The Saints are now 5-7 and five of those losses have come by one score. Eight points are less..

Sunday against the Lions is the latest frustrating example. We're going to talk mainly about the big picture.

Jameis Winston knows ball. Like all former Heisman Trophy winners, he’s given a ballot for the award’s voting each year, and the New Orleans Saints quarterback shared his picks for the 2023 finalists earlier in November.

And half his picks made the cut. Winston named LSU Tigers quarterback Jayden Daniels and Oregon Ducks passer Bo Nix as two of the most impressive players in college football this season, and they’re both in the running with invitations to New York for the Heisman Trophy presentation coming up in December. Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. and Washington Huskies...

NEW ORLEANS — While the New Orleans Saints have time to salvage this season and a relatively weak upcoming schedule, they may have hit a new low point.

The Saints (5-7) have lost three straight for the first time this season to fall a full game behind first-place Atlanta in the NFC South.

Starting quarterback Derek Carr is in the concussion protocol for the second time in a month and also has throwing shoulder and rib injuries — all of which leave his status in doubt for upcoming games.

Then there's the developing Michael Thomas situation.

The two-time All-Pro receiver, who is...

Michael Thomas may not be on the New Orleans Saints in 2024, but it feels unlikely if Dennis Allen and Derek Carr are on the team. The wide receiver was as frustrated as many Saints fans during the beginning of the Saints game with the Detroit Lions.

How do we know? Thomas sent out a series tweets that seemed to be shots directed at Carr, starting with the quarterback’s interception on a deflected pass that could have been thrown to a wide-open receiver on the other side of the field. It’s not the first time Thomas has went at Carr on social media.

Allen was asked about these tweets...

The Saints haven’t won in a month, and the future went from ‘mehhhh’ to “Are you kidding me?!?’ What now? And did Florida State get hosed?

NEW ORLEANS — According to WWL Louisiana contributor and 'Locked on Saints Podcast' host Ross Jackson, NFL chain crew member Nick Piazza will require surgery to repair damage to his left leg while working a Week 13 game in the Caesars Superdome on Sunday.

Piazza suffered a dislocated knee and a fractured fibula during an in-game collision with Saints running back Alvin Kamara inside the second quarter of the Saints' eventual 33-28 loss to the Lions (9-3).

Piazza underwent MRI testing on Monday morning and was examined by an attending orthopedic doctor at the hospital. Ross tweeted on X...

The New Orleans Saints lost their third consecutive game to the Detroit Lions, 33-28, on Sunday in one of the more chaotic NFL games of the season.

NEW ORLEANS — The New Orleans Saints could play the Kansas City Chiefs or a group of preschool children, in either case with five minutes left in the contest it’d be a one-score game, I'm convinced of it. The Dennis Allen Saints are nothing if not consistent.The Saints trailed 21-0 less than seven minutes into the game against the Detroit Lions and it looked for all the world as if we were headed for one of those 52-10 beatdowns where people need to get fired, not because firings would save a 2023 season already lost, but because when you get embarrassed at home in December and are 5-7...

Saints quarterback Derek Carr is in concussion protocol after sustaining his second concussion in three weeks, according to Saints coach Dennis Allen.

What’s the latest on Derek Carr? The New Orleans Saints quarterback was rocked on a big hit from his former teammate Bruce Irvin during Sunday’s loss to the Detroit Lions, exiting the game with what was described as back and shoulder injuries, plus a concussion.

Saints coach Dennis Allen updated Carr’s status on Monday after the training staff had time to fully evaluate him. Allen said that while Carr’s shoulder checked out (he had previously suffered an AC joint sprain this season), his back issue was really more of a rib injury, and Carr will be entering concussion protocol for the...

The damage to the New Orleans Saints sideline official who got hurt in Sunday’s loss to the Detroit Lions was a bit more severe than initially let on.

Derek Carr has a concussion for the second time in three games, but New Orleans Saints coach Dennis Allen said Monday it’s “too early” to say if that will prevent the quarterback from suiting up for Sunday’s game against the…

Dennis Allen said Monday that he wasn’t aware if the New Orleans Saints ordered Michael Thomas to delete his X account after the wide receiver’s cryptic social media posts during Sunday’s loss to the Detroit Lions that appeared to take…
