Saints power ranking entering Week 13

NFL.com – 30 (=)

“The box score says the Saints turned the ball over twice in their loss to the Falcons, but I count six empty possessions (including two missed field-goal tries and two turnovers on downs) that really held the offense down. If they’re going to be relatively conservative with Tyler Shough early in games, then they must have a reliable kicker to be competitive. Blake Grupe had been better of late entering Sunday, but his two first-half misses really hurt — hence Justin Tucker‘s workout with the team. (EDITOR’S UPDATE: The Saints are releasing Grupe and...

Saints 2026 draft position after Week 12

Saints 2026 draft position after Week 12

After yet another loss on the season, the New Orleans Saints missed out on getting a win streak, but their draft position did improve. Going into week 13, the Saints are projected to select at pick 3 in the first round. With that, New Orleans is also set to draft at pick 68 in the third round, and that is where we will focus on for today.

Starting with the first prospect, this is a bit of a potential riser, but it would make sense why the Saints would be interested. WR Malachi Fields, who transferred to Notre Dame after...

Our defense vs. their offense: Miami Dolphins

Our defense vs. their offense: Miami Dolphins

Although the Miami Dolphins are riding a three-game winning streak heading into their contest with the New Orleans Saints, Tua Tagovailoa and the offense will run into the 12th-ranked defense in the league when the teams square off on Sunday afternoon.

New Orleans is allowing just 316.1 yards per game to opposing offenses. It’s difficult to win in the NFL if you’re unable to move the football, but unfortunately for the Saints, they also give up the 11th-most points per game. Miami has a high-octane offense capable of getting into scoring position quickly.

Tagovailoa has eclipsed 2,000 passing yards every...

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Well, things are getting worse for the Buccaneers. After losing to the Buffalo Bills last week, Tampa Bay was nearly tied with the Panthers at the top of the division, and wins were a necessity, but that didn’t happen in Week 12. Instead, the division leaders lost to the Rams by 27 points, and QB Baker Mayfield went down with a shoulder injury. For QBs, shoulder injuries are a big worry if they are on the throwing arm, but good news for Mayfield, it was on the other arm. Still, this is the downside to Mayfield’s...

Our offense vs. their defense: Miami Dolphins

The New Orleans Saints are facing a road contest versus the Miami Dolphins this Sunday in what should be a low-scoring affair between two of the poorer offenses in the league. The Saints are coming off a 24-10 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, while Miami enjoyed time off during its bye week.

Through week 12, New Orleans is tied with the Las Vegas Raiders as the worst scoring offense in the league. Both teams are averaging just 15 points per game. A big factor in the Saints’ inability to put points on the board has been their inefficient red zone...
