Locked On Saints - Daily Podcast On The New Orleans Saints

The New Orleans Saints are looking to get healthier but the Dallas Cowboys have their own concerns. How health will play a major factor in Thursday's matchup and more on Taysom Hill's contract including how it saves the Saints money in 2022 and the long road to the full $95M payout.

Alvin Kamara, Mark Ingram, and Ryan Ramczyk have all returned to practice according to local media, but Terron Armstead was missing again after having returned last week. Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys are dealing with an outbreak which has led to eight players/coaches (so far) heading to reserve lists, including Head Coach Mike McCarthy.

Another in-depth look at Taysom Hill's contract and how it saves the Saints money in 2022 and the long road to cashing out as much money as possible from the $95M version of his hybrid deal.

Taysom Hill needs to the New Orleans Saints' starting quarterback moving froward. Trevor Siemian now 0-4 as the Saints starter.

With the New Orleans Saints' season threatening to go out with a whimper, the Saints should be starting Taysom Hill at quarterback. Siemian has been on of the NFL's most inefficient passers throughout his four starts, the Saints should see what they can build around Taysom without a competition in play, and there's no reason to not try something new at this point. Barring further injury, this team should be Taysom Hill's moving forward.

Why hasn't Hill been starting these last two games as opposed to being the emergency QB? And how much does Taysom truly impact Sean Payton and the Saints' opportunity to get back to their winning ways? New Orleans is dealing with a ton of injuries, but with Siemian unable to elevate the offense as available, Taysom's element of the run game paired with a hopefully healthy Alvin Kamara and/or Mark Ingram in the near future provides the team with something to lean on.

With Deonte Harris' 3-game suspension impending, what's the realistic expectation for the Saints in their final six games? A key element around the quarterback position seems to make three of the six look winnable, and those would be a very important set of three wins for the Saints' offseason.

New Orleans Saints and Buffalo Bills have both been struggling recently dropping winnable games and just not producing up to their expectations.

Can Sean Payton lead the Saints in an improbable win over the Bills with Alvin Kamara, Ryan Ramczyk, and others out against this week and with Mark Ingram on the mend as a gametime decision along with Terron Armstead?

Can the Buffalo Bills limit their habitual mental errors in an unwelcoming environment that will be pumped up by the honoring of Drew Brees at half time?

Joe Marino of Locked on Bills joins to break it all down on this Thanksgiving Crossover Thursday edition.

To get you all caught up on everything you need to know before the final injury report releases, it's time to run through the injury report such as updating the status of running backs Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara, roster moves like return of Kevin White, and whether or not the addition of WR and former Navy QB Malcolm Perry could be an immediate contributor after arriving in New Orleans on Tuesday.

How the New Orleans Saints are looking health-wise heading into their Thanksgiving showdown against the Buffalo Bills. Will Alvin Kamara, Terron Armstead, Ryan Ramczyk, and others make their returns? How New Orleans deals with the loss of Adam Trautman after his career-best game.

The Saints defense struggled against the Eagles run defense, but also lost contain several times on Jalen Hurts. What went wrong could be telling for future struggles against mobile quarterbacks, and gives context to previous issues as well. Plus more numbers on how the Saints loss fell out.

Mark Ingram's day was tainted by an unfortunate fumble, a past issue for the Saints' all-time rushing leader. But despite the fumble, he had a very successful day on the ground averaging a whopping 5.5 yards per carry and a versatile run distribution chart. The Bills have carried a similar level of production to the Eagles in the run game, which could spell good things for Ingram, and Kamara if he's able to make his return.

The New Orleans Saints and Taysom Hill have agreed to a contract extension keeping the dynamic playmaker in New Orleans for the next four season. The contract amount will be dependent upon what position he plays moving forward.

Taysom Hill's 4-year $40M deal could escalate to as high as $95M if he becomes the Saints' starting quarterback in 2022 and beyond. Hill will also see $22.5M of guaranteed money in either iteration. The New Orleans Saints, Mickey Loomis, and cap guru Khai Hartley have put together another innovative way to maintain a top weapon.

The Saints are not new to cap gymnastics and creative approaches to new contracts. They innovated a new way to handle fifth-year options with Marshon Lattimore's contract before his extension and the infancy of this wrinkle can be found in right tackle Ryan Ramczyk's extension which includes incentives if he makes 1st-team all-pro at left tackle as opposed to his natural position on the right side.

This is a very interesting deal for Taysom Hill and the Saints, but does it mean anything in the immediate future? Could this be a signal of the Saints wanting to look at Taysom at signal caller now before those incentives could kick in in 2022? Or will there be more complications to get him in the position this year?

The New Orleans Saints offense led by Trevor Siemian is having trouble getting off the ground. Should the Saints consider a shift to Taysom Hill?

The New Orleans Saints offense hasn't been the same all of the 2021 NFL season. Sean Payton's offense has stuttered coming out of the gate with both Jameis Winston and Trevor Siemian at quarterback. But now without the arm talent of Winston, the Saints are struggling until defense lighten up in the fourth quarter with a lead. Now, the Saints may want to consider another change at quarterback in favor of Taysom Hill. Hill's dynamic presence, if healthy, could be what the Saints need at this point in the year to turn around their three game losing streak.

As the offense improves, so can the defense. Or at leas the circumstances they've had to navigate. Why has the Saints defense struggled in their three losses? Situational play and the run game have put them back on their heels with an offense that's struggled to produce.

Marcus Williams, Marcus Davenport, Tre'Quan Smith, and Adam Trautman all find ways to generate positivity despite a third consecutive loss. Even losses deserve game balls when the performances are right.

The New Orleans Saints are no strangers to injury this season. Alvin Kamara, Terron Armstead, and Ryan Ramczyk could all be unavailable for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. 

If that happens, the Saints likely won't shy away from the run game with mark Ingram and the potential return of Tony Jones Jr. Saints sixth-round draft pick Landon Young could see time behind Ramczyk, which gives the team the opportunity to see what he looks like at the position in case Ramczyk ever moves to left tackle in the near future.

The Saints have not had the most explosive passing offense in 2021. But could they finally get a wide receiver to over 100 yards for the first time this season? Tre'Quan Smith usually has a big breakout game or two each season, this Philadelphia Eagles defense is weak exactly where it benefits him in the passing game. Additionally, this would be a good matchup for the tight ends to have a get right game as well.

In order for the Saints to pull out a win in Philly and end their two-game losing streak, they'll need to contain Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, force the run game to go through the running backs, and continue to take away the big passing plays over the top of the defense. Meanwhile, the Saints offense will need to focus on taking what's given to them and finding a way to outrun the run-heavy home team.
