Next week will be a pivotal one for the New Orleans Saints franchise.

By Kyle T. Mosely - Saints News Network | SI

"We've gotten it right before," New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis told a reporter in his year-end media session. To bring clarity, that was nearly two decades ago when the franchise hired a confident and youthful Sean Payton. Indeed, he did not refer to Dennis Allen, although he stated, "I don't regret" his hiring.

Saints fans don't want regrets, either. Most are watching as the front offices of the Patriots, Bears, Jets, Jaguars, Raiders, and Cowboys were decisive in terms of hiring a new head coach.

Tonight, New Orleans is the last franchise standing without a new head coach.

Mike Vrabel. Ben Johnson. Aaron Glenn. Liam Coen. Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer went through a battery of interviews, and respective team executives were decisive in their hiring. ...

The Dallas Cowboys announced they hired Brian Schottenheimer as their head coach late Friday evening, meaning the New Orleans Saints are now the only team that remains looking for a head coach. They ended up playing the long game, and chose to wait out the other teams to get their choice of the remaining candidates. While this is a decision that could go either way, many of the candidates they did interview still remain which is a somewhat good sign.

The other six teams and their head coaching hires are as follows:

One positive is Liam Coen moving on from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as...

The New Orleans Saints have gotten past the snowy weather and are back to interviewing some head coach candidates announced they have completed their second interview with Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver.

B/R names Saints the worst offseason landing spot for their own former QB

The New Orleans Saints quarterback situation is all of a sudden up in the air with speculation on a Derek Carr trade starting to heat up. If that happens, the Saints would likely be in the market for a new veteran to guide their younger passers on the roster.

Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox recently suggested they avoid a reunion with a former quarterback, as they were named the worst landing spot for Andy Dalton this offseason. Here is what Knox had to say about his reasoning:

For reference, the best landing spot was with the Tennessee Titans. That is a spot that he could get a...

The New Orleans Saints lost their top head coach candidate, Aaron Glenn, to the New York Jets, but they aren’t at risk of losing any others on their list. They’ll have their pick of Joe Brady, Mike McCarthy, Mike Kafka, Anthony Weaver and Darren Rizzi.

The dominos were expected to fall quickly after Glenn and Ben Johnson were free to sign, and that’s exactly what happened.

Johnson went to the Chicago Bears, and the offensive coaches started coming off the board. The Las Vegas Raiders are rolling with Pete Carroll, and the Jacksonville Jaguars’ wild coaching search is ending with Liam...

Let’s look at a three-round mock draft for the New Orleans Saints heading into Conference Championships week.

Now that the Jacksonville Jaguars have hired Liam Coen, the Saints look to be a top option remaining in the coaching cycle.

After Winter Storm Enzo threw wrenches into the coaching search for the Black and Gold, New Orleans is trying to get back in the game.

Two former Saints in the running for Defensive Player of the Year

Zack Baun and Trey Hendrickson making first-team All Pro was a great reminder of the talent the New Orleans Saints let walk out of the building. As if that wasn’t enough, both men are also finalists for Defensive Player of the Year.

In a season, where there wasn’t a defensive player, or players, who clearly stood over the rest of the pack, this award seems up in the air.

Baun winning the award feels like a long shot due to his position. He was great in his first year with the Philadelphia Eagles, but Luke Kuechly was the last linebacker to win this award over a decade ago.

Besson’s Saints three-round mock draft

One of the best times of football season has arrived - mock draft season! The idea of scouting and predicting which players a team will draft has always been one of my favorite parts of the season. During my 2024 mock draft 1.0, I stated how in love I was with Oregon State’s Taliese Fuaga, and the rookie tackle was later selected by the New Orleans Saints and performed greatly. So maybe, just maybe, we can go two for two on first-round predictions.

For my mock drafts, I use multiple mock draft simulators to help simulate how other teams may draft on the big night. These simulators are...

ESPN writer won't rule out a Derek Carr trade this offseason

Derek Carr is not the quarterback of the future for the New Orleans Saints. He was brought in by Dennis Allen to help elevate the Saints. That didn’t happen and it would be far from surprising to see the Saints move on from Carr soon. ESPN’s Giants beat reporter Jordan Raanan wouldn’t rule out a divorce this offseason.

Raanan sees the New York Giants as a team that should inquire about Carr due to an obvious need an unfavorable draft position. Typically the third overall pick would be great, but the Tennessee Titans and Cleveland Browns could pick Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders first and...

Former Buccaneers OC Liam Coen is set to be named the next Jaguars head coach

Throughout the coaching cycle, Liam Coen was one of the Jacksonville Jaguars’ top choices for head coach. Yesterday, after their second meeting, it was announced that the Coen would return to Tampa Bay and become the highest-paid coordinator in the league. Many people believed that Jacksonville would miss out on their top targets due to general manager Trent Baalke still being in charge. This was the main reason why Coen was headed back to Tampa Bay. After the news of Coen’s return broke, the Jaguars announced they would be moving on from GM Trent Baalke. This caused a shift, and now, per...
