NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Saints first-round DE Marcus Davenport is expected to miss "about a month" with a toe injury.
The 14th overall pick in April, Davenport was injured on the final play of the win over the Vikings this past Sunday night. Rotating in with Alex Okafor and Cameron Jordan, Davenport has four sacks through seven games. It's an obvious hit to the depth up front with the Rams coming to town this week. Oct 31 - 1:13 PM

 

Not a game changing loss for them but significant nonetheless, as they have very little depth behind him. Especially considering their upcoming schedule:

vs Rams

at Bengals 

vs Eagles

vs Falcons

at Cowboys

at Bucs

 

I can't see them getting out of that better than 3-2, and possibly worse.

 

We really need to take care of business in our upcoming games:

vs Bucs

at Steelers

at Lions

vs Seahawks

at Bucs

at Browns

 

Should not lose more than one of those (most likely Steelers if any). Good opportunity to make up some ground on the Aints and possibly surpass them. Most think the division comes down to our meetings in week 15 and 17 but I think this upcoming stretch of game is more important. If we can come out ahead here all we'll need to do is beat the Aints at home and the division is ours, regardless of what happens week 17.

I agree we shouldn't lose more than one, but don't sleep on the Seahawks.  They always play us very well and they've looked much better than expected this season.

Plus Russell Wilson is the luckiest QB in the world when he plays us.

I miss that rivalry at its peak.  I hated when we lost, but the games were always some of the best of the season due to the combination of young, athletic QBs + great defenses.

Damn I had forgotten that they're playing the Eagles, Falcons, AND Rams at home. What a draw. At least we get to host Seattle. 

And they got Steelers at home we have to go to Pissburgh on a short week...

We both always have Falcons home and away...

Saints gonna take L's vs. LA, Cincy, Philly, and ATL. Maybe even Cowboys.

We're gonna beat TB, DET, SEA, TB, and CLE. Maybe even Pitt.

We're in good shape right now, Saints injuries or not.

So Saints are gonna go on a 4-5 game skid here, while the Panthers continue to string together wins?

Why?

    • Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.
    • I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.
    • When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
