Can Kaelin Clay step up and be a factor?

Lattimore is going to be on Funchess so his targets are going to be limited.

Clay has now two full weeks of practice with the starters.   I know he had a pretty decent preseason and made the original cut so they saw potential.  

He was traded and waive and we snatched him back up pretty quickly so we definitely still had an interest in him.  

I truly believe this is the key to the whole game.  If he can make them pay for stacking the box we might just pull it off and beat the Saints.   I know there is a ton of pessimism but he made some key plays in the Tampa game late to help us win so he has the skill to play.  

Thoughts?

It's possible, but outside the numbers is where the saints have strength, we need to attack the middle of the field with Vaccaro and Klein being out with injury.  IMO, Funch will be covered by Lattimore and Olsen will get all the attention accross the middle opening up room for Dickson or maybe Bersin to have a good game and be big factors.

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers
