It’s like you’re throwing cards up in the air every season to see where they fall, while you’re surrounded by genius poker players. Seems to be the prevalent accepted fan culture of the current Saints. Sad.

Waiting to see how the cards fall, just like you. Tough to make any predictions when the hands throwing the cards (and the football) are this weak.

Miller's durability remains a question mark.

Training camp spotlight: Willie Gay Jr. vs. Pete Werner

There is no more prominent battle at New Orleans Saints training camp than that between linebackers Willie Gay Jr. versus Pete Werner. The two will fight it out for who joins Demario Davis on the field in nickel packages. As we transition into spotlighting the defensive battles, it becomes clearer the stakes are higher on this side of the ball. All the defensive battles are for starting positions, while most of the competition on offense is about setting the depth chart.

Gay came to New Orleans as a free agent this offseason and was quickly slotted in as the favorite to win this battle for some. Werner is coming off a down year and so is Gay. His struggles were in Kansas City, though, so Gay still gets the new kid on the block treatment. He’s also eager to prove his struggles are more tied to lack of usage than ability.

The most eye-popping difference between the two linebackers is the speed Gay brings to the position. The Saints defense lacked this element in 2023. Werner may have experienced some struggles last year, but he’s been pretty steady throughout his career. He isn’t a big-time playmaker but he has been a solid player for most of his career. That could be just what the Saints need next to Davis given Werner’s inconsistencies.

When the pads come on, pay close attention to this battle at training camp.

Quote of the Day ... Penning either figures it out or have a seat on the bench.

DE Cam Jordan spent time talking to T Trevor Penning during practice, said he is trying to help him get it right, right now. Said it is year 3 time to figure it out. #SaintsCamp

AMEN to that.

As for Carr getting injured, he's only missed two games in his career due to injury. That's two out of 161 total games. He one of the most durable QB's in the NFL today. There's no reason to suspect the likelihood of his missing games anymore so than any other QB in the league. Far less likely, in fact.

I agree except wouldn't go so hard as "couldn't hold his jock". My view is they are not at his level. Not even a year close. Both seem to have great potential.

Note I said "at this point of their careers". Two or three years of sitting, watching, and learning like Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love and they may be ready.

If they’re learning from Carr at this point in their careers, his jock is about all they’ll be left holding, while someone else will be holding a Lombardi.

No. The practices in Irvine are without fans. There will be two practices here in Louisiana that will be open to fans, however.

I agree. Would like to see Cam Ward here next year though in my honest opinion
