Ep. 156 | JOINT EP - SCM x DOME PATROL x 28 to 3 - plus Saints vs. Bucs RECAP

A collab a long time in the making. This week, we've teamed up with co-hosts of the DOME PATROL Podcast (Jason Montegut) and The Saints City and Me Podcast (Dan Harper) to rehash the bucs game, commiserate in the Saints current woes, talk Shough being QB1, and just BS in general, including Dan and his fellow brits recent journey across the Atlantic from the UK to catch our Saints in the DOME, and also some more enjoyable things they've done around town. This was a fun one - catching up, talking Saints (and of course dishing out some shots) with a couple of old friends, who happen to co-host pods of their own. TUNE IN!

First, whatever Baker…. Now, moving on.It’s been a while since our Boys in Black & Gold have been 1-6. Kinda reminds us of old times…But, we know what this year is, so question is: Will we see our Saints bounce back and at least perform better this week than last? Obviously, we want the W, but an upset/win would be lagniappe at this point. We get into what we want to see in this one and what we think we’ll actually see.The McCoy injury, for one, is scary - add Vita Vea literally on top of that injured spot, and man, can already feel the involuntary cringe. BUT, they’re banged up too, right??EITHER WAY, we have some young guns that can build on promising starts, and we get a chance to see if Rattler can answer the bell or if we get closer to Shough-ing oysters.Also, of course, Corey has a LOCK that the guys actually feel good about. (Yes, we have said that before…) We’ve asked it every week now it seems like, but…”COULD THIS BE THE WEEK?!” (Also, controversy brews over the parameters of his Labubu requirements. Serious stuff).TUNE IN! WHO DAT?!#28to3 #28to3Podcast #NeverForget #NewOrleans #NewOrleansSaints #NFL #NOLA #Saints #WhoDat #WhoDatNation

We know, we know "DA Revenge Game"...Welp, he got it. His defense made the Saints offense look pretty inept, and seemingly exposed what happens when Rattler gets more aggressive with his passing decisions. But, it was not without "some" positives - two solid drives to close out first and open second half - more strong play from some rooks; but...the positives just about ended there. We all agree that Rattler's performance against the Bucs coming into the dome will tell us a lot about his ability to bounce back and, more than likely, a lot about how much longer he'll get the nod at QB1.ALSO, with the Nov. 4th trade deadline looming, we get into guys who we think are "likely" candidates to get moved by LooMISS at the deadline, who's on the "bubble," and who do we think we "should" trade in order to get value while we still can. Some interesting thoughts on this one. TUNE IN!

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!

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!
