Rookie Marshon Lattimore is expected to start in today’s game per sources. He’ll still go through on field tests with trainers during pregame. #saints #panthers

I hope he's ready to go. Really glad to hear this just hoping they are not rushing him back!

A one-legged Lattimore Can’t be worse than a two-legged Harris

I doubt he's absolutely 100% but this is a gigantic game. Even if he's 80% he has to give it a go unless they really think there's a risk to injure it worse.

Agree w it only if he is for sure good. If not let him sit.... Panthers WR suck anyway. We need him next week.

May be both true, but it seems like Panther games in the dome are almost always shootouts.

You’re prob right. Just would rather not risk it if he isn’t super good to go. If he reinjures and misses the Falcons game we’re at serious risk of losing the division.

But they must think he’s good. So let’s see I.

Let's just hope we crush them and he can sit out the last quarter or two

Always get an uneasy feeling with Carolina. Never know if we'll get cry baby cam or mvp cam. i'm hoping for the former.

I'm cool with this as long as they pull him at the first sign of a retweak. Fingers crossed that doesn't happen though.

I'm actually confident, without Olsen, that we'd be fine without him.

Crawley, Moore, and PJ if he plays are good enough to handle Funchess and whoever else they might have. Stick Vaccaro on Dickson and call it a day.

Just have to keep Cam in the pocket like last time and don't let McCaffrey beat us and we'll be good.

Pretty sure they're down both Olsen and that rookie WR..can't remember his name. So Funchess and Shepard will be the main guys. McCaffery scares me a little just because our LBs are not great in coverage.

Anzalone was beneficial last game because he could match up with him better speed wise than our other LBs. Robertson and Vaccaro may get the job done though.

He's the only one (aside from Cam escaping the pocket) that scares me on that offense today.

Edit:
And yes Curtis is out for the season, not that he was doing anything.

Most definitely...especially since they have to turn right around and play the Falcons on Thursday.

On the injury front for them, Cam is dealing with shoulder/thumb issues on his throwing arm/hand, McCaffrey has shoulder issues, and Funchess has an issue with his toe.

LBs Davis (Hamstring) and Thompson (foot) are also questionable, as well as C Kalil (neck).

Stewart is averaging 3.2 ypc this year, and McCaffrey 3.5 ypc.

The key to the whole thing is keeping Cam in the god damn pocket. Do that and we win.

I would be happy if we just used him on 3rd downs. Limits his exposure, but we have him for the big situations.
