Fourth-year New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave is coming off a career season, logging 100 receptions for 1,163 yards and 9 touchdowns. Olave started the year off slowly. While getting plenty of targets, he failed to reach 100 receiving yards in a game until Week 10, and the big plays were missing from his game.
It wasn’t until the New Orleans Saints decided to move on from standout wide receiver Rashid Shaheed and start rookie quarterback Tyler Shough that we saw Olave become the receiver we knew him to be. Since Week 10, the former first-round pick has brought...

The 2025 NFL season didn’t go how we expected for the New Orleans Saints… kinda. We knew that New Orleans was going to be one of the bottom teams in terms of wins, but you won’t find a happier 6-win team. The Saints aren’t happy because they won six games, not in the slightest, but an emergence of a potential coach of the future, franchise quarterback, and a homerun draft class, the black and gold may be set up to compete, maybe even starting in 2026.
In what was known to be a down season for the Saints, many players...

New Orleans Saints rookie quarterback Tyler Shough was named the NFC’s Rookie of the Month for his performance during December and January.
Shough was stellar for New Orleans, recording 1,316 passing yards and five passing touchdowns while throwing just two interceptions. Shough also made an impact as a runner, adding 135 yards on the ground and another three touchdowns. Most impressively, however, Shough led the Saints to a 4-1 record through December.

The New Orleans Saints’ decision to ink DE Chase Young to a three-year, $51 million contract extension with $33 million guaranteed drew heavy criticism this offseason. Tired of the “bust” label, the former No. 2 overall pick responded with a career year.
After missing the first five games of the season with a calf injury, Young recorded the first double-digit sack season of his career with 10 and led the team with 49 total pressures in just 12 appearances—10 more than Carl Granderson, who finished second with 39 pressures in 17 games. He also finished the year with 38 total...

Some insight on the difficulty of New Orleans opponents next season.
Taking advantage of a week division and QB on a rookie contract.
It was a long season for the Saints, but Kellen Moore’s improvement throughout was one of the top takeaways from the year.

The New Orleans Saints finished last in the NFC South this season, and as a result, they will face three opponents next season that also finished last in their respective divisions. This is excellent news for the Saints’ hopes of improving their record next year, but it also plummets their strength of schedule.
According to @sfdata9ners, the Saints have the second-easiest schedule when using current records.
Strength of schedule is always an interesting factor to consider when projecting future win totals, and for the Saints, it seems they could have a chance to improve on this season. Obviously, the offseason...
