Ingram’s suspension hurts, but it’s not the end of the world.

By Chris Dunnells

In 2017, the New Orleans Saints’ Running Backs were really something special. After jettisoning off future Hall of Fame RB Adrian Peterson after Week 4, rookie Alvin Kamara and veteran Mark Ingram took off.

“Boom and Zoom,” as they became known, each had a Pro Bowl season as the duo become the first backfield to each have over 1,500 yards from scrimmage a piece. Ingram set a career high with 1,124 yards and Kamara, the NFL’s most efficient rusher, set a record for the most yards per touch, 7.7, with a minimum of 200 touches. Oh yeah, and Kamara added an extra 106 yards and a TD on kickoff returns.

So here’s why they’re better in 2018:

Let’s start by addressing the elephant in the room: the 4-game suspension of Mark Ingram hurts. Make no mistake about it: Ingram’s presence in both the ground game and in pass-protection will be missed.

Saints set to make a decision on Derek Carr, per reports

The New Orleans Saints offseason will be filled with tough decisions, one being the future of QB Derek Carr. Since 2023, Carr has had an up-and-down time in New Orleans. The Saints were hard to stop when he was playing well, but the issue was Carr’s consistency and questionable decisions on the field. The factor that made his play even worse was the contract, and although it looked great at the beginning, it has become one that crippled the Saints’ finances. This situation is similar to what happened with Russell Wilson in Denver, where they had to make a difficult decision. The Saints are...

One play from Super Bowl LIX may show Kellen Moore's mindset

During the Philadelphia Eagles’ rout of the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, there was one particular play and decision that stood out the rest.

The Eagles were leading the Chiefs 27-0 in the third quarter. By this time, there was a feeling the game was over. Kellen Moore didn’t take his foot off the gas. On the first play after a Kansas City turnover on downs, Jalen Hurts threw a bomb to DeVonta Smith, who appeared to be the primary target.

Moore is expected to be the New Orleans Saints head coach. He worked under Nick Sirianni and Brandon Staley in his last two stops. Both of...

Report: Derek Carr would have multiple suitors on the open market

Derek Carr future with the New Orleans Saints is up in the air and should be decided soon. He isn’t willing to take a pay cut and there’s a good chance he would opt to not waive his no-trade clause unless a great situation arises.

The problem is if it’s clear the New Orleans Saints are going to get rid of Carr regardless, teams may be reluctant to trade for Carr. The Saints were in the same situation two years ago when Carr left the Las Vegas Raiders.

However, do not expect a reluctant trade market to translate to a reluctant market if Carr becomes a free agent.

A surprise ESPN personality may be joining the Saints coaching staff

A surprise TV personality may be joining the New Orleans Saints coaching staff. Dan Orlovsky, Kellen Moore’s old teammate on the Detroit Lions, shared a vague sign-off message Monday morning on ESPN.

“You guys know this is the end of the season for me, certainly for (cohost Ryan Clark) as well, I’m taking a break,” Orlovsky said. “Won’t be on TV for a long time… Never know what the future holds, but I’m taking a break and I’m sure RC is as well.”

He’d be an interesting addition to Moore’s staff, assuming the Saints do hire the Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator. Orlovsky and Moore...

Vic Fangio returned to where his NFL career started, and left a champion

Credit where it’s due: Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio crafted a game plan that beat the brakes off the Kansas City Chiefs, slowing down and frustrating their offense long enough for Kellen Moore’s offense to put up enough points to keep the game out of reach. And they did it in the Super Bowl, the first title win of Fangio’s long NFL career.

It’s fitting that Super Bowl LIX was played at the same Superdome where Fangio started that coaching career. His first NFL job was with the New Orleans Saints, where he got to work with a couple of Hall of Fame linebackers on the...
