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. ...

CSC Poll Results: Who are some of the greatest late round picks in Saints history?

In this week's poll question we asked, other than the obvious answer of wide receiver Marques Colston, who is the greatest player the New Orleans Saints have drafted in the 5th round or later. Colston of course would be the runaway favorite, as the fourth-to-last pick in the 2006 draft would go on to become the greatest receiver in Saints history. So, to make things interesting we asked who else could be considered the greatest late round pick in team history.

After 155 votes, punter Thomas Morstead won with 49.7% of the vote. Morstead was a Saint for 12 years and was consistently one of...

NFL Draft Profile: Malachi Corley

Heading into the 2024 NFL Draft next week, the New Orleans Saints have a few needs. Obviously, the biggest need is offensive tackle, which the team will likely (hopefully) address in the first round.

Once they get to the second round, there are a few different routes they could go: defensive line or pass catcher. We’ve already highlighted some second-round receivers such as Keon Coleman, so I thought today we’d take a look at another receiver who’s gaining a lot of traction recently: Malachi Corley.

Malachi Corley is a 5-foot-11, 215-pound receiver from Western Kentucky who has really...

In the intricate chess game that is the NFL schedule, the New Orleans Saints have found themselves in a promising position for the 2024 season. Recent rankings reveal that the Saints are set to tackle the third easiest schedule among all NFL teams this year, offering them a potentially advantageous path to success.

According to the Pro Football Network rankings that came out earlier this week, the Saints have the 3rd easiest schedule behind only the Atlanta Falcons and the Los Angeles Chargers. The strength of schedule is a metric often scrutinized by analysts and fans, serving as a...

Derek Carr could get closer to a rare feat by beating his former team

Don’t be surprised if the New Orleans Saints play the Las Vegas Raiders season opener. Neither team’s cache is particularly high, so the NFL likely won’t push them as marquee matchup. Derek Carr playing his former team is enough to schedule it as a season opener, even if it’s a 12 noon game. Carr certainly has that game circled.

Toppling his former team would be a form of revenge and also get Carr closer to a rare feat. In his decade-long career, Carr has defeated 27 of the 32 teams in the NFL. That leaves the Raiders as one of five teams the quarterback has never defeated. This will be...
