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...

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?

    • This is true.  But I don't think you can really do that with Bryce.  Week 1 was extremely consistent with what Bryce has been each season entering a year and overall as a QB.  I think the real liar is just the anomaly week 18 game last year.  Without that one random game.......Bryce Young's career to date really isn't really debatable at all.  He doesn't belong on the field.   That's at best a backup.  The one game doing a LOT of lifting given how many other games are out there. 
    • Yeah Kyler definitely hasn't lived up to billing. But this is a tough league. If a guy doesn't want greatness there's nothing you can do. But even the guys who don't want that and spend their days playing video games instead of studying film can shine brighter more often than someone who is just physically outmatched altogether. Unfortunately we have learned this in real time. But I agree entirely about first overall picks in general. You don't need to be in that slot to get a decent starting QB. That's another tough lesson the Panthers are learning. Anywho. We'll see how our head coach has his team prepared this Sunday. I just want to stop looking horrible early in the season when everything is still at stake. These late season runs when we are already eliminated do nothing for me and they have clearly done nothing for our team culture as previously suggested.
    • Rather than his physical stats, I was kinda alluding to the fact that Kyler hasn't lived up to the hype either. Although, he has had some modest success for short stints. The thing is, both teams could have probably had the same success rates with third round picks as QBs over first rounders. Yanno?
