Who was the Saints’ breakout player vs. the Patriots?

The New Orleans Saints returned to the loss column with a 25–19 defeat to the New England Patriots in Week 6 of the 2025 NFL season.

The breakout player from the Saints’ loss to the Patriots has been exceeding expectations each week—and he may have just delivered his best performance in Black and Gold: QB Spencer Rattler.

Rattler completed 20 of 26 passes for 227 yards with a 76.9% completion rate, adding 20 rushing yards on four attempts. The 25-year-old posted a team-high 93.2 overall grade against the Patriots, including a 91.7 passing grade, per Pro Football Focus.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly from the Saints loss to the Patriots

The Good: Blake Grupe

The New Orleans Saints kicker had a bounce back game on Sunday, making all four of his field goals against the New England Patriots a week after missing two of six field goals against the Giants. Grupe hit from 34, 48, 38, and 54 yards, each of them important too as they either gave the Saints a lead or brought them to within one score of New England. Grupe has been criticized a lot this year, as going into Sunday he had made just 10 of 15 field goal attempts on the year. But following...

Overreactions: Saints vs. Patriots

The New Orleans Saints weren’t able to pull off the upset against the New England Patriots, falling 25-19 in Week 6 of the 2025 NFL season at Caesars Superdome. Here’s the biggest overreaction from this weekend’s matchup:

The Saints should move WR Chris Olave at the trade deadline.

While Olave caught a team-high six passes on 10 targets for 98 yards—tying his career-long 53-yard reception from his rookie season on the first play of the game—he also had several crucial drops that many would argue cost the team the game against a red-hot Patriots squad.

Spencer Rattler completed 20 of...

The New Orleans Saints hosted the New England Patriots on Sunday as they looked to build off of their first win of the season a week ago. Here’s a quick recap of all that went down.

First Quarter

The Saints got the ball first in this one, with Spencer Rattler wasting no time as he connected with Chris Olave for 53 yards on the game’s first play. Although the drive would fizzle out from there, Blake Grupe converted from 34 yards, and the hosts were on the board.

In Week 6, we saw the New Orleans Saints lose at home 25-19 to the New England Patriots. While a lot can be said about this game, let’s take a look at some important quotes from various Saints players and coaches after Sunday’s loss in the Superdome:

Head Coach Kellen Moore

On the roadblocks offensively:
“That’s on me. We’re not doing a good enough job. We’re extending some drives. We’re not getting the ultimate points that we need out of that drive. Whether it be settling for a field goal from the red zone or getting stalled out across the...

What are the odds? Saints march into Week 7 as 5.5-point underdogs vs. the Bears

On Sunday, we saw the New Orleans Saints fall 25-19 to the New England Patriots, dropping to 1-5 on the season. While the Saints were in this one until the end, the defense often struggled to stop Drake Maye, and the offense had several missed opportunities in the red zone, resulting in field goals which was just too much for them to overcome late in the 4th to get the victory. This loss is now the 3rd one that the Black and Gold have dropped by one score or less, which head coach Kellen Moore called frustrating after the game....
