Ep. 94 - Recapping the F'in Falcons Game - The blame game resurfaces but is it warranted yet?

Welp. That one sucked. Losing to ANY team when you score three TD's and allow NONE is always a tough pill, but especially against the damn falcons. With that loss, of course, has come renewed ire against both DA and Derek Carr, but...is that really warranted or is it really the issue at this point? We had absolutely no issue driving the #FireDennisAllen train last season, but can you really put the past two losses squarely on poor coaching or poor play from Derek Carr? The team's quality of play certainly paints a much different picture than what we saw out of last year's squad. Our opinion is that the mistakes in this game, at least, were so egregious (Shaheed's muffed punt, Adebo's PI) or "flukey" (Carr's pass dropping perfectly into a LB's hands), that you can't start sounding the "FIRE THE COACH" or "BENCH THE QB" alarms at this point. We get into that issue and a whole lot more, including an overall look at how this loss and the upcoming schedule sets the Saints up - or makes it more difficult - to end that playoff drought. LISTEN IN! WHO DAT?!

Ep. 93 | PREDICTIONS - SAINTS VS. FALCONS - BEACH EPISODE - Recorded "On Location"...

It's the first #FalconsHateWeek of the 2024 Season, and we're bringing you our quick-hitting predictions episode. Do we all predict a win? Especially with the team riddled with injuries. BUT the distance our Saints could gain in the division with a win is HUGE, so....do they use that as enough motivation to overcome the adversity and pull it out? ALSO, we recorded this one on our annual beach trip, so...this one was recorded "live" in front of 7-8 of our long-time friends, which "may" include a special appearance at the end of the episode of "Carl J." but...who is "Carl J?" One way to definitely hear the "Carl J" audio is by joining our Patreon! at Patreon.com/28to3podcast - one of the many benefits of joining. Either way, LISTEN IN and BEAT THE FALCONS! WHO DAT?!

Ep. 92 | RECAP Saints vs. Eagles - What really went wrong? and how we feel moving forward

There's no denying Sunday's loss to the Eagles was a tough one to stomach. Adding insult to injury was our best offensive lineman and team captain Erik McCoy going down to a lengthy injury in the process. That said, it's hard to say there were not positives in this one, for instance, the defense allowed only 15 points to what is supposed to be a top shelf NFL offense, but...the same defense wasn't able to lock up the game in the closing minutes. There's also some criticism of Klint Kubiak's playcalling. Is it warranted, or was there truly no scheme or variety of play calls that could have overcome the complete ineptitude we saw from the offensive line, which, yes, was a mash unit on Sunday even with one injury to a starter. We get into all of those questions and more in this one. LISTEN IN! WHO DAT?!

Ep. 91 | Saints vs. Eagles PREDICTIONS

Our Saints look to take the 2-0 barn-burning momentum back to the DOME as they take on the Eagles, and in honor of the Saints NINETY-ONE points scored in those two games, we bring you our NINETY-FIRST Episode. (How about that for coincidences. We did not plan this. Clearly). So, as we do before the games, we bring yall our game PREDICTIONS from each co-hosts, including offensive and defensive MVP picks. LISTEN IN to hear who you think will be right, and who may have some surprising picks. WHO DAT?!

Ep. 90 | COWBOYS BEAT DOWN RECAP - WHO DAT?!

Man, what an epic beat down of the Cowgirls in their own house! There were so many good things to talk about in this one, we won't even attempt to put it in this description. We get into everything that stood out in the best possible way in this one - which was a TON. But...it wouldn't be the 28 to 3 Podcast if we didn't bring up at least SOME things that cause disagreement and debate between the co-hosts. Such as, with all this newfound offensive success, ARE there things that still concern us with the offense moving forward? We debate that. Also, is AK back to being "old AK"? or do we still need something more from the RB position? Either way, this was a road win for the ages considering all the uncertainty this preseason. It's still Week 2, but great starts are monumental. Let's keep it going! WHO DAT?!

Ep. 89 | Saints vs. Cowboys PREDICTIONS

Our Saints march into Jerry World in the Big D on Sunday for a huge matchup against the Dallas COWGIRLS. It’s our first matchup of the season against an NFC contend, so the big question after a beatdown of a lesser opponent is: Will we see our guys go toe to toe with the Cowgirls, taking much of that firepower from last week into this week? - Or, will it be more of what we saw last year, ie “look good” against bad teams/lose to the good teams? Maybe something in between? Listen in to this one to hear our takes on this! As always in our preview eps, we handout score and W/L predictions along with Offensive and Defensive MVP, BUT, as you’ll notice, we’re hitting these preview eps in a much quicker way and much more condensed format. It’s 15-20 minutes, get into the predictions, MVP picks, maybe quick commentary on each others picks and sign off to start hyping up for the upcoming game. We think you’ll enjoy the short format of these prediction/preview epsisodes. LISTEN IN! WHO DAT?!

Ep. 88 | HURRICANE EPISODE, plus Recap of Saints beatdown of Panthers, AND the RETURN of Nick "Overhill"

As perhaps only a New Orleans based, Saints podcast would do, we took some time while hunkering down waiting for Hurricane Francine to roll through to jump on remotely and talk Saints! Also, after a great episode with Jono Barnes #ThisShitMoreThanAGame while Nick was away, Nick, now known as Nick OVERHILL made his triumphant return. It was our first chance to truly recap the Saints Beatdown of the Panthers among the three of us, and we also took our time waiting for the power to go out to go off on some other random Saints tangents, make some presidential debate references, long forgotten Saints draft "misses", plus more. LISTEN IN for a good, hurricane hunker down edition episode. WHO DAT?!

Ep. 87 | JONO BARNES joins the POD - AGAIN

Typically after a game we do a RECAP pod, and we do discuss the Saints' beat down of the Panthers, but with one of our favorite friends of the pod in town, we thought it was a great opportunity to get in some THIS SHIT MORE THAN A GAME energy and have JONO BARNES drop in to 28 to 3 Studios and talk all things Saints, recap the Panthers game, talk about the upcoming Cowboys matchup and really just shoot the shit and have a good time. We had Jono on the pod (for his first 28 to 3 guest appearance) last year before the Patriots game and it was one of our best episodes, so this one promises to be no different. PLUS, like he did last time, be sure to listen to the end of this one, as COACH Jono Barnes gives our Saints a "pregame speech" as only he can do it, much like he did before last year's Patriots game. LISTEN IN for a fun episode. WHO DAT?!

Ep. 86 | SAINTS VS. PANTHERS PREVIEW POD

The Saints season opener is finally upon us, as the Panthers come into the DOME on Sunday at noon. After an offseason FULL of both speculation and consternation, which seemed to have drug on forever, we FINALLY get to see the full product of the new Klint Kubiak offense, paired with what has always been a solid Dennis Allen defense...or....at least that's what we are "expecting" to see on Sunday, but would we be correct in that expectation? Do we think we'll still see some of the glaring issues of the O-line thwart any "best laid plans" our new OC has? Or - do we think the team's work in the offseason will show us a product on Sunday that looks much different than last season and shows that they have something that can bring us a winning product? We break all of it down in this one and each give our opinions on what we think we can expect in this Week 1, Season Opening, DOME Opening matchup against the Carolina Panthers. LISTEN IN! WHO DAT?!

Ep. 85 | SAINTS SEASON PREVIEW and HOT TAKES!!

It’s that time of year where we roll out our comprehensive preview of how we think this Saints season sets up. We go in depth into each position group, what we think we can expect and what we think the team’s overall record will be when it’s all said and done. PLUS, no season preview episode would be complete without our annual FEARLESS PREDICTIONS/28 to 3 Pod HOT TAKES. We definitely brought some interesting ones in this one, with a couple sprinkled in along the way. LISTEN IN! WHO DAT?!
