Taliese Fuaga is the player who has the potential raise the ceiling more than any other man along the New Orleans Saints offensive line. If that seems like too much pressure to put on a rookie then blame Erik McCoy. His consistent praise of Fuaga this offseason has elevated the expectations heading into Year 1.

Fuaga will be tested to face some of the most talented pass rushers in the NFL. After the season opener, there’s a four game stretch where Fuaga could line up against Micah Parsons, Bryce Huff, Matthew Judon, and even Chris Jones occasionally.

Trevor Penning is on the other side...

Have you ever seen a defensive back wearing No. 14? Kool-Aid McKinstry has taken it up and changed his New Orleans Saints jersey number from No. 34, which he wore throughout the summer and preseason games. McKinstry shared a look at his new jersey on his Instagram account (which was boosted by his teammate Tyrann Mathieu) and the change has since been reflected on the Saints’ official team website.

It’s certainly a unique decision. McKinstry wore No. 1 at Alabama but it was taken by Alontae Taylor, so he’s going with No. 14 instead. Maybe he’ll wear it more proudly than other Saints...

Let’s be really honest for a second, the Carolina Panthers offense was bad last season. It was so bad, in fact, that it ranked as the worst in the NFL, tied with the Patriots at 13.9 points per game. This week, the New Orleans Saints will get the first look at the Panther new, and supposedly improved, offense.

The Panthers fired Head Coach Frank Reich after an abysmal 2023 season which saw them go 2-15. They went out and hired Dave Canales, former Tampa Bay offensive coordinator, to help Bryce Young and the rest of the offense improve this year.

The Panthers also made some roster changes...
