Regarding the Saints offensive woes lately; O-line needs to get healthy which is the main issue. Unger going down is huge, when both your C and LT - both Pro Bowlers - go down, you're in trouble. Backup LT Bushrod leaving the game makes it even more dire, Armstread can't come back soon enough. Panthers noticed it and were really keying in on the depleted left side of the line.
The other issue is no secondary receiving threat after Thomas, especially that deep threat. Ted Ginn is rumoured to be coming off the IR any week now, he really needs to come back. Positives for them is that was (most likely) their final road game of the year, being back at the Dome should really help fix things. The D is for real, led by that DL and DeMario Davis. It's not getting nearly enough attention around the league what a stout unit they've become.
