PODCAST: Saints run defense streak should survive Chargers, but beware Justin Herbet

The New Orleans Saints had an impressive road win over the Detroit Lions added to their resume, but Justin Herbert and the Chargers are next

We’re already into the sixth episode of the Saints Wire Podcast, hosted by Ryan O’Leary (@RyanOLearySMG on Twitter) with Saints Wire managing editor John Sigler (@john_siglerr). You can subscribe to new episodes (released each Thursday) on Apple Podcasts or your podcast service of choice.

This week, we’re looking back on the New Orleans Saints’ impressive road win over the Detroit Lions, while also taking stock of some injury situations to starters ahead of Week 5’s prime-time matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The Saints offense is starting to fire on all cylinders, but a lot hinges on whether keystone players like right tackle Ryan Ramczyk and wide receiver Michael Thomas can return before the bye week. And can their historically-great run defense keep up the pace against wild-card rookie quarterback Justin Herbert and the Bolts?

So be sure to subscribe and tune in with us each Thursday. You can check the archive of previous Saints Wire podcast episodes where we’ve embedded it below:
