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

Sure, the New Orleans Saints defeated the Arizona Cardinals in Saturday’s preseason opener in the desert, but what does it really mean? There were some positives (Jake Haener, Spencer Rattler, Chase Young, Willie Gay and the defense), but there some negatives, too (Trevor Penning and the first-string offense).

How much should we put stock into these little snippets of time? We hear from Coach Dennis Allen, who is more candid than one might have expected, and share our opinions on all these topics, including a long debate with listeners on Haener vs. “The Rat Train.” Is the hype on Rattler a bit much? What about the kicker battle between Blake Grupe and Charlie Smyth?

Host Jim Derry talks to and with the audience, and it’s time for “Mondays with Gabe Henderson” on the Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 265) presented by Evangeline Securities. Jim finishes the show with his “Extra Point” that looks at other young quarterbacks around the league who also might be getting their own hype.

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."
