There’s no question the Saints have played like a different team the past couple weeks under interim coach Darren Rizzi. The big question is can they continue the magic after the bye week with games against stiffer competition such as the Los Angeles Rams, Washington Commanders and Green Bay Packers?

Is Jim Derry lightening up on his “0.0 percent chance of making the playoffs?” We’ll find out on Thursday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 313) presented by Evangeline Securities, as he asks the viewers and listeners what they think, as well. Also, Jim talks about LSU and where they stand with Coach Brian Kelly before coming home to play Vanderbilt on Saturday.

We also welcome in Gabe Henderson to hear his top play, as well as Uncle Big Nick and his weekly five best bets. The team also previews Indiana at Ohio State and a few other top games, including Ole Miss vs. Florida in college football and Lions vs. Colts, Ravens vs. Chargers and Packers vs. 49ers in the NFL.
