Trust me, Saints fans are not upset when a DA and Carr led Saints team lose, again. Live, in the moment, many of us laugh when the team fails to convert a 3rd down, or score a TD in the red zone. Even better, the drive stalls then Grupe misses the kick. Hilarious! You know why? Because that's what we have learned to expect. This is the 2nd season like this. We don't like it, and things need to change, yet management claims things aren't that bad (based on offensive yards; lol). So the fan reaction makes sense, and we are really starting to see it beyond the fan pages. Let them keep everything the same and we'll see how bad it gets next season.

New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis discusses life without Sean Payton at the helm, how Dennis Allen is ready for this promotion, what the future might hold with Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas and more. Jeff Duncan and Jim Derry co-host this special "vacation" edition of Dattitude (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.

It has been a long time since the fan base of the New Orleans Saints has been as outwardly negative as they are right now. And the ironic thing is it comes with the team in the middle of a chase for an NFC South championship with three teams tied at the top of the division.

What gives? Why do so many Who Dats think the team should just lose the rest of the way? What do they think that would accomplish? Would Coach Dennis Allen and his staff be forced to exit stage left? Would a higher draft pick come in and help be a savior? Or would it be more of the same?

As he usually does, Jim Derry weighs in on the situation and gives his take ahead of the game vs. the New York Giants – a team with a worse record whose fans have a completely different feeling. And also on the Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 198), The Athletic’s Larry Holder makes his weekly Friday appearance to share his thoughts on the Black and Gold, as the duo also previews Sunday’s game and goes through some of the big matchups in Week 15 of the NFL.

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."
