For the New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers, it's story of big-time running games but teams heading in opposite directions.

Carolina (6-7) has lost five straight — despite 747 total yards and eight touchdowns from running back Christian McCaffrey during that span — and is in dire need of a win to keep its slim playoff hopes alive . Saints running back Alvin Kamara and backfield mate Mark Ingram have New Orleans (11-2) out in front in the NFC and looking to stay a step ahead of the Los Angeles Rams in the battle for the top seed and home-field advantage in the playoffs.



Here's a rundown of how to watch or follow the game, plus expert predictions and key storylines.

BREAKING DOWN THE MATCHUPS

When the Saints pass | Advantage: Saints

New Orleans should get back on track this week against a Carolina defense that ranks 20th against the pass.

When the Saints run | Advantage: Saints

Carolina has been solid against the run this year, but the Saints have a potent attack that should get what it wants.

When the Panthers pass | Advantage: Saints

New Orleans has been stellar against the pass in recent weeks, and Carolina is struggling in the same area.

When the Panthers run | Advantage: Panthers

New Orleans has stopped just about everyone this year, but Christian McCaffrey is a different type of back and could cause problems.

Special teams | Advantage: Saints

Having a trusted punter and kicker is rare in today’s NFL. New Orleans has both.
