NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Saints’ sizeable investment in Derek Carr is looking more like a liability lately.

New Orleans has struggled to finish promising drives in the end zone — something that likely needs to change if the Saints (5-6) are to keep up with the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions (8-3) in the Superdome on Sunday.

“It’s something that we’re working on,” Carr said this week. “Everyone wants an answer, or has an answer for us, but we’re going to keep working on it here.”

“It hasn’t been what we want it to be up to this point,” Carr added, “but we still have time.”

Even with their losing record, the Saints are tied for first place in the anemic NFC South with Atlanta (5-6).

Reeling in Carr in free agency was New Orleans’ top priority last offseason. Saints coach Dennis Allen was the Raiders’ coach when that franchise drafted Carr, only to get fired during the QB’s rookie season. ...

Who Dat Nation boos Derek Carr coming back on the field

New Orleans Saints fans have completely turned on Derek Carr. This is evidenced by the fan base’s reaction to Carr coming back on the field after a snap with Taysom Hill running for positive yardage early against the Detroit Lions, which followed Carr’s ugly interception on the opening drive.

Fans have been upset with Carr for weeks, but this feels like a season-low. The team struggled to move the ball early and ended the first quarter having been outgained by 148 yards for Detroit to 33 for New Orleans. Deeper than just one game, the fans’ reaction is indicative of this season’s...

Andrus Peat probable to return vs. Lions with hand injury

New Orleans Saints left tackle Andrus Peat has went back to the locker room with what the team announced was a hand injury. Peat has dealt with injuries earlier in the season that led to him missing some time, but he’s played every snap in the last five games after taking over from Trevor Penning at left tackle.

And it was Landon Young who replaced him at left tackle, despite typically being a right tackle in the NFL. Young hasn’t played much this year. Penning remains on the bench despite being the starting left tackle and their 2022 first-round draft pick. Saints head coach Dennis Allen...

The Saints take on the Lions, looking to avoid further embarrassment, as the season continues to crater under their feet. Despite this, the Saints remain at near the top of the abysmal NFC South with Atlanta. Insurmountable injuries paired with poor coaching and morale are conspiring to lead the Saints to a bad loss against a top-4 NFC team in the Lions. Do the Saints have any chance in this game whatsoever? Well, stranger things have happened.

Kickoff:

Sunday, December 3rd - 10:00am PST / 12:00pm CST / 1:00pm EST

Location:

Caesars Superdome - New Orleans, Louisiana

Blake Grupe will kick for the Saints in Week 13 vs. Lions

Blake Grupe will kick for the New Orleans Saints in Week 13 against the Detroit Lions. The rookie kicker has been dealing with a groin muscle injury, but he’s active — despite the team having signed a backup for him in veteran kicker Austin Seiebert earlier this week.

So he’ll have an opportunity to prove the job is his and his alone. Grupe has experienced some ups and downs this season but he scored all 15 points the Saints put on the board a week ago with five field goals in Atlanta. Saints head coach Dennis Allen has practiced a lot of patience with him, and the team clearly believes...

Coming into the New Orleans Saints versus Detroit Lions Week 13 showdown, New Orleans had 9 players either limited or a DNP in practice at some point this week. Andrus Peat was also on the injury list with a shoulder injury despite being a full participant everyday. They already ruled out four players prior the game, with Marcus Maye, Kendre Miller, Rashid Shaheed and Pete Werner all being unavailable.

Cameron Jordan was among the four other players who were listed as questionable. Jordan was a game time decision, but he’ll play — and so will Blake Grupe.

Cameron Jordan is active for Week 13's game against the Detroit Lions

Cameron Jordan will be active for the New Orleans Saints game against the Detroit Lions despite not practicing at all this week with an ankle injury. It came down to the wire with Jordan being a true game time decision. The Saints are already thin at defensive end, so it’ll be interesting to see if Jordan plays in a limited capacity due to injury.

The durable Saints defensive end is a true NFL ironman. In his 13-year career, Jordan has only missed two games. Both came in the last two years with him missing a game due to COVID in 2021 and a fractured orbital bone in 2022.

The New Orleans Saints activated veteran tight end Jimmy Graham for Sunday’s kickoff, the first game he’ll appear in since Week 7’s loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Can he make an impact against the Detroit Lions?

Graham returned to New Orleans with much fanfare at the start of training camp, but the vision of his reunion hasn’t lived up to the reality. Graham logged more snaps as a run blocker (73) than as a route-runner (61) through his first seven games back in black and gold.

And his role diminished further once Juwan Johnson returned from a calf injury early this season. Graham...

Today, the New Orleans Saints will take on the Detroit Lions in a must win game for the Saints. After dropping a crucial game to the Atlanta Falcons last week, the Saints have found themselves in a hole that they must quickly dig themselves out of. Although the Detroit Lions will be no easy task, the Saints must find a way or else they will find themselves at risk of losing the NFC South and missing the playoffs entirely.

As hard of a task that this may be, winning here is not impossible. If the Saints wish to leave the home crowd happy with a win, the defense must continue to make a...
