Where do the New Orleans Saints place in the post-Super Bowl NFL power rankings? Most outlets still have them in the NFC South's basement, but that isn't saying much when the whole division stinks.

Klint Kubiak barely had to time to celebrate his Super Bowl win before moving on to his next job. One of his first hires could be a former Saints coach.

Someone get us Kevin Harlan's radio call of the Super Bowl fan on the field. I guarantee you it's better than Mike Tirico's disdain.

Love that Pokemon commercial because it's absolutely correct about every single Pokemon being someone's favorite Pokemon

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”
Renee Good's partner addresses Minneapolis immigration crackdown one month after killing
Becca Good has seldom spoken out since Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Jan. 7.

This is a great piece. Loved this anecdote.
Pioli: Another player that we brought from the Patriots to the Chiefs is Ryan O'Callaghan. In 2011, he came out to me that he was gay. He didn't come out publicly for another six years. He had told me, "Scott, I need you to keep this secret." The day that that article came out in Outsports by Cyd Zeigler, I heard from two former players from the Chiefs: Ryan Lilja, one of the offensive linemen, and Mike Vrabel. Mike said, "Is he OK? Can I please get his contact information? I need to check on him." Now, everyone sees Mike Vrabel, tough guy. And he is tough to the death, and he's a man's man and all of that crap. But Mike just wanted to make sure Ryan was OK. That's Mike Vrabel.

What does being a team's Most Valuable Player mean, anyway? Not missing a snap? Making a bunch of sacks or throwing the most touchdowns? Our staff writers shared their picks for the 2025 Saints MVP.

I liked what Estime did last year. Ideally he'll be competing for a spot with Devin Neal and Kendre Miller behind Alvin Kamara and Jeremiyah Love. But I'd add another rusher in free agency, too. Can't assume Love will be there at 8.
