Week 2: Saints Visit Ravens With Kamara and Jordan Trending Toward Returns
Read the full recap →The New Orleans Saints visit the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, September 20. Baltimore opened with a 41-23 win at Indianapolis in Jesse Minter's debut, outgaining the Colts 506-251, with Lamar Jackson throwing for 324 yards and Derrick Henry running for 144 yards and three touchdowns. Zay Flowers is day-to-day after aggravating his hamstring following a 150-yard first half, and rookie Ja'Kobi Lane has a fractured wrist. New Orleans lost 31-30 in overtime at Detroit after trailing 21-0, with Tyler Shough throwing for a career-high 410 yards; coach Kellen Moore says Alvin Kamara and Cameron Jordan are progressing toward Week 2 returns, though neither is confirmed. Friday update: Flowers is listed as doubtful and Lane is on injured reserve. Saturday update: Flowers was downgraded to out, and left tackle Ronnie Stanley is questionable with a toe injury.
Baltimore's receiver depth is being tested
With Flowers uncertain and Lane out, Devontez Walker and Elijah Sarratt are next up for a passing game that otherwise has Jackson at full strength.
Shough's 410-yard game changes the Saints' outlook
New Orleans scored 30 in Detroit without Kamara, Jordyn Tyson or Jordan, and Kamara's return would give the offense its most complete look.
Henry's pace
Three touchdowns in Week 1 moved Henry to third on the all-time rushing list, behind a rebuilt interior line that held up in its first game.
Pregame AI Prediction
How the prediction did
Predicted 20-31 (Saints vs Ravens), final was 24-17. Miss, and the biggest of the week so far: Baltimore was a 75 percent High-confidence pick. Without Zay Flowers, the Ravens led 17-9 after three quarters and were outscored 15-0 in the fourth as Tyler Shough went 27 of 34 and ran in the winning score. The model leaned too hard on one dominant Week 1.
Saints
Ravens Baltimore's Week 1 was the most complete performance in the league
A 255-yard margin in total offense, a top pass rush in Trey Hendrickson, and Jackson and Henry both at peak form make this the clearest talent gap of the week.
New Orleans' defense couldn't hold a 21-point cushion the other way
The Saints allowed 31 to Detroit and now face a more explosive offense on the road in a home opener.
Shough's arm keeps the total high
New Orleans has shown it can score on anyone, which is why the projection has the Saints at 20 rather than the low teens.
The model agrees with the sportsbook favorite here at a slightly wider margin. Flowers sitting would not change the pick given how much of Baltimore's offense runs through Jackson and Henry.
