Saints Rookie Bryan Bresee Looks Like a Potential Star

Mandatory Credit: Stephen Lew-USA TODAY

By Bob Rose | Saints News Network | SI

Bresee, who turns 22 on October 6, has made arguably the biggest impact among the new faces. He's played just under 50% of the team's defensive snaps, 124 total plays, but is already showing the traits of a consistent playmaker.

Bresee has 1.5 sacks, four QB hits, six pressures, three tackles for loss, and one pass batted down. He's had another two sacks, including a forced fumble, nullified by penalty. He currently ranks second on the team in sacks, QB hits, and stops for loss.

Over the last two games, the New Orleans pass rush has been relatively ineffective. Bresee has been the exception, recording a sack an four pressures over that span. With each game, he's been more disruptive as a run defender and a pass rusher.

At 6'5" and 305-Lbs., Bresee has impressive power. He not only holds his own against double teams, but has shown the strength to still push into opposing backfields or close off running lanes. ..

The New Orleans Saints were handed their 2nd straight loss of the season on Sunday at home against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. All aspects of this game were off, even with Derek Carr back behind center after suffering a shoulder injury last week. The Saints failed to get into the end zone once and the defense broke their streak of keeping opponents from scoring more than 20 points. New Orleans’ only points came off the foot of rookie kicker Blake Grupe, who successfully kicked 3 field goals. Head coach Dennis Allen admitted after the game that “We got our arses beat today” and is aware of...

Some New Orleans Saints fans have already shifted their focus to the 2024 NFL draft, and while we aren’t ready to pack it in and go that direction it is worth checking in on where the team could be picking. The trade deadline is rapidly approaching on Oct. 31 and it’s a good time to keep up with their assets.

The Saints have added a couple of selections from the Denver Broncos and Philadelphia Eagles through previous trades (for Sean Payton and safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson, respectively), and the latest forecasts have the Saints owning eight picks in the 2024 draft. Here’s where Tankathon...

It’s no secret that the New Orleans Saints offense came up short in Week 4’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers: just check the scoreboard. But if you want to take a deeper look under the hood, you’ll get a better idea of who came away from this game with dirty hands. There’s enough blame to go around.

Derek Carr played poorly, but so did many of those around him. It took a teamwide lack of effort to be this bad. Pro Football Focus released their player grades for everyone who took a snap during the Saints’ latest debacle. Here are their lowest-graded Saints players on offense from Week 4’s...

There weren’t many positives to write about in the wake of the New Orleans Saints’ big loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, but left tackle Trevor Penning deserves some praise. The second-year pro was a rare bright spot on offense, allowing just two pressures on 47 snaps in pass protection and dominating as a run blocker — the Saints averaged 5.3 yards per carry running behind the left side of their line but just 3.1 yards per attempt when running to the right.

Sure, Derek Carr didn’t get great use out of the time Penning bought for him. At the end of the day the offense only put 9...

The New Orleans Saints’ week 4 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers resulted in a 26-9 loss for New Orleans. The Saints looked to be out of reach pretty quickly in this game, going down 14-3 by halftime. With the offense sputtering as it has to start the season, New Orleans would only put up six more points in the game. With that, we continue our weekly series by choosing one player who broke out in the previous game, and going over why their contributions were so critical to the game.

This week we have a player in their rookie season with the Saints, who has proven to be a valuable...

No one thought until Sunday morning that there was any chance Derek Carr would be playing against the Bucs. His injured AC joint was thought to have cleared the way for Jameis Winston’s first start this season. Instead, Carr was able to participate in a limited practice on Friday and felt good enough to suite up Sunday. It is good that Carr was willing to play through pain but it was clear that he was not 100% and should not have played. The arm strength was not there and it was too risky to bring him back so soon. Carr playing at a Pro Bowl level is the only chance this team has at making...

Expectations aren’t too high for the New Orleans Saints (2-2) going into Week 5’s road game with the New England Patriots (1-3) — BetMGM Sportsbook has the Saints as 1.5-point underdogs in this one, giving the Patriots a slight homefield advantage. The over/under (40) suggests a final tally in the neighborhood of New England 20, New Orleans 19. That would be one of the highest scoring outputs we’ve seen from the Saints since Thanksgiving last year.

But the Patriots have been nearly as ineffective on offense as the Saints. Both offenses have scored just 55 points through four games (New...
