    Lessons learned: How the Raiders kept the Saints guessing with star TE Brock Bowers. Johnson: Bowers made his season debut against the Saints, and his Raiders debut under Klint Kubiak. More than two-thirds of his routes against New Orleans came lined up at WR or in the slot. He caught six passes for 81 yards as the outside receiver. Later: his longest catch came with McKinstry in press. Other than that play, Johnson said Kool-Aid did well one-on-one against him.

    Five things to know about the New Orleans Saints for Tuesday, September 29. Next is the Falcons on Monday night. Shough’s four touchdown passes against the Raiders were a career high.

    On a chart calling Shough elite to the right and abysmal to the left: “Pretty distorted by one game where there were big plays to the right.” EPA splits he posted: Detroit −0.42 left / +0.80 right; Baltimore +0.27 left / +0.37 right; Las Vegas +0.26 left / +0.11 right. He says last year is a small sample too: four picks to the left, more deep completions to the right, and on 10–19 yard throws to the left he was 18-for-36 for 285 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT, +0.508 EPA per attempt.

    New Orleans Saints extract good parts from Sunday’s loss, turn page after emotional outing. Moore said Etienne will miss time with a hamstring. Granderson (ankle), Jennings (knee), and Werner (stinger) will be updated later this week. Not a Week 4 injury report.

  8. Sep 28 · 4:27pJeff Duncan / NOLA.comlisted Sep 28 · 4:27p

    On the No. 16 rushing offense: “It’s aided greatly by Shough’s 67 rushing yards and team-leading 4.8-yards-per-carry average.”
