The New Orleans Saints are headed up to Green Bay for a potential snow game without, most likely, their starting quarterback, running back or either top wide receiver. What could go wrong? On the latest episode of the Audacy original Inside Black & Gold podcast Saints sideline reporter Jeff Nowak and WWL Sports Director Steve Geller break down the latest injury news for Chris Olave, Alvin Kamara and Derek Carr and why the Saints don’t seem interested in shutting down their veteran QB. We also hear from Packers insider Jason B. Hirschhorn on what to expect from the Packers and a lot more. 

SEGMENT 1: Saints Injury Rundown: Chris Olave is Back, Alvin Kamara Might be Done

… The New Orleans Saints’ injury carousel never ends. The good news: Chris Olave is back to practice after missing 6 weeks on IR. The bad news: Alvin Kamara might just be done for the year with his groin injury. We’ll kick off today’s episode by breaking down the latest on those injuries, the Derek Carr situation (plus a bit of confusion) and the addition of a fan-favorite RB in Clyde Edwards-Helaire. 

SEGMENT 2: Can Saints survive a snow game? Packers insider breaks down Week 16

… The New Orleans Saints are headed up to Green Bay for a game that might just have some snow. But what would it actually look like? Jeff Nowak and Steve Geller are joined for this preview edition of Inside Black & Gold by Jason B. Hirschhorn, Packers reporter and co-founder of The Leap Newsletter.

SEGMENT 3: Spencer Rattler will start IF Derek Carr Can’t Go, But Why Is It a Question At All?

… The New Orleans Saints have an obvious choice in front of them with a quarterback managing a broken left hand, but to this point they refuse to close the Derek Carr door. But why? We hear from Darren Rizzi and dive into the background philosophy driving so many of these decisions, then break down our expectations for Spencer Rattler, who is most likely in line to make his fourth career NFL start – and hopefully it can go better than the first three.

The New Orleans Saints didn’t beat the Commanders this week, but they made sure the finish was worth the price of admission. On the latest episode of the Audacy original Inside Black & Gold podcast, Saints sideline reporter Jeff Nowak and WWL Sports Director Steve Geller lay out the studs and duds from Sunday in the Superdome, dive into the very different days for Spencer Rattler and Jake Haener, then answer live mailbag questions after Week 15. 

SEGMENT 1: Picking Studs from Saints-Commanders: Rattler’s Rally Gives Spark

… The New Orleans Saints lost to the Commanders, so why are we acting all positive? Well, a lot comes down to a very positive showing for rookie Spencer Rattler, who took over at halftime and engineered a rally from 17-0 to give the Saints a shot in the final seconds. We’ll break down what went right and what went wrong for the QB kid, another strong day for Kendre Miller, a defensive line that’s suddenly feasting, Foster Moreau’s redemption moment and a lot more. 

SEGMENT 2: Picking Duds From Saints-Commanders: Haener Has Nightmare Day

… OK, that was rough. The day started with optimism for one young QB in Jake Haener, but it ended with a halftime benching and frustration. So what went wrong for the Haen train? We’ll break it down, along with an OL group that’s continuing to scuffle and kickoff coverage suddenly a weakness.

SEGMENT 3: Saints-Commanders Mailbag: Is Chase Young Earning a Big Payday?

… We close out today’s Inside Black & Gold by diving into live viewer questions following the Saints’ 20-19 loss to the Commanders. We’ll hit on Chase Young’s late-season surge and whether the Saints should be ready to break the bank, more on Jake Haener and Spencer Rattler’s very different days, the final 2-point call and more.

SEGMENT 2: Commanders Insider Breaks Down What Saints Should Expect in Week 15
