Panthers’ growth turns this matchup into something Saints fans didn’t see coming

This Sunday, the New Orleans Saints travel east, visiting the Carolina Panthers. In a nearly 180 degree move, it might not be the normal matchup between the two that the Who Dat Nation is used to.

In years past, the Saints have been the team viewed higher. However now, the script has been flipped. New Orleans is in line for a top-two draft pick, and Carolina is in line for its first playoff appearance in eight years. To make matters worse, the Saints have lost three of the last four games in Carolina.

Saints head coach Kellen Moore acknowledged the Panthers rushing attack, saying they've done a nice job this season and have won some games because of it after practice on Wednesday.
