NEW ORLEANS — The New Orleans Saints are too blessed to be stressed, after Pope Francis' tweet Sunday morning.

The tweet said, "Today we give thanks to the Lord for our new #Saints. They walked by faith and now we invoke their intercession."

His #Saints seems to have automatically added the football team's logo.

But the Saints took it in stride, and responded with a tweet of their own.

New Orleans went on to win against Jacksonville 13-6.
