Derek Carr’s story coming into Sunday’s opener against the Titans was an interesting one—the nine-year Raider is now starting for the Saints, with a team taking its third swing at replacing franchise icon Drew Brees.
But the truth is, his is just one of many for that team. And even his offense alone.
Out there on the Superdome turf was Michael Thomas, the star receiver who’s played in just 11 games over the now four seasons since he set the NFL receptions record in 2019.

CBS announcer Ross Tucker gave quite the praise to Saints multitalented star Taysom Hill during the team’s 16–15 win over the Titans on Sunday, and fans are unsure how to feel about it.
Hill is a man of many trades on the football field. He’s listed as a tight end on the Saints’ depth chart, but he played in the running back position on Sunday. He is even listed as the third-string quarterback as he’s had experience in that role in the past.
However, when Tucker spoke highly of Hill, he compared him to Jim Thorpe, who is one of the most well-known American athletes in history.

The Southeastern Conference proudly boasts the slogan “It just means more.”
Each college football season, teams within the 14-member alliance set out to prove why the league—one that annually attracts many of the country’s most talented players—is the most dominant in the sport, with teams such as Georgia, Alabama and LSU leading the charge.

John Daly has long been a fan favorite, and also one of the funniest players in the game. He dropped another witty line this past weekend.
John Daly never ceases to amaze.
Whether drinking diet cokes on the course, enjoying a cigarette, or riding around a Champions Tour event in a golf cart, he consistently garners attention.
Last week was no different.
Daly amazed the golf world with a barefooted field goal, recreating a 50-yard field goal he drilled in St. Louis in 1992.

The first Monday of the NFL season. There’s arguably no bigger “overreaction day” on the entire sports calendar. After months of zero information (essentially), we finally saw teams on the field playing games that matter.
However, teams played just one game each. Every NFL team plays a 17-game schedule. That means that Week 1 accounts for less than 6% of the entire season.
People in the sports media are going to arrive at wild conclusions based on that small amount of information. What if you walked into a used car dealership and the salesperson said, “Hey, here’s 5.
