Featured Discussion Saints @ Raiders Game Day Thread

[SmashMouth]

The New Orleans Saints will square off with the Las Vegas Raiders in their first road game of the 2020 NFL season on Monday Night Football.

It will be the first game the Saints will play without star wide receiver Michael Thomas, who is out with a high ankle injury he suffered late in the fourth quarter of last week's season-opening win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Meanwhile, the Saints defense will have their hands full containing Raiders running back Josh Jacob to continue their 44-game streak of holding opposing running backs to less than 100 yards.

The game will also serve as a homecoming, of sorts, for Saints tight end Jared Cook and running back Latavius Murray, who both played for the Raiders when they were in Oakland.
