TEAMS: New Orleans Saints
New Orleans wide receiver Lance Moore has missed the past two days of practice because of a hamstring injury and his status is up in the air for Sunday night's game against San Diego. The Saints already are thin at the position with Marques Colston, Devery Henderson, Courtney Roby and Joseph Morgan as their only healthy receivers. Moore has 19 receptions for 287 yards and two touchdowns this season and shares the team lead in catches with Colston. "It's a case where guys are going to have to step up and do it," interim coach Aaron Kromer told The Times-Picuyne. "We have to adjust what we're doing and fill guys in when we can. It's hard to replace Lance Moore." The Saints reportedly worked out several receivers this week.

Saints interim Head Coach Aaron Kromer: “We’re not the same team”

For Drew Brees & His Saints It’s THE WRONG KIND OF SPIRAL
Written By,Clifford Santa Monica
True, the Saints are an extremely disappointing oh-and-four to start the season. But the 1975 Baltimore Colts started one-and-four as I recall, yet still made it to the AFC Title game where they eventually got stomped by the Steelers 40-14, I think. But their poor start was probably more daunting both because the talent on each side of the ball during...

Saints Nation: Was Losing Carl Nicks the Reason for Offense Struggling?
I was perusing the PFF grades through the first four weeks of the season today and I came across some interesting numbers. Of all the guards in the NFL, Jahri Evans is currently ranked 5th, Ben Grubbs is currently 8th and Carl Nicks is currently ranked 16th. All things being equal, would I prefer to have kept Nicks? Of course. But his loss, at least so far, isn't as pronounced...

TE Graham says Gates' success paved way for him
Pro Bowl tight end Jimmy Graham wonders if he would even be in the NFL if not for the success Drew Brees had with Antonio Gates in San Diego more than a half decade ago.

Brees says Gates was ''an experiment'' when he joined the...

Saints Nation: Scouting the Chargers
The Saints are 0-4 and the only thing we have to really root for at this point is Brees getting the consecutive games with a passing touchdown record. He's currently tied with Johnny Unitas and one touchdown pass in this game will give him what he needs to eclipse it. So who will be the man to catch that touchdown pass? I'm going with Jimmy Graham. Of course while the Saints...
