The New Orleans Saints are experiencing a significant slump after a promising start, currently on a three-game losing streak. Quarterback Derek Carr's status is uncertain due to a left oblique injury, which could lead to rookie quarterbacks Jake Haener or Spencer Rattler stepping in.

Despite strong defensive performances, the Saints' offense has struggled, particularly in their recent loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, where they were outperformed in key statistics. Coach Dennis Allen emphasizes the need for unity and improvement as they prepare for upcoming home games against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Denver Broncos.
