This week we’re working through some frustrations as the New Orleans Saints take their sweet time addressing what went wrong in 2022, and taking a bit of a look ahead at what’s in store for 2023. We’re also touching on the ongoing Sean Payton sweepstakes, with the Saints’ inactivity allowing Payton to dominate the news cycle. This episode was recorded prior to New Orleans’ controversial decision to hang onto offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael, which we’ll touch on next week.

This week we’re recapping the Saints’ Week 11 win over the Los Angeles Rams, in which they found a winning formula by rotating Andy Dalton and Taysom Hill in and out of the lineup at quarterback. But is it sustainable against better squads like their Week 12 opponent, the San Francisco 49ers?

This week we’re reflecting on Dennis Allen’s 3-7 start to the season and his long odds of turning things around, and why the Saints have already seen plenty of reason to move on from him (or at least many fans have) after setting such high expectations over the summer. We’re also looking at the quarterback situation and previewing Week 11’s game with the Los Angeles Rams, who have fallen to 3-6 amid a Super Bowl hangover.
