What You Missed: Thursday, November 6th

Saints LB Demario Davis, DE Cam Jordan and all three coordinators spoke to the media Thursday. Here's what you missed: Davis: - The team's three pillars: tough, together and joy - The defense is creating a takeaway culture by rewarding players with shirts for each takeaway - What stands out about Panthers RB Rico Dowdle and the Panthers' offense Jordan: - The effort remaining high across the defense - Morale in the locker room is higher now than it was at this time a year ago (Former HC Dennis Allen was let go after falling to 2-7 at Carolina. The Saints enter this season's Panthers game at 1-8). OC Doug Nussmeier: - WR Devaughn Vele will take on a larger role following the Rashid Shaheed trade - Thoughts on Tyler Shough's first start - The O-Line's effort stands out this season DC Brandon Staley: - What the defense is looking for to establish an identity and culture - Bryan Bresee's ability to rush the passer from the interior makes him unique - Leadership can be developed, but comes naturally to some players -Watching offensive tape offers more insight for designing a defense than watching other defenses ST Coordinator Phil Galiano - Process of finding roles on special teams for new players - Justin Reid's kick blocking abilities
