That's the question New Orleans Saints fans are asking themselves after their team dropped a sixth consecutive game on Sunday.
The Black and Gold sit at 2-6, but their best chance to break the losing streak comes in Week 9. A trip to Carolina to face the Panthers could be exactly what the doctor ordered for Dennis Allen and Co. Another week will also give the Saints a chance to get healthier.
There is hope Derek Carr could be back under center for this divisional duel. How do oddsmakers see the Week 9 contest playing out from Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina?

New Orleans holds a slight advantage in the series, 32-28, and it hopes to grow that lead in Week 9. The Saints have won seven of the last 10 matchups, including the last three. A win in Carolina would see the Black and Gold complete a season sweep of the Panthers.
New Orleans won the Week 1 matchup convincingly, 47-10. Here are the odds for the matchup courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook: New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers Time/TV: Sunday, Nov. 3 at noon CT (CBS) Spread (via FanDuel Sportsbook): Saints -7 Total: 44.
5 Moneyline: Saints -335, Panthers +270 New Orleans opens up as a shocking touchdown favorite on the road. It's a historic spread as the owners of the NFL's longest losing streak, the Saints, are favored by such a large margin. To say this isn't a regular occurrence would be an understatement.
Oddsmakers are putting a lot of stock in the Week 1 meeting, and also showing the public how they feel about Carolina. The total is set at 44.5.
The line is almost solely dependent on Carr's status. New Orleans scored 40 points against the Panthers with the veteran under center to open the season. If he's ruled out, expect this line to plummet as it'd feature two of the league's most inept offenses.
If Carr does return, an offensive onslaught is on the cards and New Orleans could hit the over by itself again. Kickoff is slated for noon CT on Sunday, Nov. 3.
CBS will carry the regional broadcast with the commentary team to be determined..
