Saints RB Alvin Kamara has only two TDs this year and has lacked his typical explosive plays recently. But he agreed with Sean Payton that "his best football this season is ahead of him." "Oh yeah, it'll come, it'll come," said Kamara, who said he is healthier after missing time with ankle and knee injuries earlier in the year but "it's a battle every week in this league to get healthy." Kamara also said defenses aren't treating him differently and "I just gotta do my part."

But S Vonn Bell (knee), G Andrus Peat (arm) and LB Kiko Alonso (quadricep) remained out of practice.

Pete Carroll said the Seahawks will activate offensive lineman Ethan Pocic of injured reserve before Sunday's game. That will be the corresponding move when they place Rashaad Penny on IR. Pocic, a 2017 second-round pick, has made 16 starts at guard for Seattle and can also play center. He has background at tackle in college and could play there in an emergency situation. "His versatility has always been a great strength," Carroll said.

Pete Carroll said Jadeveon Clowney has been "pretty sick" with the illness that's made its way around the Seahawks' locker room, adding: "Just judging from how other guys have recovered, the couple days from this point forward, he should bounce back pretty good. But it hasn't been a great week for him at all so we need to just wait and see." Clowney was listed as limited Friday and is questionable as are Ziggy Ansah, Luke Willson and Shaquill Griffin. They'll be game-time decisions per Carroll.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara joked about some of the questions he has gotten on social media, with people wondering why he hasn't been more enthusiastic -- and whether it's because he misses Mark Ingram. “I mean that's my boy, but it's not like my football career is over now that me and Mark split up,” Kamara said with a laugh. Kamara acknowledged that it was tough for him to deal with being injured early in the year, but he's fighting to be as close to 100 percent as he can every week.

Patriots coach Bill Belichick has offered his thoughts on the Oakland Coliseum: "Pretty intense fans. It's like Halloween every Sunday there. So, yeah. I mean, it's a great environment. Baseball stadium, so it was configured that way, which you don't see that much anymore...when I was in Cleveland, we played them and they were in the [Los Angeles Memorial] Coliseum. So, when you say the Raiders, it's not always Oakland...but, yeah, the Oakland crowd was a lot more intense than the L.A. crowd."

Jacobs also said he would NOT need surgery on it. "So that's a positive note," Jacobs said.
