Locked On Saints - Daily Podcast On The New Orleans Saints

The NFL season kicks off for the New Orleans Saints this weekend as they "host" the Green Bay Packers in Jacksonville, FL following the relocation cause by Hurricane Ida.

The Green Bay Packers will be down David Bakhtiari and starting two new offensive lineman. Meanwhile, Cameron Jordan and Marcus Davenport will look to pin their ears back to get after Aaron Rodgers. The New Orleans Saints will look to figure out what their offense looks like with Jameis Winston under center for the first time in a full-matchup.

Ross Jackson of Locked On Saints and Peter Bukowski of Locked On Packers break down key matchups, the biggest questions, and what a win looks like for both teams. Alvin Kamra, Jameis Winston, Marshon Lattimore, and Kwon Alexander are all set to play key roles in this contest.

Today's Locked On Saints breaks down the intricacies and large changes you'll see with Jameis Winston leading the New Orleans Saints offense. Will it be perfect? Probably not. But will it be exciting? Sure looks like it.

Jameis Winston's role will be much different than Drew Brees's which affects the players around him. Erik McCoy making protection calls, Alvin Kamara perhaps more involved from the slot, and lots of play action, which asks more of the offensive line. Breaking it all down from a procedural vantage point to start the show.

Then, looking at three major route concepts used in Sean Payton's offense and how they will look different not just with Jameis Winston but with Marquez Callaway, Tre'Quan Smith, and Deonte Harris. And soon with Michael Thomas.

Then, host Ross Jackson closes out the show with a look at five storylines to watch before Week 1 against the Green Bay Packers. What will happen with Marshon Lattimore and Deonte Harris to start the season? Who will line up next to Demario Davis at linebacker? Will we get a look at a fully improved Jameis Winston? Five questions to we all seek the answers to as the Saints get ready for Week 1 NFL action.

The New Orleans Saints could end up with the best of both worlds. A strong-armed and improved passer in Jameis Winston and an unlocked offensive weapon with Taysom Hill. If all goes well, these two can go from competitors to dynamic duo.

Taysom Hill's run style is best suited for a catch and run role, his pass-catching acumen is best where Jameis Winston wants to throw, and his change of pace QB play could be more unpredictable. All in addition to his usual effectiveness as a redzone and third down bruising option.

Unfortunate news around former New Orleans Saint David Patten, and what to do about getting your tickets to New Orleans vs Green Bay Packers in Jacksonville.

The New Orleans Saints and Green Bay Packers will play their game in Jacksonville, FL following the impact of Hurricane Ida in the Gulf Region. In preparing for that matchup, the Saints have already begun to shuffle their roster and fill out their practice squad.

Jim Trotter of NFL.com and NFL Network joins to talk about the Saints' decision to start Jameis Winston as their 2021 quarterback, why Taysom Hill deserves some love, and what the Saints will look like with Jameis under center.

Jim also just can't understand why people expect the New Orleans Saints to fall off this year with all of the talent still on the roster including the leadership and all-pro level play of linebacker Demario Davis, the rising star Marquez Callaway, and one of the NFL's best in Alvin Kamara.

NFL roster cuts have finally come and gone as teams set their initial 53-man rosters. For the New Orleans Saints, this is only the start of the team-building process ahead of week one against the Green Bay Packers. On today's Locked On Saints, Ross breaks down the initial 53 and the moves to expect going forward.

Will the Saints send any of the multiple injured reserve candidates to IR like Adam Trautman, Nick Vannett, or Wil Lutz? Will they pursue a different kicker off of waivers with Jake Verity having been waived? The linebacker room is a little crowded with both Chase Hansen and Andrew McDowell making the cut, could that decision be indicative of Kwon Alexander's availability early in the season? So many questions to ask, but some good news to celebrate with fan-favorites Tony Jones Jr, and Juwan Johnson making the roster.

Sean Payton also had some big news to drop on Tuesday. The Saints have officially announced Jameis Winston as their starting quarterback and what Taysom Hill's role will look like in the 2021 NFL season. The team also looks to heard to TCU, where many players have Louisiana roots, to continue their practice week in preparation to open their season as a currently undisclosed location with the Cesars Superdome currently not being an option.

The New Orleans Saints have already made some tough decisions with some notable roster cuts. But in the cases of Alex Armah, Easop Winston, and Kawann Baker, no doesn't mean never. How the roster rules work and could benefit the Saints as they look to potentially add players like Wil Lutz, Michael Thomas, Tre'Quan Smith, and Adam Trautman to injured reserve.

There have already been some notable roster moves that impact the New Orleans Saints. Could they look to reunite Jameis Winston and Breshad Perriman? And one key roster move that keeps the Saints from addressing a premiere position.

The Saints could be on the move for the first regular season game of the 2021 season against the Green Bay Packer, but out west won't be the solution. Sean Payton discusses potential options for the team. Meanwhile, more roster cuts are expected. Which to look out for within and outside of the organization.

The New Orleans Saints, like many of their community have relocated in the midst of Hurricane Ida. Here's their plan while in Dallas, TX and what happens moving forward.

The Saints have to cut their rosters down to 53 by 4pm ET on Tuesday the 31st. We're projecting the initial 53 in our final roster prediction episode. Tony Jones Jr, Chase Hansen vs. Andrew McDowell, cornerback #2. Jameis Winston will need targets to throw to, which wide receivers can hold down a roster spot and contribute behind Marquez Callaway. Marshon Lattimore is looking for a new deal, can the Saints make it happen before Week 1? Growing expectation on suspensions for Deonte Harris and Lattimore could change the direction of the roster even after it's initially set. Michael Thomas's injury could be a factor, too along with Adam Trautman and Nick Vannett.

So many big storylines around this team. We break it down to provide you some solace in what might be a tough day.

The New Orleans Saints naming Jameis Winston their starting quarterback was the right choice to make. Locked On Saints host Ross Jackson breaks down why the decision was made, what Winston showed on and off the field to edge out Taysom Hill, and why Mike Martz wasn't just visiting for a cafe au lait.

What does Jameis Winston at quarterback mean for Alvin Kamara, Marquez Callaway, the offensive line, and Taysom Hill? It's not just about who takes the snaps, there are several big pieces that are impacted by the quarterback selection. Here's an introduction as to what Sean Payton and the gang can now do.

Saturday's preseason game against the Arizona Cardinals has moved to Noon CT in preparation of Hurricane Ida. Winston might have won his job, but other players are fighting for positioning and roster spots during this game. Can Kevin White get right? Will Pete Werner or Kwon Alexander see the field? Marcus Davenport's development this offseason has been remarkable, one more chance to display how much he's grown. And many more players jostling for positioning along the New Orleans Saints depth chart ahead of Tuesday's final roster cut down.
