The Carolina Panthers return home to face their division rival New Orleans Saints on Sunday afternoon. The Saints are coming off a loss in their NFC South opener against Tampa Bay. While the Panthers dropped their ninth straight contest, dating back to last season, losing to the Giants last Sunday. The pressure is on both teams to keep pace with Tampa, especially for Carolina as head coach Matt Rhule has been hearing calls for his job all week. Can the Panthers win at home for the first time in over a calendar year?

Julian Council and Locked On Saints host Ross Jackson break down the top storylines, and key matchups, and provide their predictions for Sunday's NFC South showdown.
