Monday’s NFL: New Orleans Saints’ D puts clamps on Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers
Associated Press Published 12:49 AM EST Dec 18, 2018 Charlotte, N.C. — New Orleans put the clamps on Cam Newton, and the Saints beat the Carolina Panthers 12-9 on Monday night to take a big step toward locking up home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs. The Saints’ defense, which has been among the best in the league the last six weeks, held the former MVP to 131 yards passing, sacked him four times and forced two turnovers on a night when Drew Brees and the offense couldn’t get much going. Alvin Kamara had 103 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown, and Brees had 203 yards passing for the Saints (12-2), who took a one-game lead in the NFC over the Rams. The Saints close the season at home against Pittsburgh and Carolina; the Rams visit Arizona and host San Francisco. Carolina’s only scores came off a trick play on fourth down – a 50-yard touchdown pass from running back Christian McCaffrey to tight end Chris Manhertz – and an interception return … [Read more...] about Monday’s NFL: New Orleans Saints’ D puts clamps on Cam Newton, Carolina Panthers

Carolina Panthers vs. New Orleans Saints pick: Preview, prediction, statistics to know for ‘Monday Night Football’
Everything you need to know about this clash of NFC South rivals by Jared Dubin @jadubin5 2m ago • 7 min read Prior to this season, only one team in the 17-year history of the NFC South had ever won the division in consecutive seasons. That team was the Carolina Panthers, who won the South each season from 2013 through 2015. This year, the New Orleans Saints have matched that feat, sprinting out to an 11-2 record after topping the South with an 11-5 mark a year ago. The Saints are in pole position for the No. 1 seed in the NFC, and things look especially good for them after the Rams lost to the Eagles on Monday night. They can't quite wrap things up if they defeat the Panthers on Monday, but they can come pretty close while at the same time dealing a near-death blow to Carolina's own playoff chances.New Orleans comes into the game having rebounded from a dispiriting Thursday night loss to the Cowboys by avenging their Week 1 loss to the … [Read more...] about Carolina Panthers vs. New Orleans Saints pick: Preview, prediction, statistics to know for ‘Monday Night Football’

Five games and five losses later, the playoff chances for Cam Newton and Co. are looking pretty slim.Carolina fell below .500 for the first time this season when they were defeated by the Cleveland Browns in Week 14. Without a win since the first week of November, the Panthers are a half-game out of the playoff picture.A weak NFC has kept the Panthers alive in the wild-card race. While the New Orleans Saints have easily clinched the NFC South, none of the contenders for the conference’s No.6 seed have a winning record, giving Carolina hope with just three games remaining.The Minnesota Vikings were unable to extend their lead as the NFC’s second wild-card … [Read more...] about Carolina Panthers’ Playoff Chances Aren’t High With Difficult Schedule, Cam Newton’s Shoulder Injury
