Saints GM Mickey Loomis talks candidly with Jeff Duncan and Jim Derry on Ep. 79

Saints Hall of Fame Coach Jim Mora talks about his road to New Orleans, his days leading the Black and Gold, Sam Mills going into the Pro Football Hall of Fame last week, the toughness of Rickey Jackson, and how this current defense stacks up against his Dome Patrol.

Jim Mora talks about his days as Saints coach, Sam Mills, Dome Patrol, Ep. 83

We told you last week there were signs Tyler Shough is the leader in the New Orleans Saints race for QB1 over Spencer Rattler, and our opinion hasn’t changed. One preseason loss to the Los Angeles Chargers did nothing to change that.

But what do fans think? Host Jim Derry hears from the Dat Family on another Mano E Monday edition of the Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 401) presented by Evangeline Securities. Did they agree, and is anyone changing their opinion on ANYTHING after an exhibition game?

Jim has ‘Derry’s Dimes’ and also talks about his concern at the injuries the Saints suffered Sunday, especially with Trevor Penning and Will Clapp on the offensive line. What does our neutral observer, Gabe Henderson, think? Is there a race at kicker between Blake Grupe and Charlie Smyth? And was the defense simply too vanilla to learn anything from? 

Chargers 27, Saints 13 ... First preseason game takeways from Saints fans and Shough-Rattler talk on Ep. 401

Dattitude premiered in September 2021 to focus on what's important to sports fans in south Louisiana. While we focus on the Saints, we also talk plenty about the Pelicans, LSU, Tulane, Prep, sports betting, fantasy sports and all the big-time sports events happening in and around New Orleans. Host Jim Derry brings more than 33 years of experience covering sports in the region, and he'll "always tell you the way it is ... or at least the way he THINKS it is."
