With the strong possibility of home field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs on the line, New Orleans Saints Head Coach Sean Payton says that Jabari Greer, Scott Shanle and Jeremy Shockey will play Sunday at Charlotte in the regular season finale against the Carolina Panthers.

Payton said that all three were close to playing against Tampa Bay but that he decided to wait another week to bring them back. Payton made the comments on NFL Radio on Sirius Monday morning.

Payton added that Greer would play, regardless of whether the Vikings lose at Chicago tonight, which would give the Saints home field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs. Greer has not played since week eight (November 8) against Carolina due to a groin injury, eventually diagnosed as a sports hernia which required surgery. Greer has a pair of interceptions, including one return for a touchdown this season.

Shanle missed the loss to Tampa Bay Sunday with a concussion suffered in the 24-17 loss to Dallas on December 19. Shanle has 68 tackles and a pair of interceptions on the season.

Shockey has missed the last two games with a painful turf toe. He has 48 catches for 569 yards and three touchdowns on the season.

TJ Yates has a better WR corps than what Moore will have to throw to on Sunday.

doesn't matter. The Matt Moore Express is curbstomping people right now.....the Saints are flopping around like a fish out of water. Matt Moore could have Zod, a kid picked up off a McDonald's playground slide, and my grandma to throw to.....it doesn't matter as the result will be the same. Matt Moore is a half man, half god, half possible centaur.....

      OTA's

      I think he's gone, and rightfully so, if he turns in another losing record. The "talented roster," regardless of how true or not, is a double-edged sword. If the roster is so much improved now from 202X then why are you still producing losing seasons? On one hand, maybe that's what needs to happen. Have the GM hire the new coach, and then have the new coach pick his guy to run his system. That is typically how it works in the NFL. Not the forced inheritance deal we have had in place.

      Hinging on Brooks to be our spark...be good if it happens... but not holding my breath....RB next draft. Morgan gambled...it would be a 2 year payoff if thing happened.

      Only way Canales is fired is if we are attrocious everywhere....  defense /special teams and offense..  There are enough "questions" on if BY9 is the guy that ownership wouldn't fire the coach for "just" mid qb play.  Especially with as talented a roster that has played "well enough" to win some tough football games and hang in there against the top tier of the NFL ...(mostly).   Now total team suckage..yeah .. but I don't see that happening.
