Injury Report

T, Terron Armstead (elbow), out

C, Erik McCoy (calf), out

Players to watch

  • LB2, whether it’s Baun or Werner they gotta stop Barkley and the RPO’s cause they struggled against Carolina 
  • James Hurst, he’s in for Terron and the Giants defense isn’t bad. How does he perform overall
  • Alvin Kamara, does Sean Payton keep in involved in the game plan like last week 
  • Marquez Callaway, can he get more involved than last week. Last week was a good start
  • C, whether Ruiz or Clapp starts at center it’s important to keep an eye on whoever starts as thats been a weak point of the team this year

Things to keep an eye on

  • Can the Saints put constant pressure on Jones and not let him scramble 
  • How does LB2 perform against a running back like Barkley
  • How involved does Marquez Callaway get in the offense
  • Does Sean Payton heavily favor the run in his offense again
  • Winston’s decision making 
  • With the Giants missing Slayton and Shepard do the Saints blitz more often 
  • What coverage does the defense run with the Giants being short handed, I would expect man coverage
  • Does Sean Payton get more aggressive with his play calling this week
