The New Orleans Saints have been on an absolute tear to start the season.

Dennis Allen’s team didn’t find much trouble getting past Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers in the season opener, and they kept the momentum going by blowing out the Dallas Cowboys in Arlington in Week 2.

Derek Carr is leading the league in passer rating and has five touchdown passes against just one interception, and Alvin Kamara is looking like the second coming of Barry Sanders.

Their defense has bullied its opposition at the line of scrimmage, and they’ve played mistake-free football for the most part.

Nonetheless, Detroit Lions star WR Amon-Ra St. Brown still isn’t that impressed by the Saints.

Talking to his brother, Equanimeous, on their podcast, he claimed that they just caught the Cowboys on one of their bad days.

St. Brown stated that the Cowboys usually alternate great games with bad ones, and that game just happened to be one of the bad ones.

Needless to say, his brother wasn’t having it, stating that it was crazy to see him discrediting the Cowboys after winning so many games with that roster over the years.

Truth be told, he might have a valid point, as the Cowboys have been fairly inconsistent and a tale of two teams, and it’s not like the Saints beating the Panthers was that impressive.

Then again, there’s no reason to think this start to the season is a fluke, and we should give flowers where they’re due.

Bears Are Reportedly Doing ‘Serious Homework’ On 1 Coaching Candidate

Interim head coach Thomas Brown hasn’t won a game, leading most to believe there is little chance he gets any consideration to be the permanent replacement. With that in mind, the Bears reportedly are looking into other possible candidates. “The Bears are looking for a ‘leader of men’ for their opening at HC, and GM Ryan Poles has been doing ‘serious homework’ on [Miami] Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver, per Dianna Russini,” JPAFootball wrote on X.

Lakers Given Notable Odds To Make NBA Finals

(Photo by Sam Hodde/Getty Images)   Because of their history and roster, the Los Angeles Lakers are always aiming to reach the NBA Finals. However, that is obviously much easier said than done. This year, the betting markets believe they have a chance of competing for a championship, but it’s not a huge one. According to Polymarket, the Lakers have an eight percent shot of going to the Finals. Even with some smart acquisitions and Luka Doncic starting his first full season with the team, the Lakers still have their work cut out for them.

Standout Packers RB Gets Nominated For Notable NFL Award

With Josh Jacobs out with a knee injury, someone would have to step up to lead the way against the Minnesota Vikings. Fortunately for them, backup RB Emanuel Wilson was more than up to the task. That’s why, after his strong performance, it’s not much of a surprise to see him being nominated for the FedEx Air and Ground Player of the Week: “Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12,” Kruse posted on X. #Packers RB Emanuel Wilson (125 total yards, 2 TDs) is a nominee for the FedEx Air and Ground Players of the Week award in Week 12. — Zach Kruse (@zachkruse2) November 24, 2025 Wilson was shifty and explosive out of the backfield. He forced missed tackles left and right, and he was a factor with his pass blocking and reliable hands in the passing game as well. It was a much-welcome per...
