The New Orleans Saints will go into the 2024 season in a strange position: not favored in the NFC South. Instead, it most likely will be the Atlanta Falcons? Who should it be, and why not the defending-champ Tampa Bay Bucs?

Jim Derry brings on Doug Mouton to talk about it on Friday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 225) presented by Evangeline Securities, as they also talk about the Pelicans, who do the job on the road (again). Can they win their final two games and clinch the 6 seed in the NBA West to avoid the Play-In Tournament? And, wow, Zion Williamson and CJ McCollum have turned things on with Brandon Ingram out.

Jim finishes the show with his ‘Extra Point,’ which focuses on how The Masters has not been kind to Hall of Famer Greg Norman – both 37 years ago today – and this week.
