Injury Report 

T, Terron Armstead (elbow), out

C, Erik McCoy (calf), out

Players to watch

  • CB2, if it’s Adebo, can he have a bounce back week and improve off of the Giants game? If it’s Roby, how is he used and how consistently does he win his matchups 
  • Marshon Lattimore, can he win his matchup vs Terry McLaurin
  • Cody Parkey, can he be better than Aldrick Rosas 
  • Deonte Harris, can he continue to be WR1 for probably one more game and get consistent playing time
  • Chauncey Gardner Johnson, he’s been quiet on the field this season, can he get into momentum and start to show out 

Thing to keep an eye on

  • Can the Saints get pressure on Taylor Heinicke, he’s only been sacked 4 times which is 2nd best in the league 
  • With Tony Jones out does Sean Payton get RB2 involved? Whether it’s Dwayne Washington, Devine Ozigbo, or possibly Ryquell Armstead
  • Do the Saints air the ball out more this week? Or do they stick to the game plan they’ve been having until Michael Thomas comes back
  • Can the offensive line give Winston time, Washington is 23rd in sacks with 7
  • Do the Saints play zone or man against Washington 
  • How often do the Saints blitz Taylor
