SAINTS 28 PANTHERS 10 F...WHO DAT rolls into Charlotte playing their game and now the dreaded NFC South looks to be all SAINTS in the 2nd half of the 16-Game Trek !..NFL Week 9 "Thursday Night Football" in "A QB Driven League" as the SAINTS move to a division leading 4-4! #NOvsCAR #GeauxSaints #PantherPride #NFLWk9TNF

A game that didn't see anyone get on the scoreboard until the 2nd frame the New Orleans Saints come out victorious a they took full reigns of the below-average NFC south. The Saints led 14-0 at the break and 21-7 after three and never looked back as Ron Rivera Panthers squad is reeling.

The Saints get another peak performance from former Heisman Winner RB Mark Ingram with 100 yards on thirty carries as he is in a contract year having his biggest year and that's how it works for most.

Saints QB Drew Brees threw for 297 yards on 24 for 34 with a INT as it didn't start well for Brees or that Saints Offense in the first frame. TE "Big Red of NOLA" Jimmy Graham caught seven pigs for 83 yards and a TD.

Panthers QB Cam Newton had another down-trodden performance throwing for just 151 yards on 10 for 28 and an INT. Cam and Panthers running backs Jonathan Stewart and DeAngelo Williams combined for 23 carries and 109 yards and a TD. The Panthers vertical passing game is non-existent and has been since that OT tie with the Bengals.

New Orleans moves atop the NFC south at 4-4 with the Panthers falling to 3-5-1.
