### **When the Saints have the ball**
The Bears defense has generated 11 takeaways during the team's current three-game winning streak, but it won't be easy to continue that trend against a Saints offense that has committed only four turnovers this season—and never more than one in a game.
New Orleans is led by quarterback Spencer Rattler, a second-year pro who has thrown for 1,217 yards with six TDs, one interception and a 91.9 passer rating. He has also rushed for 143 yards on 26 carries. Rattler is the only NFL quarterback with more than 200 pass attempts and fewer than two interceptions.
"He's doing a good job of getting rid of the ball," said defensive coordinator Dennis Allen. "When he's able to get the ball out in rhythm and on timing, he's been highly successful. And then the second thing that he's been able to do is when it hasn't been there, he's been able to create a lot of things with his feet. His mobility is one of those factors that we're going to have to take into account."
The Saints offense ranks 29th in the NFL in points per game (18.5) and 24th in total yards, 19th rushing and 22nd passing. Running back Alvin Kamara leads New Orleans in rushing with 314 yards and one touchdown on 83 carries. Chris Olave tops Saints receivers with 39 catches for 342 yards and one TD.
New Orleans also features speedy receiver Rashid Shaheed, who has caught 26 passes for 316 yards and leads the team with two TD receptions and 12.2 yards per catch.
"\[Shaheed\] continues to get better each and every year," Allen said. "The one thing you notice about him \[is\] he's got elite speed. His speed down the field, his speed on crossing routes, how they use him on some of these jet sweeps or fly sweeps, he's continued to improve."
**Key matchup: Bears cornerbacks Tyrique Stevenson and Nahshon Wright vs. Saints receivers Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed**
Stevenson and Wright will be entrusted with containing Olave and Shaheed, a talented tandem that give the Saints offense big-play ability—as evidenced by Shaheed's 87-yard TD reception Oct. 5 in a win over the Giants.
