Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons fell to 1-3 by losing to the New England Patriots, and now have some other issues. Left tackle Sam Baker has a knee injury that happened in the second quarter and could miss Monday night's tilt against the New York Jets.
NFC South injuries, Week 4: Sam Baker, Mark Barron go down
The Saints are rolling, while the Bucs and Falcons are struggling with injuries and records.
Brad Mills-US PRESSWIRE
Linebacker Akeem Dent injured his ankle versus New England but returned to play. It would be a surprise if he does not play this week. After playing the Jets, Atlanta has a bye week for some bumps and bruises to heal.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers suffered not only a fourth straight loss but also some injuries against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Safety Mark Barron missed the second half with a hamstring injury and has an uncertain status for Week 5 versus the Philadelphia Eagles. Wide receiver Tom Crabtree also sustained a high ankle sprain.
The New Orleans Saints not only won, but walked away virtually injury-free. However, New Orleans still is waiting for Roman Harper and Mark Ingram to return from previous ailments.
