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

As the New Orleans Saints shift their focus from the preseason and the cutdown to a 53-man roster, they made a few moves since Tuesday. Will the trade for John Ridgeway improve the defensive line, and how does the addition of ex-Vikings specialist Kene Nwangwu affect the team?

The good news is CBs Marshon Lattimore and Kool-Aid McKinstry returned to practice, as well as WR Rashid Shaheed. Will there be a few more before the Saints open the regular season at home in the Dome against the Carolina Panthers on Sept. 8?

Host Jim Derry talks about that, and he previews LSU’s season-opening game in Las Vegas against the USC Trojans on Sunday and Tulane starting with Southeastern on Thursday at Yulman on Thursday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 271) presented by Evangeline Securities. Bet.NOLA.com’s Tom Casale and Gabe Henderson are here to help break it down and offer a few plays for Week 1 of the college football season.

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."
