    8-8 is my prediction. Too many injuries and questionable defense play. I also have question marks about the o line.

    First time offense looked great

    Points on every drive Brees had.

    And with more focus on the run game we good. We can get a lead and run the ball to win.

    8-8 is disrespectful. We have the best team in the division. And can easily sweep the division.

    I think it's gonna be between us and Atlanta at 10-6, Jameis is gonna have consistency problems as a rookie, and Carolina's offense will be ? awful like they always are even if they had Kelvin for the whole season.

    Our schedule favors us. We just need to get the defense off the field on third downs and close games if we have a lead.

    I have no faith in Rob Ryan's defense improving...

    Ryan must got the worlds largest rabbit foot in his pocket

    I understand him not wanting to show his hand too much in preseason, but damn, last night was terribad

    again, putting things into perspective, im not exactly sure what he was doing. I mean, if the goal was to just leave the game as healthy as possible, then i guessed he succeeded, but i didnt see one blitz one time.

    I hope they've been trolling everybody else with Vaccaro an Browners injuries. Those are pretty key positions that need to be healthy starting next week. Breaux seems like the only guy ready to play. Jean-Baptiste needs to step up.

    Jean-Baptiste needs to be cut and out of the league but he might still make it because of Keenan Lewis injury.

    @ZydecoShawty do you like anything about our team? You seem so angry about everything.

    Bruh, stop it. Constructive criticism over poor production does not equal anger.

    Ryan had a great year and a bad year


    Why should he be fired?


    All that switching coaches so quick is what trash teams do.

    Stanley Jean-Baptiste was a Rob Ryan endorsed pick, we all see that pick isn't turning out to well.

    I don't believe Loomis and Coach would listen to Ryan about drafting a a player.

    He don't have that type of influence in the organization.

    Baptiste was a Rob Ryan endorsed pick, as well as the Champ Bailey acquisition.

    I expect the offense to be good and the defense to be bending/breaking.
    Gonna be a long season. I'm expecting a lot of screaming at the tv and heavy drinking.

    The team on Tuesday hosted free-agent pass-catcher Hakeem Nicks for a workout, according to Nick Underhill of The New Orleans Advocate.

    Nicks was released by the Titans on Saturday, leaving the 27-year-old looking for work after six seasons in the NFL with the Giants and Colts.

    Nicks has seen his speed dry up after a laundry list of foot and lower-body injuries. The former Big Blue star looked healthier down the stretch with the Colts last season, but the Saints can't view him as more than a depth addition. Still, the Saints have just four wideouts on their roster in Marques Colston, Brandin Cooks, Willie Snead and Brandon Coleman.

    If the Saints pass, we wouldn't be stunned to see Tennessee -- another team with just four receivers -- bring Nicks back in the days ahead.

    New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan is under investigation after an incident was reported at a Warehouse District nightclub early Sunday, New Orleans police confirmed Tuesday evening (Sept. 8).

    A woman told police that she and her boyfriend "got into an altercation with a male subject identified as Cameron Jordan" at 828 S. Peters St., the location of Republic New Orleans nightclub, according to news release from Tyler Gamble, NOPD communications director.

    "Detectives are reviewing surveillance video and the investigation is ongoing," Gamble said in the release. "No charges have been filed and no arrests have been made at this point."

    Gamble said the incident was reported to police at 4:43 a.m. Sunday.

    According to an earlier report from WWL, a man and his girlfriend alleged that Jordan swatted the woman on her behind and then got into a minor scuffle with her boyfriend in the bathroom.

    Jordan recently signed a five-year, $60 million contract extension with the Saints.

    The Saints said they have no comment on the investigation.

    I just hope the youth movement in the front 7 pays off and help the secondary out til Lewis and Byrd get back. I think they should have PUP Byrd til he gets 100% healthy. Seems like a guessing game on when they expect him to be back. Still having issues with a knee he had surgery done on last year and ? , I don't see the point of rushing him back and risking re-injury with all this uncertainty.
