There’s several better options. Not a fan of this.

Merriweather will do just fine for us as RB4.
Signing another back is just the cherry on top of the group, unless he's a replacement for Merriweather. It'll be a few more $, though.

For a #3 or 4 option, that's a decent player to bring in for a visit.

Tough runner & a decent pass catcher.

Thanks for posting the NOF broadcast! Post game analysis is not easy to come by in the UK!

A question to my fellow Saints fans!

Living in the UK i have to subscribe to NFL GamePass on NFL.com to watch the Saints games!

DAZN have taken over GamePass this season! The viewing experience was fine but not the game commentary! The only option for the game commentary was by the Chiefs commentary team even though it was a HOME game for the Saints! I didn't need to hear them drooling over their team all the time! Why was there not Saints commentary available or even an independent commentary team without bias towards the Chiefs?

Basic short answer is the league wants to promote certain teams above others. Right now Kansas City is the leagues darling.

1st team looked great. I'm concerned about our O-line at this point.

I'm the same, I was happy to see that DAZN had a bit of a better experience than Gamepass did. GP would always crash or say "content not available" for days on end.

But yeah, tuning in and watching Derek Carr throw a TD, just for Trent Green to say "how fast the LB was" that just got beat was mind-numbing.
