The Saints have not run the ball particularly well so far this season. One reason is they haven't tried that hard to run the ball.Here's a chance to try and do some real hand offs, instead of those long hand offs -- the short passes. Drew Brees will likely wear a knee brace and the team does not want to expose him to too many hits.
New Orleans also wants to get its rookie running back Chris Ivory involved and see what he has to offer. No better chance than Sunday against the 0-3 Panthers who cannot fight back on offense.
Who: Carolina (0-3) at New Orleans (2-1)
Where: Louisiana Superdome; New Orleans
When: Sunday at 1 p.m. ET
TV Coverage: FOX
Players to Watch: Carolina middle linebacker Dan Connor against Saints fullback Heath Evans. It should be Evans leading into the hole for Ivory.
Also watch Jon Beason, the Carolina linebacker, and possible position switches for the Panthers in the wake of injuries.
