The New Orleans Saints trounce their division rival 47-10 in week 1.
The New Orleans Saints pulled ahead in the NFC South division race by defeating their division rival Carolina Panthers 47-10. Derek Carr and the Klint Kubiak offense get off to a hot start.
Rashid Shaheed was the star receiver of the day with 3 receptions for 73 yards receiving and a touchdown. Alvin Kamara had 83 rushing yards and a touchdown to go along with 5 receptions for 27 yards receiving.
Bryce Young had a putrid 43.3% completion percentage, 161 passing yards, and 0 touchdowns. Diontae Johnson had 2 receptions for 19 yards. There aren’t enough Bojangles biscuits to be served that will help Panther fans recover from the week 1 disappointment.
The Saints will face a big test in week 2 traveling to face the Dallas Cowboys while the Panthers nightmare will continue in Charlotte versus the Los Angeles Chargers.
