00:00New Orleans on the road to face off against Carolina. Derek Carr is back in that lineup.

00:10The sixth score has New Orleans as an 83 number and you have a bunch of people out on the

00:16defensive side of the ball. Carolina checks in at 74. Do you expect Derek Carr to be at

00:22full capacity today? Derek Carr, look, when he first got hurt with the oblique muscle,

00:29people said four to six weeks. We said that's too long. He's going to be back before. This

00:33is actually the third week and he's back. His health is fine, but even he doesn't have

00:39full confidence. He was talking about how he's not a savior, but he of course is playing

00:44today. But rust is the biggest issue on Derek Carr there, not his health. And when I look

00:51at the offensive line for Carolina, center is banged up and then also left tackle. How

00:56should that, you know, are they banged up to the fact that it's going to be a lot of

01:00pressure on Bryce Young and the rushing attack? Yeah, there will be. And you know, we said

01:06it last week that Bryce Young starting with Andy Dalton's thumb injury from the car accident

01:13was hiding behind health. We did not believe that thumb injury on Andy Dalton was significant.

01:18And sure enough, this week he's off the injury report listed as fully healthy. Yet Bryce

01:24Young is still the starter. This is like pre-trade deadline stuff. You know, can, can Carolina

01:29get anything for Bryce Young, but he should be under pressure all day today. And Carolina's

01:33defense was banged up as well.
