Saints interim head coach Joe Vitt says if the team hopes to beat their next opponent, they'll have to have the same level of preparation that they had for the Atlanta Falcons.

"The only thing that we can control this week is how we prepare for our next opponent, which is the Raiders out in Oakland. It's a road game," Vitt said Monday at his weekly press conference.

"If we don't prepare for the Oakland Raiders the same way that we prepared for Atlanta, with the same detail, with the same concentration, with the same commitment, then it's gonna be a long day on Sunday."

The (4-5) Saints will face the Raiders Sunday in Oakland at 3:05pm.
