This will be a tough game for Lattimore to miss IF, in fact, he is more injured than what's being reported from the media.

This speaks to something Boston pointed out recently. Consistency in playing together as a unit is key to the success of an offensive line.

From the article linked above:

Is the Saints’ O-Line finally ascending?

I think it is starting to trend in the right direction. Individual poor performances have overshadowed their play. Ryan Ramcyzk has been great, and Cesar Ruiz has pieced together some really good games. James Hurst and Andrus Peat have had their downs but have been really solid as of late. Erik McCoy had a rough game against Seattle but has been solid as well. The communication aspect of the unit was a big reason of their failures early in the year.
