If Chris Olave had held onto the game-winning TD pass against the Dolphins... 1,392 passing yards (232 YPG) 69.6% completion percentage, 7.6 YPA 126 rushing yards (21 YPG) 7 touchdown passes, 2 touchdown runs 4 interceptions, 2 fumbles, 20 sacks 4-2 as a starter. Ah well

How did the Saints upset the Panthers in Week 15's final seconds? By leaning on a young quarterback who continues to deliver when it matters most. | via @Coach_Loffredo saintswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Beating the Panthers was worth sliding down a few spots in the 2026 NFL draft, but how far? Here's where the New Orleans Saints are projected to pick. saintswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Several players stood out in the Saints' thrilling last-second win against the Panthers, but one in particular took his game to another level. | via Bob Rose saintswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Tyler Shough across six starts: 1,356 passing yards (226 YPG) 126 rushing yards (21 YPG) 6 touchdown passes, 2 touchdown runs 4 interceptions, 2 fumbles 20 sacks 3-3 as a starter.

Some Saints win-loss records after Week 15: Tyler Shough: 3-3 Kellen Moore: 4-10 Mickey Loomis without Sean Payton: 53-76

With a 4-10 record, the Saints are now picking 7th overall in the 2026 NFL draft. They own a strength of schedule tiebreaker over the Washington Commanders and Cincinnati Bengals.

The broadcast playing Shipping Up To Boston to close us out lmfao

A Tyler Shough touchdown pass would both win this game and break Archie Manning's team record for the most TD passes in a rookie season, btw

Philip Rivers trailing late and close with the ball makes me feel 15 years younger

Chris Olave accounted for 63 of those 78 yards, and the TD

With the Titans trailing late by multiple scores, looks like a loss to the Panthers means Saints will stay at the 5th pick. They would move to 7th with a comeback win.

Time to put Dillon Radunz in the torture nexus

With Devaughn Vele (shoulder) questionable to return, this would be a great time for Chris Olave to catch another ball. He has a 7-yard reception off of two targets today.

I can't believe that Khristian Boyd and John Ridgeway would offer the Saints less in run defense than Nathan Shepherd and Jonathan Bullard. Playing old guys and giving up 100+ yards a week just doesn't make sense.

Devaugh Vele on third down this year: 7 of 11 for 87 yards, 6 first downs.

The Saints capped their longest drive since the year 2000 with a Devin Neal touchdown run. He wasn't alive the last time they covered this much ground. | via @Coach_Loffredo saintswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Devaughn Vele is who A.T. Perry was supposed to be.

Jason Benetti: "The Saints are the worst fourth down team in the NFL." Luke Fortner (67 career starts) and Cesar Ruiz (90 career starts) both jump. False start. Punt.

What's the word on the new Saints-Panthers injury report? Here's what you need to know about Devin Neal, Alvin Kamara, and Jaycee Horn. saintswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Doubtful Alvin Kamara plays this Sunday if he can't practice tomorrow. Leaves him with just three games to go in 2025. His salary cap hit is third-highest on the team in 2026 ($18.6M) and almost entirely guaranteed ($18.2M). He'll have a decision to make in the spring.

Tyler Shough made some big plays with his legs against the Bucs, but it was one of his last throws which left a lasting impression on the opposing sideline: 'I think he's going to be pretty good' saintswire.usatoday.com/story/sports...
