The New Orleans Saints face the Carolina Panthers in a huge NFC South showdown in the Superdome. Both teams, along with Tampa, are jockeying for position atop the competitive NFC South. With the small room for error in the division, every win, and every loss, is magnified. The Saints now come out of their bye week with an opportunity to take hold of their place atop the division, but could see that all unravel if they fail to seize the opportunity to keep Carolina off their tails.
The fight for the NFC South title began in Week 1 and has only grown more fierce since then.
