Erik McCoy is probably a few weeks away from returning so, I hope the Saints elevate Austin Reiter from the PS & start him at center.
Move Ruiz back to guard. |

Sounds like a plan IF they really think he'll be an upgrade over Ruiz and/or moving Ruiz back to G will improve the line regardless of who plays center.

Ruiz wasn't great last week but the Center position is a difficult position to play. I'm fairly certain that the Saints are better off with him there than anybody not named McCoy.

Injuries. Coaches out. Being away from home living,, training,, and traveling. Coming off an emotional,, almost perfect game against the Packers.. It was just too much.. Plus, the Panthers are legit. This week, against another tough defense, will be more of an indicator of the unit and the team as a whole. I expect a strong bounce back.
