Former New Orleans Saints player Bruce Thompson has created a new clothing line, Dreamathon, and released a new Jameis Winston shirt, marking Dreamathon’s first collaboration with Winston.

A look at how the Saints have performed against backup quarterbacks, since the Seattle Seahawks will not have their starting quarterback in their upcoming game against the Saints.

While Drew Brees says that he sees promise in Jameis Winston, he also says that “only time will tell,” if Winston has a future with the Saints.

Marshon Lattimore has performed well this season, but he has tough competition...

The injury bug eventually comes for everyone, even Mr. Invincible himself in Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.

For the first time since Seattle drafted him in 2012, the Seahawks played without their beloved No. 3 under center last week. Wilson was injured the week prior against the Los Angeles Rams and is now on injured reserve, forcing Seattle to give the reins to backup quarterback Geno Smith — who started his first game since 2017 in a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

Because Wilson was placed on injured reserve, Smith will be the one to face the New Orleans...

Quarterback Jacob Eason is headed back to his old stomping grounds.

Eason played college football at the University of Washington and he’s headed back to Seattle. Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports that Eason has been claimed off of waivers by the Seahawks.

Eason was waived by the Colts on Tuesday when Indianapolis activated Sam Ehlinger from injured reserve. Eason was a fourth-round pick by Indianapolis in 2020 and didn’t play as a rookie. He went 2-of-5 for 25 yards and an interception in Week Two against the Rams in his only regular season playing time.

The Seahawks will be without...

When you want to talk football about the Saints and LSU, there’s no one better to talk to than analyst Mike Detillier of WWL Radio.

He comes on the latest installment of the Dattitude podcast to discuss all those things at length, including the coaching search at LSU and when he thinks there might be a replacement names, as well as who Mike thinks are the top candidates. He also talks about his long relationship with Coach Ed Orgeron and how he’ll fare after his days are done in Baton Rouge.

We also look at the future of the Saints – both long term and their battles coming up with the...

Saints Rushing Attack vs. Seahawks Run Defense

The New Orleans Saints (3-2) return from a bye week by traveling to face the Seattle Seahawks (2-4) on Monday Night Football.

This is the fifth road game of the year for the Saints, who technically had a home game in Week 1 that was relocated to Jacksonville because of Hurricane Ida.

The Saints have had some ups and downs offensively over the first portion of the year. QB Jameis Winston is still getting acclimated to the system, and the team has been shorthanded at wide receiver with the injury absence of WR Michael Thomas.

New Orleans has scored 25.4 points per game, but their average...

Why does the Saints offense rank last in the NFL in explosive plays?

The New Orleans Saints offense hasn’t quite lit up the scoreboard like we expected it to once Jameis Winston took over. Winston has largely played it safe, avoiding turnover-worthy plays and hesitating to pull the trigger on passes deep downfield. It’s helped the Saints achieve a 3-2 record but it’s also limited the offense by compounding with some other issues.

Let’s focus on the passing game first. The Saints played their first five games without their two best wide receivers, which limited what they could get going downfield. That hurt Winston’s confidence in the weapons he had to work...

Shawn Hochuli, NFL leader in penalty flags thrown, assigned to Saints-Seahawks

Ah jeez. The New Orleans Saints will exit their bye week by kicking off against the Seattle Seahawks on Monday Night Football this week, visiting Lumen Field for the second time in three years. And they’ll be working with (hopefully not against) referee Shawn Hochuli and his crew, which has thrown more penalty flags (87) than any of their peers this season.

Now, to be fair, penalties per game would be a better metric — several crews have already taken a bye week, while Hochuli’s staff have managed six games in as many weeks. In that case, Scott Novak’s crew ranks first (with 16 fouls per...

Did Deonte Harris burn Landon Collins so bad he's moving to linebacker?

Well, no. Deonte Harris abusing Landon Collins in coverage for a 72-yard touchdown reception isn’t the only reason the Washington Football Team is considering moving a prize free agent acquisition to a different position. But seeing the diminutive New Orleans Saints speedster streaking past a safety earning $14 million per year, on top of other issues Collins has had in the role, has to leave Ron Rivera pondering his options.

A potential switch from safety to linebacker has been floated for Collins almost ever since he landed in Washington, with Rivera positing it himself earlier this...

One former New Orleans Saints player is landing on his feet: cornerback Desmond Trufant signed with the Las Vegas Raiders after the Saints released him last week, his agent Doug Hendrickson announced. Trufant joined the Saints in training camp and played well enough to make the opening-day roster, starting Week 2’s game with the Carolina Panthers after an injury sidelined Marshon Lattimore.

He held his own as a backup — totaling 57 snaps in two games, only allowing 2 of 4 passes thrown into his coverage to be completed for 19 yards. Bradley Roby’s arrival pushed him down the depth chart...

The exciting part about this exercise is that we can follow the ups and downs of our beloved Saints throughout the regular season via the variations of their odds not only to make it to the Super Bowl, but first to even make it to the playoffs, win the NFC South, or earn a first round bye in the playoffs.

My favorite website to look at Super Bowl odds throughout the regular season is Five Thirty Eight (FTE). They use the well-oiled Elo rating system. The system was invented by physicist Arpad Elo, and originally designed to rate players in zero-sum games, like chess. The system assigns a...

You wouldn’t expect the New Orleans Saints to see much movement in this week’s NFL power rankings after resting during their bye, but their standing has actually improved across the league media landscape. Jameis Winston’s team has risen from a 12.8 average ranking a week ago to 12.1 after other squads across the NFL competed, which is their second-best spot of the season (trailing only Week 2’s 8.1 rating, fresh off an unexpected dismantling of the Green Bay Packers).

Here’s where the Saints slotted in for various NFL power rankings going into Week 7:

These two clowns forgot to set their lineups but they get a pass because this was a close game. Derrick Henry wasn’t quite enough to overcome Jameis being left in the starting lineup for Team Ertle.

When everything comes down to one pick – and then one moment – to determine your entire week, it’s easy to get a little excited.

So there I was with my Tennessee money line and spread pick against mighty Buffalo on Monday night trying to figure out whether I hoped the Bills would just score and get it over with – and I could at least get paid on the larger spread bet – or root for the Tyler Bass field goal, which would force overtime and I could get greedy and win both.

Once I decided greed would only cause pain and asked the football gods to allow someone with a white jersey to get into...

The Saints (3-2) take on the Seahawks (2-4) for Monday Night Football in Week 7, as New Orleans is fresh off their bye. This will be the 15th regular season between the two, with Seattle leading the all-time series 8-6 and has defeated New Orleans in two postseason meetings (2010 and 2013 seasons). Believe it or not, the Saints have won four out of the past five regular season matchups.

The Saints look to be a bit healthier going into their week of preparation, and we'll get our first glimpse of availability on Thursday in practice, although the team was back to work on Tuesday. Seattle...
