The Saints can rebound in Week 14, but there's plenty of questions in front of them.

By John Hendrix - Saints News Network | SI

After a disappointing outcome against the Rams, the Saints (4-8) are back to the drawing board for Week 14. They're clinging to a shot at the NFC South, but their outlook looks grim. New Orleans will travel up to the East Coast to take on the Giants (2-10) this Sunday, as the season winds down for the black and gold. Here's a look at some of the big storylines to follow this week before the team hits the field.

Saints Storylines to Follow In Week 14:

Navigating Through Injuries

Taysom Hill's major knee injury will put him on the sideline for the rest of the season and beyond. However, it doesn't stop there. New Orleans lost their starting left guard Nick Saldiveri to a knee injury, so we'll have to see where he's at. Tyrann Mathieu exited with a shoulder injury on Sunday, but figures to return against the Giants. It'd be a good week to get Erik McCoy (groin) and Lucas Patrick (ankle) back in practice, and we'll see where they're at during the first practice on Wednesday. ...

Saints won't abandon the Taysom Hill package even without Hill

  • News source: Darrion Gray

There’s a reason they call Taysom Hill a Swiss army knife. He contributed to the New Orleans Saints offense in a variety of ways before going down with a season ending injury last week.

How do you replace someone like that? Despite not having Hill for the remainder of the season, Darren Rizzi doesn’t plan on abandoning the Taysom Hill game plan even without Taysom Hill.

The difference will be how the Saints approach that portion of the playbook. You’ll never find a replica of Hill. As Rizzi said, “I don’t know if there’s another guy in the league who can do what he does.”

New Orleans is...

Rookie report card: Grading the Saints 2024 draft class after Week 13

Tough loss for the New Orleans Saints this past Sunday where they let up multiple second-half touchdowns to fall 21-14 to the Los Angeles Rams. On the other side of things though, the team saw tremendous growth from their young guys. A couple of the team’s rookie players have seemed to really come into their own these last couple games, showing out against some of the league’s most talented players. A roller coaster of a season many will say, but it is always great to see the potential of the future.

Here are our Week 13 grades for the 2024 Saints rookie class:

Alvin Kamara set to hit an important new milestone in Week 14

  • News source: Darrion Gray

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is on pace to set a new single-season high in rushing yards against the New York Giants this Sunday. He set his previous personal-best back in 2020, when Kamara rushed for 932 yards. That was by far the best season of his career. He balanced a heavy workload and rare explosiveness, while also delivering the most touchdowns in the league (16).

The Saints haven’t been able to surround Kamara with the best pieces this season due to injuries. The offseason addition of Klint Kubiak, however, has clearly paid off. Kubiak’s new run scheme was one of...

NFL's flag-happiest referee assigned to Saints-Giants game

The New Orleans Saints and New York Giants might be seeing a lot of yellow on Sunday as their matchup got assigned the most flag-happy referee in the NFL.

Clete Blakeman was assigned the Week 14 matchup of Saints-Giants per Football Zebras. Blakeman’s crews lead the league in both penalties per game (15.3) and penalty yards per game (128.5).

Neither team will be excited to see him on the sidelines, but New York especially. In the games of theirs that they have played in with him as the referee, they are just 3-6. New Orleans doesn’t have a spectacular record, but at least it is a...

The Athletic links Saints to big-time wide receiver in 2025 mock draft

The New Orleans Saints are teetering on the brink of joining teams whose fans start to think more about mock drafts than upcoming games.

There is certainly still a future where the Saints sneak into the postseason, but a more realistic path may be one that has them drafting in the top 10. That’s the future that The Athletic’s Dane Brugler looked at in his latest mock draft.

With the No. 10 overall selection in the 2025 NFL draft, New Orleans took Arizona wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan. This is what Brugler had to say about the potential pick:

This Wednesday, December 4th, it was announced that New Orleans Saints safety Roderic Teamer was suspended for violating the NFL substance abuse policy. Teamer will be suspended for 3 weeks with no pay, and he can be reinstated in week 17 against his former team, the Las Vegas Raiders, per Tom Pelissero.

Roderic Teamer has been on the Saints practice squad for most of the season, but when elevated for games, he played primarily on special teams. New Orleans may look towards adding another safety to the practice squad in light of this news.

NFL Picks Week 14: Rizzi’s Honor

Once again, the New Orleans Saints have suffered devastating injuries, namely Taysom Hill’s season-ending knee injury, which makes it no surprise where this team stands at this point of the season. Now the walking wounded travel northeast to face the New York Giants on the road. It may be a road game for the Saints, but it is partially a home game for their interim head coach.

Saints interim head coach Darren Rizzi is returning to his native New Jersey for a homecoming of sorts. Rizzi was born and raised roughly 16 miles north of MetLife Stadium and it will certainly be his honor to win...

The New Orleans Saints travel to the Big Apple to face off with the New York Giants this Sunday afternoon. Both teams are coming off a loss and look to get back in the win column this weekend.

The Saints offense, which looked revitalized after firing Dennis Allen, went back to looking like the same unit we saw during the seven-game losing streak. Derek Carr was a pressured quite a bit and threw for 184 yards behind a 64% completion percentage. The one good thing to come out of the game was the rushing attack, which averaged 4.9 yards per carry with over 140 yards coming on the ground...
