The Saints are coming off a second consecutive win for the first time this season and will be looking to make it three in a row as they try to end the season with momentum.

Let’s start the breakdown for the New Orleans Saints’ Sunday matchup against the New York Jets!

OT Kelvin Banks

For most of the season, Banks has been extremely talented, and against the Panthers, it continued, though there were some hiccups. Penalties remain an issue, and the rookie was beaten at times. Still, he had dominant reps. In week 16, against the Jets, he can dominate all day.


QB Tyler Shough
