Saints' Week 18 lineup is looking rough. Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave, Bryan Bresee, and Nathan Shepherd will not play. A loss locks up the 8th pick, so a convenient time to shut some guys down.

Red: Injured reserve
Green: Rookie
Gold: Aged 30+

An injury-plagued New Orleans Saints offensive line was just as beaten up as it looked. Just one team has used more line combinations this season.

The Falcons opened their new Mercedes-Benz Stadium to great fanfare, but they have not defended it. The Saints have a stronger win percentage there.

Shreveport has fallen. All of Louisiana but the northwest corner will get Saints-Falcons on Sunday. Instead, they'll have to watch the Giants try to not beat a Cowboys team with no shot at the playoffs. The rest of the Southeast and much of Florida will get the game, though.

The Saints reactivated backup QB Hunter Dekkers from the injury list yesterday. Allows him to sign a reserve/future contract after the season concludes. They signed TE Moliki Matavao to the 53 last week which opened a vacancy for him.

Since bulldozing two churches (Friendship Baptist, est. 1862; Mount Vernon, est. 1915) to build a frivolous new stadium just 25 years after opening the Georgia Dome, the Falcons have gone 33-39 with no playoff games. The Saints have a higher win % there (.625) than them (.458).
