Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Well, well, well… first place in the division just got a bit more interesting. After coming off a near-embarrassing loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Buccaneers then lost to the now 3-10 Saints. This was a game that Tampa Bay had no reason to lose, and compared to how this team looked at the beginning of the season, this is an entirely different team. QB Baker Mayfield’s accuracy issues are clear; HC Todd Bowles is making confusing decisions, like going away from the run early; the Bucs’ great run defense was not consistent enough against the...

Despite the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the New Orleans Saints are still officially eliminated from playoff contention with a 3-10 record.

After discussing the New Orleans Saints’ upcoming matchup on the offensive side of the ball, we’ll now flip the attention to what the defense has to face this Sunday versus the Carolina Panthers. Following a dominant performance in the previous meeting, does Brandon Staley’s defense have an encore in them for Week 15?

The Saints currently rank 12th in the league in defense, allowing just 313.5 yards and 24.2 points per game. Meanwhile, Carolina’s offense puts up just 19 points a contest while averaging a little over 311 yards per game. Those marks have the Panthers slotted in at 23rd...

Tyler Shough has yet another great performance, but what could it mean for the future?

A debatable opinion that has been heavily discussed among Saints fans.

Tyler Shough closing in on a couple of Saints rookie passing records

The rookie is on his way to make more history.

On Tuesday, December 9, 2025, the New Orleans Saints partnered with Louisiana Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (LSPCA) to spread some special holiday cheer with a special gift drop for the organization. Saints quarterback Tyler Shough as well as members of the Saints Cheer Krewe and Gumbo were in attendance to help deliver the gifts and give some love to the animals onsite.

This event was just one of many held during Gayle Benson’s Month of Giving, an annual initiative that underscores her dedication to supporting charitable organizations and strengthening community programs all across Louisiana.

“Tyler Shough hasn’t been amazing, but he’s played well enough for the Saints to consider him as the possible starter in 2026. Even with an interception and limited passing success in Sunday’s win over Tampa, Shough dealt well with heavy pressure and made big plays with his legs on his first two career rushing TDs. The rookie has looked pretty composed in leading two Saints victories in his five starts, and the Saints might have a chance to finish with five or six total Ws. It might be foolish at this moment to simply...

The New Orleans Saints are back home in the Caesars Superdome when they host the Carolina Panthers in Week 15. Here’s what either outcome could mean for the black and gold.

If the Saints win

A victory on Sunday completes the sweep of the Panthers for the season and moves New Orleans to 3-2 in divisional games in 2025.

The emergence of Tyler Shough in recent weeks has become the story of the season in the Crescent City. A win would likely require another strong showing from him and the offense after they came up huge in last week’s...

Following a road victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the New Orleans Saints now return home, turning their sights towards a potential season sweep of fellow division opponent, the Carolina Panthers. Tyler Shough and the Saints defeated Carolina in their last meeting, 17-7.

Last week, the Panthers were on a bye week and enjoyed a crucial upset of the Bucs from the Saints. With Tampa’s loss, Carolina is now tied for the NFC South lead at 7-6, but New Orleans will have a chance to play spoiler to a team’s postseason hopes in back-to-back weeks.

An underrated player in New Orleans victory in Week 14.

After 2 weeks on the road, the New Orleans Saints return to the dome for their Week 15 matchup against the Carolina Panthers.

The Saints come into this game on a high note after defeating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24-20 last Sunday. It was a breakout game for both rookies Tyler Shough and Devin Neal, who combined for 3 rushing touchdowns. The Saints hope to build on that momentum to get their 2nd win in a row on the season.

The Good: Complimentary and Situational Football

The New Orleans Saints defense came up clutch on multiple occasions on Sunday. They held the Buccaneers to 2/7 on 4th down and kept them out of the end zone on their potential game-tying drive in the fourth quarter. On the Bucs final drive, the defense didn’t allow a single first down and clinched the game. The offense kept pace and took the lead after scoring for the third straight drive in the second half. Quarterback Tyler Shough was able to run for two touchdowns in the second half, the second of which...
