Ep. 149 | SAINTS vs. Giants PREVIEW - Beach Trip EP - On location in Destin, FL

The Saints head to Chi-town to face their old coach. Some might call it a “revenge game” for DA, but it should really be one for the Saints to get him back for the two years of pain he inflicted upon us as HC. Also, Rattler gets his first chance to duel it out against the guy who took his job at OU. Will our QB1 show out more due to added motivation?? We break down whether we can keep up to even the score against those familiar foes, or whether we’ll see more of the same? (i.e. another “close” loss).PLUS, a quite shameful twist has entered the chat for Corey’s LOCKS. Does he really have to wear a Labubu on his chain until he hits on a lock this year?? TUNE IN to get the answers to all of the above. WHO DAT?!#28to3 #28to3Podcast #NeverForget #NewOrleans #NewOrleansSaints #NFL #NOLA #Saints #WhoDat #WhoDatNation #Lock or #Labubu

Another one-score loss in the books against a decent opponent, and similar to the other ones, this one had some positives that can be taken away but also exposed some glaring weaknesses in this roster.. We all agree this was Spencer Rattler's best game yet, as he continues to show improvement. Also, Kellen Moore appeared to do all he could from a play-calling perspective, but it was certain key skill players who we should be able to rely upon that dropped the ball...LITERALLY. We break down those who frustrated and give flowers to those who played their asses off despite their teammates woes. And....as the trade deadline looms, we may just figure to be sellers...who is primed to be on their way out?? We get into all that and more in this one. TUNE IN!

Can our Saints make it TWO in a row? We’re back in studio to preview the Saints matchup with the Patriots in the dome. A couple of hot takes in this one and as always a couple of tangents. Do we have what it takes to get it done? ALSO, does Corey have what it takes to FINALLY hit on a LOCK?! TUNE IN to find out! WHO DAT?!

Took five games, but WE GOT ONE! Was great to see Kellen Moore get his first win as an NFL head coach, see Rattler get the monkey off his back/end the winless streak as a starter, and simply see the home crowd have something to cheer about. Now…did the Giants help us out a decent bit with a multitude of mistakes? Sure, but at the end of the day, the Saints capitalized when they needed to. We go through the positives and talk about some areas that might still give us pause. Overall though, feels good to get one in the Win column.

Our Saints are back in the Dome on Sunday, but we have made our annual fall beach trip to Destin, FL but that didn't stop us from dropping our PREVIEW EP this week. Now...no promises that everything in this one is as "on point" or that there aren't extra tangents given the circumstances/vibes, BUT we still bring the heat in this one. Definitely entertaining and worth the listen. Plus...a different vibe on COREY'S LOCK?? TUNE IN to find out!

By far the best thing from Sunday's bout against the Bills (at least from a loss) was that the Saints squarely put their performance against Seattle in the rearview - or, at least, successfully avoided a repeat terrible performance. We all agree there were definitely positives to take from this one, i.e. a serious/legitimate looking rushing attack, total reduction in bonehead/presnap penalties, and much more competitiveness against a much more talented road opponent (than last week vs. Seattle). BUT...(there's always a "but"...especially with this team) we also agree, there are some serious and significant pieces which require difficult conversations. For instance, Rattler has improved greatly from last season, but has he plateau'd?? He's had four weeks now to show improved accuracy but the same mistakes continue to be made. Also, is Olave simply "not that guy" and trading him is looking like a no-brainer, assuming we can even get anything for him at this point? Definitely pleased to see the team compete against one of the league's best, but still much for the team to figure out. TUNE IN! WHO DAT?!#28to3 #28to3Podcast #NeverForget #NewOrleans #NewOrleansSaints #NFL #NOLA #Saints #WhoDat #WhoDatNation

No rest for the weary. Coming off one of the worst losses in recent memory, the Saints travel to the land of the Bills Mafia to take on what could be the best team in the league this week. Given the team's current makeup/performance thus far, unfortunately, we are far from expecting a win, BUT can the team show improvement from last week? We break down the test the Saints will be facing and what we want to see, even if it isn't a W, as the Saints head up north to take on the BILLS. Speaking of "wins", is THIS the week Corey can hit his first LOCK of the season? TUNE IN to find out!

Man. We knew we were in "rebuild" mode, but still didn't think we'd see it look that bad this year. Hard to describe the Saints loss in Seattle as anything other than embarrassing. If it could go wrong, it did go wrong. Naturally, this led us to some heated discussion and debate, plus a lot of venting about some of the glaring things that went wrong in this one. We agree that Rattler in no way lost this one - this was a total team level of let down - BUT, did another week of him under center show that the Saints need more out of the QB position to be competitive. Does it mean we'll see Shough sooner now? Or, will Moore stick to his words from when he named Rattler QB1, i.e. that he won't have a short leash?TUNE IN to find out. We bring the heat in this one. WHO DAT?!

The Saints first road trip of the season is a long one as they head up to the Pacific Northwest (Kaden Ellis Country!) to take on the Seahawks in Seattle. Coach Moore said earlier this week that he loves road games because they bring the team together, so we'll see if that's the case. Corey and Max break this one down, Nick had to sit this one out due to some work trip obligations, but per usual, we bring the heat in breaking this one down. PLUS it's another week of COREY'S LOCKS! Like the Saints, Corey is in search of his first win/LOCK of the season and he's been "this close" in both of them so far. He's feeling good about this one/feeling like he's "due" TUNE IN to find out if it's one you can take to the bank and to hear our game predictions. WHO DAT?!

Two straight home games for the Saints to open the Kellen Moore era and it's now two straight one score losses, ending on potential game-winning drives for the Saints. In the not-too-distant past, this would have had the whole fan-base up in arms; but, since it's the first two games for a first year head coach and coaching staff, this is "to be expected", right?? We all agree the leash should be reasonably long for Coach Moore, and Staley (as far as the defense goes); but, we still dive in to our thoughts on the game as a whole. Rattler had his best game to date, but should we still ask for more out of him when it comes to some of the finer points? Also, wtf is up with Olave? and...Juwan continues to "amaze".... Put it this way, on-field "production" has rarely looked so bad. But, can the team turn it around, or at least show signs of putting all the pieces together? TUNE IN to get our takes on it!
