The Saints are back in action this week against Carolina. But before they play, we run through some of the issues the Saints need to fix on both sides of the ball, discuss Teddy Bridgewater and the decision to move on from him and discuss some of the things the Panthers are doing well offensively. […]
Marcus Davenport took a little while to get here. There were setbacks and frustration and false hope. But now that Davenport is here, he’s here, and hope is real — for now. The Saints pass rusher needs to stay healthy and produce up to his potential, but there is no doubt he shined a light into […]
Things could be worse. As uneven as things seemed during the first five weeks of the season, New Orleans pieced together a winning record, is getting its best player back from injury and could now easily go on a run. Still, there is much to solve if the Saints are to meet their potential. […]
New Orleans has a lot of little issues to sort out during the bye. One of those issues is hugely significant. This team’s inability to stop explosive plays has already cost them, and it will cost them more in the future if a cure isn’t found while self-scouting and cleaning this up this week. To […]
Marshon Lattimore lived long enough to become a hero again. The defense was in the crosshairs on Monday. You could just picture players steaming, and death stares shooting off to the side of the screen when discussing the multiple coverage busts which, once again, were too large a part of the narrative. But Lattimore saved […]

The Saints look like the Saints. But how much of Sunday’s performance can be taken as fact and how much of it was inflated by playing the Lions? We explore these topics, discuss where Drew Brees stands, how the NFL is slipping in its fight against the coronavirus, how the defense looks and much more. […]
The Saints are here. The team didn’t show up right away this year. The first few weeks of the season were defined by awkwardness and a lack of chemistry, much like the early moments of a mixer before everyone settles in. Some people were going for hugs while others were looking for handshakes. On Sunday, […]
DETROIT – Alvin Kamara has thoughts and opinions about how Drew Brees is playing, but first, he wants others to stop sharing their opinions. He might have gotten the ingredients to make his wish come true with how well the quarterback played during Sunday’s 35-29 over the Detroit Lions. “A game like this will shut […]
