A Look at Fantasy Performance in Saints-Bills Showdown Going into Week 5

A Look at Fantasy Performance in Saints-Bills Showdown Going into Week 5

The Week 4 match-up between the New Orleans Saints and the undefeated Buffalo Bills on Sunday, has left many fantasy managers with a mixture of celebrations. While the top-tier players mostly delivered, the overall output from New Orleans’ playmakers and the game’s concerning trends should be a red flag for those relying on a consistent Saints fantasy presence, especially going into week 5 against the Giants.

The 31-19 victory for the Bills highlighted a stark fantasy divide, with Buffalo’s stars proving their elite status, while New Orleans’ players saw their potential curtailed by frustrating red-zone failures.

Saints power ranking entering Week 5

This is starting to sound the same, but the New Orleans Saints have lost again. After last week’s horrible game against Seattle, the Saints did the unthinkable and stayed competitive against the Super Bowl-contending Buffalo Bills. Will this change the rankings?

NFL.com – 31 (+1)

“OK, I can admit I was wrong to have them ranked 32nd last week. The 31-point loss to the Seahawks looks like more of an aberration so far, and Sunday was the Saints’ best effort of the season, coming against a very good Bills team in Buffalo. Spencer Rattler couldn’t win his first...

Our offense vs. their defense: New York Giants

Our offense vs. their defense: New York Giants

The New Orleans Saints are returning home, still with a winless record, after back-to-back road games. On Sunday, New Orleans will host the New York Giants, who are coming off their first win of the year following an upset victory over the Los Angeles Chargers.

An injury-riddled Saints’ offensive line will have a tough test this week against a stout front seven of New York. The Giants rank near the middle of the league now with ten sacks, but half of those have come courtesy of linebacker Brian Burns.

The New Orleans Saints wrapped up their first practice ahead of their Week 5 matchup with the New York Giants. The Saints were without 5 players during Wednesday’s practice, including defensive end Chase Young, who has already been ruled out for Sunday’s matchup as he deals with a calf injury. Tight ends Foster Moreau and Taysom Hill have both returned to practice after being placed on the PUP list before the season started.

A look back at the history between the Saints and Giants

It’s Week 4 and the New Orleans Saints (0-4) find themselves back home in the dome this weekend to face the New York Giants (1-3) in the Caesars Superdome.

It all started for these two teams back on October 8, 1967, which saw the Giants defeat the Saints 27-21 in the historic Yankee Stadium.

Sunday will be the 33rd time that these two franchises have faced one another in the regular season with New York leading the total series 17-16. However, the Saints have won 7 of their last 10 matchups.

These two teams last played one another December 8,...

If Saints win/lose vs. Giants

The New Orleans Saints are back home in the Caesars Superdome when the New York Giants pay a visit to the Big Easy on Sunday. Here’s a look at what either outcome would mean for the black and gold in their Week 5 matchup.

If the Saints win

A home win in the Dome would mark the first of the season for the Saints, and it would prove that the team can still be more than a bottom-feeder in the NFL in 2025.

They’ve had a chance to win every game this season – barring Week 3 in Seattle...

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Entering week 4, the Buccaneers were close in all their games, but somehow managed to squeak out win after win. This week was their most challenging opponent so far, the Eagles. This was always going to be a difficult win, and this proved to be true, with the Eagles taking the win here. The final score of this game was 31-25, and the Buccaneers nearly made a comeback with a great third quarter, but fell short in the fourth. Looking at the rush attack, Tampa Bay...

SB Nation Reacts Survey: Are you confident the Saints are headed in the right direction?

Week 4 of the 2025 season saw the New Orleans Saints head up to Buffalo to take on the undefeated Bills. This was a game that many felt the Saints would get destroyed in, but it turned out to be the best game they have played all season. While they lost 31-19, the game was actually much closer than that. The Saints kept the Bills on their toes most of the game, sacking Josh Allen 3 times. However as in the past 3 weeks, missed opportunities and penalties, although much less, hurt the Saints chances of ever controlling this game....
