Some of the most memorable home moments in an underrated and unusual Saints-Rams rivalry.

By Bob Rose - Saints News Network | SI

The New Orleans Saints return from a bye week to square off against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday inside the Caesars Superdome. New Orleans comes in with a 4-7 record after winning two straight under interim coach Darren Rizzi. The Rams are 5-6 after losing two of their last three, including last week at home against the Eagles.

This game renews a long rivalry between these franchises. The Saints and Rams were longtime NFC West rivals for 31 years between 1970 and 2001. Before league realignment in 2002, the Saints (2000) and St. Louis Rams (1999 and 2001) alternated the last three NFC West championships.

Sunday's game will be the 80th all-time meeting between these two franchises, including two postseason matchups. The Rams relocated to St. Louis from 1995 to 2015 before moving back to the west coast, but the rivalry always remained intact.

New Orleans has just a 35-44 record against the Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams, with a 26-31 mark against them when the Rams were located in L.A. The Saints haven't had much success on the road in these matchups. However, they are a more respectable 19-20 at home against the Rams. That includes a 15-14 record during the years that the Rams called Los Angeles home.

The New Orleans Saints staff is nearly complete, and over on the defensive side of the ball, the team has made a concerted effort to add college experience. The hires of Peter Sirmon and Terry Joseph represent this goal, and today, per Luke Johnson, the Saints have done it again with the hiring of LSU defensive line coach Bo Davis.

INDIANAPOLIS — New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis sees 11-year veteran quarterback Derek Carr as “a guy we can win with, and we’re excited about it.”

Loomis made those comments on Wednesday to a small group of New Orleans-based reporters who traveled to Indianapolis for the NFL scouting combine.

Carr has two years remaining on the four-year, $150 million contract that brought him to New Orleans as a free agent in 2023.

He is 14-13 as a starter in two seasons with the Saints, having gone 5-5 during an injury-riddled 2024 campaign. The Saints went 5-12 last season, their...

There has been a lot of rumors swirling regarding the future of Derek Carr with the New Orleans Saints. Many thought that with the new regime, there could be a major change at the quarterback position, but that doesn’t appear to be the case.

On Wednesday, Nick Underhill reported that the Saints are likely going to stick with Carr for the 2025 season.

Carr’s two-year career in New Orleans has been disappointing to say the least. In 2023, Carr was solid, throwing for 3,878 yards, 25 touchdowns and eight interceptions while leading the Saints to a 9-8 record and missing the playoffs by one...
