NEW ORLEANS - Thirty years ago, the New Orleans Saints selected University of Pittsburgh running back Craig "Ironhead'' Heyward in the first round of the 1988 NFL draft. At age 21, he was built like a bull, full of bull(...) and overtly bullish about his ability.

Oh yes, Heyward also was trouble waiting to happen.

Heyward died May 27, 2006, at the age of 39 after a colorful, hit-and-miss 11-year career with five NFL teams.

His best years came in Atlanta where he produced his only 1,000-yard season (1995) and scored 19 touchdowns in three seasons (1994-'96).

Heyward brought baggage with him to New Orleans, most notably weight and behavioral problems that followed him from Pitt. That said, Heyward's physical prowess -- he was a nightmare to tackle at 325-plus pounds and possessed nimble feet and deceptive speed -- made him an attractive pick at No. 24.

It all started with 32 teams. 6 months later, the confetti has fallen and the Philadelphia Eagles have been crowned Super Bowl LIX Champions.

Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was named the game's MVP. Hurts went 17/22 for 221 yards and a 119.7 QBR.

Hurts 3 total touchdowns and a dominating performance by their defense helped the Eagles defeat the Kansas City Chiefs (40-22), denying Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs their opportunity for a "three-peat" in front of a sold-out crowd of over 65,000 in the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.

Tonight was the city’s record-tying 11th time hosting the...

Kellen Moore's stunning Super Bowl blowout is a big Saints selling point

It’s one thing to advertise your new head coach as someone who got to the Super Bowl. That message in itself resonates with young star talents like Chris Olave — but what Kellen Moore achieved on Sunday night is something else altogether. The Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator put on a clinic in Super Bowl LIX, preparing his offense to handle one of the NFL’s greatest defenses. And this performance has to be music to the New Orleans Saints’ ears.

Moore faced off with Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo and turned the clock back to 2012, when Spags’ Saints defense allowed...

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni makes Hail Mary try at retaining Kellen Moore

You can’t hate a guy for trying. With another Super Bowl victory in hand and grinning players and coaches all around him, Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni took a moment to try and sustain his success a little longer.

Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore put on a show in Sunday night’s runaway win over the Kansas City Chiefs, as did veteran defensive coordinator Vic Fangio. Sirianni thanked both of them in his postgame speech but he also made a last-second, maybe halfhearted plea to Moore with green confetti raining down around him from the postgame stage.

“Kellen, you...

Derek Carr was conspicuously absent throughout New Orleans' Super Bowl week

It’s been hard to miss all the New Orleans Saints players making the rounds in the media this week. Many of them were quarterbacks — backups like Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener either shook hands and took photos with fans at the Super Bowl Experience event at the Caesars Superdome or promoted their sponsorship partners on various podcasts and radio shows. Drew Brees was a popular interview on that same circuit. FOX Sports gave Jameis Winston a microphone and a camera crew and told him to be himself.

All of this makes Derek Carr’s absence highly conspicuous. Fan favorites of yesteryear...

The New Orleans Saints aren’t playing today, but here’s your Sunday splash report. NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo shared some insight to the team’s big offseason decision on Derek Carr’s future with the team.

“He’s got a $10 million roster bonus that is fully guaranteed. And then he’s got another $30 million in base salary for this upcoming season that becomes guaranteed three days into the league year in March.”

There’s your deadline for the Saints to make a decision, but they’ll really need to act quicker. They’re in the red by more than $50 million and must be compliant with the salary...

There is something of a new development in the New Orleans Saints head coaching search, as their primary candidate Kellen Moore will be flying back home with the Philadelphia Eagles following Super Bowl LIX, per NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill. Given the game is being held in New Orleans and played at the Saints’ home stadium, it had been speculated Moore may stay behind to try and work out a deal first. But this will not be the case.

Whether Moore is celebrating a championship win with his teammates or working on exit interviews, he’ll put a pin on this Eagles season before turning...

The New Orleans Saints are now fully expected to hire Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore for their head coaching position following Super Bowl LIX tonight at the Caesars Superdome.

Reports state that Moore will fly back to Philly with the Eagles after the game and continue the conversation with the Black and Gold.

The only potential roadblock in the way would be a disagreement in contract, but that seems unlikely at this point.

Moore has been a name to watch for several seasons now as one of the best young offensive minds in the game. After missing out on the likes...
