Of course this is not a one-on-one battle. Kamara is not what he once was, but he commands loads of defensive attention as a runner and pass-catcher. He leads the Saints with 564 rushing yards (averaging just 3.9 yards per attempt), is second on the team with 63 receptions and leads the team with six total touchdowns. Okereke has a team-high 119 tackles and is on pace for 156, which would surpass his career-best 151 last season with the Colts. He also has his first two NFL interceptions and career highs in forced fumbles (four), tackles for loss (nine) and passes defensed (eight). Okereke has been everything the Giants hoped he would be when they gave him a four-year deal worth $40 million in free agency.
How long does the ride last for Tommy DeVito? He has not thrown an interception in 87 consecutive passes and will be tested by a larcenous New Orleans defense. Derek Carr's first season with the Saints has not exactly been a joyride. This is a tough place to play amid the noise. DeVito's first NFL start was in a dome and that did not go well in Dallas. He has come a long way since then but will need plenty of help to keep the winning streak alive.
