The New Orleans Saints made just two adjustments to the injury report for this week’s game with the Atlanta Falcons.

Ever since Dennis Allen was fired earlier this week, the Saints have talked about the difference they’ve seen in practice.

After a brutal early-season injury, Erik McCoy returned to practice on Wednesday in hopes that he will soon return to the field.

For Week 10, the New Orleans Saints (2-7) are back home this week and will face their biggest rival, the Atlanta Falcons (6-3) in the Caesars Superdome.

So, let’s take a look at some of the Canal Street Chronicles staff’s predictions for this week’s matchup between the Saints and Falcons.

NEW ORLEANS — Darren Rizzi says it is his goal to become an NFL head coach. He's now got eight games to show what he can do as the Saints interim coach. Injuries and a roster that had no depth, play a role in Dennis Allen getting fired and Rizzi has to battle through the same issues.

His team could get a little healthier for the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Rizzi was named interim head coach on Monday after the Saints fired Allen following the team's seven-game losing streak.

The Saints started practicing under Rizzi on Wednesday.

The New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons finished up their second practices on Thursday ahead of their NFC South matchup. The Saints opened the 21-day practice window for center Erik McCoy, who hasn't played since week three. Safety Will Harris’s window was also opened on Wednesday as he was limited and has been upgraded to full on Thursday.

The Falcons only made one change to Thursday’s injury report which was upgrading linebacker Matthew Judon from DNP to a full participant as he missed Wednesday with an illness.

This could be big. The New Orleans Saints haven’t won a game since Pro Bowl center Erik McCoy got hurt back in Week 3, which put him on injured reserve after undergoing groin muscle surgery. But their most important offensive starter returned to practice on Thursday, at least on a limited basis.

It’s still probably too soon for McCoy to get back into a game; his initial timeline had him returning to the lineup after the bye week. There’s a chance he could return sooner, and opening his 21-day practice window may indicate he’ll be back sooner rather than later.

There were two big changes to the New Orleans Saints injury report ahead of Week 10’s game with the Atlanta Falcons. Two starters on injured reserve returned to practice, one of them receiving an upgrade to full reps — safety Will Harris (hamstring). Another, center Erik McCoy (groin), practiced on a limited basis. McCoy’s return is likely a week away or more but that’s a big step in the right direction.

Other than that, it’s more of the same. Wide receivers Chris Olave (concussion) and Cedrick Wilson Jr. (shoulder) still didn’t participate. Neither did cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry...

Safety Will Harris, who has spent the last four games on injured reserve with a hamstring injury, was a full participant in Thursday's New Orleans Saints practice.

When Alvin Kamara got on the bus following last week's loss to the Carolina Panthers, he had a message waiting for him from Mark Ingram.
