Coach Kellen Moore indicated that they will take advantage of this week to make a final decision.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>We have three days of practice and a game, so we have excellent work ahead of us.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Kellen Moore<\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nMoore explained that the competition between Tyler Shough and Spencer Rattler has been very close, and they want to maintain it until the end of the week.\n\nIt&#8217;s very, very close: numbers, experiences, repetitions, everything. Everything is very close between them. We&#8217;ll see how it all unfolds.\n\nIn the first two preseason games, Rattler completed 71.4% of his passes, with 252 yards, a touchdown and an interception, in addition to having been sacked three times. Shough, for his part, completed 70.6% of his passes, adding 231 yards, a touchdown and an interception, with four sacks.\n\nWhen asked about the deadline for making the decision, Moore joked that the Saints will play against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, September 7, so the decision will be made &#8220;hopefully before that&#8221;.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>I think they&#8217;re both making a tremendous effort, tremendous work. They&#8217;re both doing a lot of good things, so we&#8217;ll see how it goes.<\/p>\n\n<cite>Kellen Moore<\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\nMoore added that the team has not yet been notified of any decision.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>We haven&#8217;t named anyone.
