New Orleans Saints vs Carolina Panthers Preview

The playoff implications continue here with the Saints heading to Carolina to face the Panthers.

The Packers own the tie-breaker over the Saints for the first seed, but New Orleans can still claim a first-round bye with a win, a Green Bay loss and Seattle win.

Obviously all of that is easier said than done, especially against a Panthers team that has really found its stride in recent weeks.

Carolina nearly pulled off a comeback win against Green Bay a fortnight ago before they went on to defeat Washington last week on the road.

The Panthers’ defence has largely been responsible for this late season purple patch, and it wouldn’t be surprising if they make life difficult for the half-strength Drew Brees.

Carolina has also proven difficult to run the ball against this year, so the Saints won’t be able to rely solely on Alvin Kamara to carry the load.

This game definitely looks like one that could throw a spanner in the works, so back the Panthers to keep it close.
