BY IRA KAUFMAN
Ever since Drew Brees and Sean Payton joined forces in 2006, NFL defensive coordinators haven’t slept soundly heading into Saints week.
In the past 12 seasons, New Orleans has ranked sixth or better in total offense every year, including six No. 1 finishes. Seven times in that span the Saints boasted a Top 5 scoring attack. (more…)

“He Listens”
Wednesday, August 29th, 2018
BY IRA KAUFMAN
The right knee of Donovan Smith will determine Tampa Bay’s starter at left tackle in New Orleans. If Smith is cleared by the doctors, he figures to be charged with protecting Ryan Fitzpatrick’s blind side.

Ira Kaufman’s 10 Takeaways From Bucs-Lions
Saturday, August 25th, 2018
BY IRA KAUFMAN
The Bucs came within 30 seconds of their first 3-0 preseason start since 1999, when they advanced to the NFC championship game.
Let’s not get carried away, I don’t see the second coming of Warren Sapp, Derrick Brooks or Ronde Barber out there, but I don’t see a 5-11 club, either.
