If you are the New Orleans Saints, the hits just keep coming.

Having a 2-5 record is bad enough. But recently, Saints head coach Dennis Allen revealed that the Saints' struggles won't get any easier. On Friday, Allen said wide receivers Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry will miss this week's matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders. However, he ended his statement by indicating the duo may return soon enough.

Dennis Allen rules out Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry against the Raiders, says he doesn't have a timetable for their return but he is optimistic they'll play again this season.

Thomas will have missed 5 games, Landry 4. Why weren't either of them sent to injured reserve?

This is the latest domino to fall in a season where nothing is going right for New Orleans. There is a slight quarterback controversy. The defense has played decently but hasn't gotten enough stops in critical moments.

Both the Raiders and the Saints are desperate for wins heading into Sunday. However, it won't be easy. The Saints will have to find a way to win without two of their key receivers, yet again.
