New Orleans Saints rookie running back Kendre Miller, the 71st pick in the 2023 NFL Draft (third round), needs to impress in a big way this offseason. That is, if he plans to earn touches over the much more established players at his position like five-time Pro Bowl selection Alvin Kamara and the 2022 NFL leader in rushing touchdowns Jamaal Williams.

Fortunately for the rookie, the TCU Horned Frog has some experience outperforming such counterparts in big moments -- like when he outshined the 2023 NFL Draft's eighth overall pick, former Texas Longhorn and current Atlanta Falcon Bijan Robinson in college head-to-head. Miller totaled 138 rushing yards, 75 of which came on his lone rushing touchdown, on 21 carries in a 17-10 win in Austin against the Longhorns in prime time last November. Robinson had a season-low 29 yards on 12 carries, which prompted Miller to declare himself the best running back in the Big 12.

Saints vs. Panthers: 5 defining matchups to watch in Week 14 game

The New Orleans Saints and Carolina Panthers face off for the second time this season. The NFC South features two divisional matchups this week, the first two divisional rematches of the season. New Orleans beat Carolina in their Week 2 showdown and allowed a late touchdown to make the game look closer.

A win is a win, but the Saints need to win convincingly to change the perception of this team. Skating by a 1-11 football team that would have the number one overall pick if they hadn’t traded it away isn’t enough. In order to not just skate by, the Saints need to win these five defining...

This is cool: the New Orleans Saints will be breaking out their black and gold throwback uniforms for Week 14’s game with the Carolina Panthers, dusting them off for the second time in as many years (they were used in last season’s Week 11 win over the Los Angeles Rams after going on a long hiatus).

The Saints are 3-1 in these throwback kits dating back to 2006, with the only loss coming in a 2016 defeat to the Detroit Lions. They have the best win percentage (.750) in the old-school throwbacks, modeled after the team’s uniforms from the inaugural 1967 season jerseys and pants, of any...

Saints Sit/Start: Week 14 against Panthers

There is no doubt that the New Orleans Saints have had a rough season to date. Coaching, play calling, quarterback woes all have played in the team’s setback this season. If you drafted the majority of these players, you expected high hopes, consistent and big plays that led to premium fantasy points. But that hasn’t been the case. Carr has struggle majority of the season. The Saints have suffered a rotation of injured WR’s and TE’s throughout the season. So, this is another week of “Sit” status versus “Start”. Like most fans and fantasy managers, the end of the season probably can’t come...

An NFC south clash is on the slate this week as the last place Carolina Panthers travel to face the third place New Orleans Saints. Maybe this is not so much a clash, but it could be the last gasp of each team’s chances at a respectable season. For the Panthers, fans and the front office want to see growth for Bryce Young and the offense. Meanwhile, the Saints are wanting to see their offense also show some signs of improving behind Derek Carr and the play calling of Pete Carmichael. A loss for the Saints virtually ensures they will not win the NFC South and miss the playoffs, so the...
