Saints Reaffirm Rattler as Week 8 Starter as Injuries Deepen 1-6 Slide

Kellen Moore has placed the quarterback job on a week-to-week evaluation.

Overview

New Orleans fell 26-14 to Chicago in Week 7, dropping to 1-6 with the NFC’s worst record.
Spencer Rattler threw three interceptions, lost a fumble, and was sacked four times in his worst outing of the season.
Moore confirmed Rattler will start against the Buccaneers in Week 8 while keeping the role under ongoing review.
Reports indicate season-ending injuries for Kendre Miller (torn ACL) and Erik McCoy (torn biceps), stripping the offense of a rising back and its anchor at center.
The Bears ran for 222 yards as the Saints managed just 253 total yards, with special teams adding a missed field goal and ineffective punting.
