- Playoff Push: Both teams desperately need this win to stay afloat in their crowded conferences. The Saints are tied for the final NFC Wild Card spot, while the Rams are a game behind and battling for the NFC West lead.
- Revenge Factor: New Orleans defeated the Rams 27-20 in Week 11, the Rams' only home loss this season. Los Angeles will be eager for revenge in front of their own crowd.
- Injury Concerns: Both teams have key players on the mend. Jameis Winston's status for the Saints is uncertain due to a back injury, while the Rams could miss Aaron Donald and Cooper Kupp. These absences could significantly impact the game's outcome.
- Offense: New Orleans boasts a balanced attack with Alvin Kamara leading the rushing attack and Michael Thomas and Chris Olave emerging as reliable targets for whoever starts at quarterback. The Rams offense relies heavily on Cooper Kupp, and his potential absence could cripple their passing game.
- Defense: The Saints' defense has been surprisingly stout this season, especially against the run. The Rams defense, though, remains one of the league's best, especially with Aaron Donald up front.
- Key Players: Alvin Kamara, Michael Thomas, Demario Davis (Saints); Matthew Stafford, Leonard Floyd, Jalen Ramsey (Rams)
- This is the fourth Thursday night meeting between the Saints and Rams since 2020.
- The Rams lead the all-time series 42-34.
- The game will be broadcast nationally on Amazon Prime Video at 8:15 PM EST.
