Saints receiver talk: Vele's breakout and the Olave question

The New Orleans Saints have built at least a little momentum for themselves in the second half of the season, winning last week at division-leading Tampa Bay. Now they face the team that replaced the Bucs atop the NFC South in the surprising Carolina Panthers. Can the Saints knock off the division leader two weeks in a row and complete a season sweep of Carolina? Our Saints Insiders break down the matchup and give our picks on whether the Saints can win back-to-back games for the first time since last November. #saints #whodat #neworleanssaints #whodatnation #panthers #carolinapanthers #keeppounding #nfl #nflweek15 #nflonfox #football #fantasyfootball #nflpicks

After leading the New Orleans Saints to another victory, Tyler Shough is starting to get some recognition around the NFL, validating the Saints' decision to draft him and then switch to him. His statistics haven't quite caught up — he's still behind Spencer Rattler in a lot of key categories — but our Saints Insiders believe Shough has shown his value in plenty of other ways. We discuss that, plus the Saints' running game, improving defense and their chances of a strong finish on this episode. #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nflweek15 #nflquarterbacks #nflrookies #football #fantasyfootball

The New Orleans Saints travel to play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a chance to play spoiler in the NFC South race.

The New Orleans Saints saw a breakout performance from second-year receiver Devaughn Vele during Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins, and they also had their top receiver, Chris Olave, continue to raise questions about whether he's a long-term No. 1 option. What does it all mean for the future of the Saints' receiver room? Our Insiders discuss, plus: • Charlie Smyth's magical debut • What to watch for in the final month of the season • The potential draft pick and what the Saints might do with it #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nflweek14 #nfldraft #football #fantasyfootball

As the New Orleans Saints prepare to play the Miami Dolphins in NFL Week 13, looking for just their third win of the season, they will play out the string of the season looking for reasons to hope in the future. Start with quarterback Tyler Shough, who has shown some promise in his three starts. But the play-calling from supposed offensive guru Kellen Moore has been a struggle, especially in the red zone. Can it get any better? Our Saints Insiders discuss the various problems (some Moore's fault, some not) and solutions that could be found this season and other areas that will need to be fixed in the offseason. #saints #neworleanssaints #nfl #nflweek13 #whodat #whodatnation #finsup #miamidolphins #football #fantasyfootball

The New Orleans Saints are 2-9, and their kicker certainly isn't their biggest problem. But it is the latest one. In this episode, our Saints Insiders discuss why the team had to make the move it didn't want to make with Blake Grupe, why on earth they brought in Justin Tucker for a tryout and what to expect from Cade York. Also, we'll break down the Brandin Cooks release and what Alvin Kamara's future might hold. #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #football #nfl #nflweek13 #nflthanksgiving

The New Orleans Saints return home for the first time in a month to face their hated rival Atlanta Falcons.

Our Saints Insiders discuss, analyze and offer their predictions. #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nflweek12 #falcons #riseup #football #fantasyfootball #footballpicks

The New Orleans Saints hit their bye week at 2-8, among the worst teams in the NFL. But how disappointing has this 2025 season actually been? Our Saints Insiders hand out grades for the team, from offense and defense to the coaching staff, rookies and even the front office. How harsh will we be? And is there reason to hope for the future, starting with the final seven games? We'll break it all down in this episode. #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nflweek11 #football #fantasyfootball

The New Orleans Saints won a game Sunday, and our Saints Insider crew is feeling good about it. Specifically, our experts laud the performance of rookie quarterback Tyler Shough and the New Orleans defense, both of which give them reason to hope for the Saints to finish strong in 2025 against a laughably easy schedule. There are a few doses of reality, too, but there's no denying the long-term outlook for the Saints looks a lot better than it did just a week ago. #saints #neworleanssaints #whodat #whodatnation #nfl #nflweek11 #nflquarterbacks #football #fantasyfootball
