Last season, the National Football League didn’t think all that much of the New Orleans Saints’ chances after trudging through three straight 7-9 seasons, and seemingly on course for a fourth in the 2017 season.

The league awarded the team just two prime time games, their Week 1 regular season opener on the road against the Minnesota Vikings in the first Monday Night Football game of the year, and a Thursday night clash with the Atlanta Falcons, also on the road, in early December. The Saints went 0-2 in those games.

But the 2018 season finds the Saints a major focus of attention to the league, who have scheduled five prime time games featuring the reigning NFC South champions to be played before a national audience.

New Orleans will face the Washington Redskins on Oct. 8 and the division rival Carolina Panthers on Dec. 17 in a pair of Monday Night Football games this season. The league also awarded the Saints a Sunday night contest, on Oct. 28 against the Minnesota Vikings, and a pair of Thursday night games, on Thanksgiving against the Atlanta Falcons and on Nov. 29 in Dallas against the Cowboys.

On Sunday, a Jameis Winston led Cleveland Browns team visited the New Orleans Saints. In what some considered a revenge game for Winston; he was unable to come away with the W.

Cleveland would receive the ball to begin the game. They would immediately give it off to Nick Chubb, who would carry for six yards. An incomplete pass and a one-yard run would come next. The Browns went for it on fourth and one but failed to convert.

Taysom Hill would be featured on the Saints first drive, and pretty much every drive afterwards. After two runs by Alvin Kamara - that totaled 18 yards - Hill would...

Taliese Fuaga kept Browns' star pass rusher off the stat sheet

Taliese Fuaga stepped into the biggest challenge of his career against Myles Garrett, and the rookie passed with flying colors. Garrett didn’t register a single snap against the New Orleans Saints. Not a sack, not a quarterback hit, not even a tackle.

It may make you wonder if Garrett is injured. He’s dealt with injuries, but Garrett said earlier last week he felt like he was at an 8, on a scale of 1 to 10. He’s also coming off of a 3-sack performance against the Chargers.

This is a huge win for Fuaga. He took one of the best pass rushers and made him a non-factor in the game. Garrett...

Sean Payton moved to Denver and still owns the NFC South

The Atlanta Falcons were painfully reminded of something that has been true for nearly 20 years. Sean Payton has partial ownership in the Atlanta Falcons. Maybe they hoped things changed since Payton was no longer leading the New Orleans Saints.

However, when the Falcons visited the Denver Broncos, Payton showed the new emblem on the hat doesn’t lessen his dominance over the Falcons. Payton improved his record to 22-9 against the Falcons with a dominating 38-6 victory.

Atlanta wasn’t the only team to get this reminder. Payton swept the NFC South this year and showed them why they all...

Don’t look now, but the New Orleans Saints are making ground in the NFC South race. Just two weeks ago, the Saints were looking at a top-five pick in next year’s NFL draft and the division crown looked like a long shot. While fans may still be looking at the draft, they should keep an eye on the top of division too.

Darren Rizzi replaced Dennis Allen and won two games in a row against the Atlanta Falcons and Cleveland Browns. The Saints and Carolina Panthers have won their last two games, while the Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers have lost their last two games.

The NFC South is much tighter than it was a few weeks ago, but the standings look similar. Let’s take a look at how the NFC South has played out through 11 weeks.
