One team that has taken the NFL by storm is the New Orleans Saints. What is the reason for New Orleans’ sudden resurgence?

Expectations are high this year for the Dallas Cowboys, and a Super Bowl victory parade is on everybody’s mind. With the first two weeks of the 2024 NFL season in the books, however, it is clear that America’s Team has work to do. Dak Prescott needs to be better, Ezekiel Elliott and the rest of […]

There is no doubt that the New Orleans Saints have been playing like Super Bowl contenders through the first two games, especially after the dominant win over the Dallas Cowboys on the road last Sunday, 44-19. The offense’s success has been off the back of quarterback Derek Carr and while people still have question marks […]

Yes, they are howling in Dallas, thanks to the New Orleans Saints running them out of their own building.

But just because they got under the Cowboys’ collective skin, the blowout win doesn’t prove the Saints are Super Bowl contenders. Let’s […]

The New Orleans Saints lit up the Dallas Cowboys during the teams’ Week Two matchup on Sunday. The win lifts the suddenly dangerous Saints to 2-0 on the season, which ties them with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the top spot in the NFC South.

The Dallas Cowboys suffered a humiliating 44-19 defeat in their 2024 home opener against the New Orleans Saints, dropping their record to 1-1. However, star linebacker Micah Parsons was quick to dismiss any notion that the defensive lapses were related to the scheme put in place by first-year defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer. Parsons immediately came […]

Drew Brees is looking forward to the New Orleans Saints this season.

After a delightful streak of days celebrating a 1-0 record, the New Orleans Saints are having a disruptive week of practice amid Hurricane Francine.

The New Orleans Saints are thriving to start off the 2024-25 NFL season.

But the opponent needs to be considered. […]

Kamara and the Saints demolished the Carolina Panthers 57-10 in Week 1. After the win, Kamara shook off any issues with his contract […]

The Panthers were the laughing stock of the NFL last season, finishing with the worst record in the NFL at 2-15. To make matters worse, they didn’t even get to make the No. 1 overall pick after trading it to move up for Bryce Young in the previous year’s draft. Unfortunately for Carolina, they picked […]

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara indicated earlier this offseason that he hoped to receive a new contract from the Saints.

The New Orleans Saints have unveiled some major changes to Caesars Superdome. It is a 50-year-old stadium that was in need of a facelift, but it now looks better than ever.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara believes the time for contract negotiations has come and gone.

The 5-foot-10, 215 lb. back explained the reasoning behind the move with Matthew Paras of The […]

While no quarterback controversy exists for the New Orleans Saints, starter Derek Carr could be under pressure this season.

The New Orleans Saints have claimed dynamic running back and former All-Pro kick returner Kene Nwangwu off waivers, bolstering their special teams with one of the NFL’s premier return specialists.

The New Orleans Saints reportedly released former 2019 first-round pick Johnathan Abram on Tuesday, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.

He unfortunately didn’t make it to the actual season with New Orleans, and it will be interesting to see […]

Puka Nacua put the league on notice last year as a rookie, and his brother, Samson Nacua, is trying to shock people as well on the New Orleans Saints.

Since arriving to the New Orleans Saints in 2017, Taysom Hill has been used in a variety of positions and situations, including at quarterback, tight end, and on special teams. And ahead of the 2024 NFL season, Saints head coach Dennis Allen is trying Taysom Hill at another position: fullback. Fullback, in many ways, is […]

Derek Carr maybe doesn’t get the respect that he deserves, even if he has the stats to back it up. Since 2016, Carr has 30 the most game-winning drives out of any quarterback with 30, but his name isn’t put on the list with some of the top at the position. Carr has been looking […]

The New Orleans Saints should feel a sense of urgency in 2024. Head coach Dennis Allen is on the hot seat, and the Saints have many older players who don’t have much time left in the NFL. This version of the New Orleans Saints needs to make a run at winning the NFC South before […]

We’re barely six months removed from Brock Purdy nearly leading the San Francisco 49ers to their first Super Bowl win since 1995, but on Sunday night during the Niners’ second preseason game of the year, Purdy must’ve felt like that Super Bowl loss was actually six years ago, not six months ago. Not surrounded by […]

But Sunday night’s preseason game brought one anyway with Kool-Aid McKinstry suffering a concerning setback against the 49ers. The rookie cornerback suffered the injury on the opening drive in […]
