It's the future vs. questions surrounding the future on "Monday Night Football" this week.
The Saints have had an up-and-down season but are coming off a high with their a Week 8 shutout win over the Raiders. First-round pick Chris Olave was without a touchdown reception in the matchup, but the receiver is still putting together a Rookie of the Year-type campaign, with 37 receptions and 547 receiving yards at the halfway mark of the 2022 NFL season.

Olave figures to be a big part of the Saints' future, but there's a decent amount of instability surrounding everything else: The quarterback situation is in flux, the defense has been subpar and veteran receiver Michael Thomas is out for the season with an injury.
Speaking of quarterback situations, the Ravens are dealing with one of the more intriguing ones of the season. With Lamar Jackson cooling off after a hot start, questions over his contract and his future with the Ravens beyond 2022 are going to loom over the remainder of their schedule.
