown run. Justin Jefferson put the Vikings back in front five minutes later, only for Greg Joseph to miss the extra point, allowing Wil Lutz to tie the game with a career-long 60-yard field goal. Joseph put the Vikings back in front again with a 47-yard kick after a long reception by Jefferson with less than 30 seconds to play, only for a Chris Olave catch to put the Saints in range of another game-tying field goal from 61 yards; however, Lutz's kick bounced back off the left upright and the crossbar to give the Vikings a 28–25 win.

Andy Dalton started his second game at quarterback, but it was utility player Taysom Hill that stole the show in the Superdome that afternoon, who helped guide New Orleans to victory over the fiesty Seahawks 39–32 thanks to a phenomenal 3-touchdown performance from him, the last of which being a 60-yard run that put the Saints ahead for good. With the thrilling win, the Saints improved to 2–3. </p><div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Week_6:_vs._Cincinnati_Bengals">Week 6: vs. Cincinnati Bengals</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=2022_New_Orleans_Saints_season&action=edit&section=13" title="Edit section: Week 6: vs. Cincinnati Bengals"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div style="border: 1px solid #aaa;
