With the New Orleans Saints on their bye week, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the season and assess the team’s performance. Although the Saints currently sit at 2-8, clearly out of playoff contention, they managed a crucial win over the Carolina Panthers in Week 10. With only seven games left in the season, their chances of a postseason berth are slim, but there are still positive stories to celebrate — none more notable than the continued dominance of defensive star Cam Jordan.
Despite the team’s struggles, Jordan has been a consistent force on the field, continuing to add to his legacy as one of the league’s best pass rushers. After 10 games, Jordan already has 3 sacks on the season, a total that puts him on pace to surpass his 2023 performance, where he recorded 4 sacks. His potential to achieve his best sack total since his 8-sack season in 2022 remains high.
“I’M 36, BUT I FEEL LIKE I’M PLAYING MY BEST FOOTBALL SINCE 2022. IT’S ABOUT STAYING HUNGRY, STAYING HEALTHY, AND KEEPING MY EYE ON THE NEXT MILESTONE. THE RECORDS WILL COME, BUT I’M JUST FOCUSED ON WINNING GAMES AND LEADING THIS DEFENSE.” —
Cam Jordan
Jordan’s career took another monumental step recently, as he reached 125 career sacks — a significant milestone in NFL history. In the Saints’ Week 10 win over the Panthers, he added another sack and two tackles for loss, pushing his career total to 125. This achievement places Jordan among the top 20 all-time sack leaders in NFL history. With this accomplishment, Jordan joins an elite group of only 20 players who have reached 125 career sacks or more.
Despite being 36 years old, Jordan continues to defy the usual decline seen in many players at his age. His performance this season is as dominant as ever, and he could climb even further up the all-time list in the coming weeks. Right now, Jordan has Dwight Freeney (125.5 sacks) and Derrick Thomas (126.5 sacks) ahead of him in 19th and 18th place, respectively. The next target is Rickey Jackson, who sits 17th with 128 sacks. Jordan is more than capable of passing them, and with his current form, he could end the season with even more milestones.
Jordan’s leadership and determination have been invaluable for the Saints, and keeping him past the trade deadline was undoubtedly the right decision. Even though the Saints have faced a tough season, Jordan’s individual achievements continue to shine. As the team looks toward the final stretch of the season, Jordan’s presence on defense remains a beacon of consistency and excellence.
With seven games left, Jordan’s hunger for greatness and his ability to lead the defense will be essential to the Saints’ success. As the season winds down, it’s clear that his legendary status in the NFL will continue to grow, and who knows — there may be even more history to write in the weeks ahead.
“Buffalo’s offense is sputtering, and some fans are wondering if Brian Daboll could be the cure for what ails them.”
The Buffalo Bills (6-3) have been struggling offensively, with their most recent lackluster performance coming in a 30-13 defeat to the Miami Dolphins. Despite facing one of the league’s worst defenses, Buffalo’s receivers failed to create any separation, and the offense was unable to get anything going through the first three quarters. It’s clear that the Bills’ offensive issues are becoming a growing concern.
However, today’s Buffalo Rumblings report quashed any hopes for those Bills fans calling for a change at offensive coordinator. Head coach Sean McDermott confirmed that Joe Brady would remain the team’s offensive coordinator through the end of the 2025 NFL season. Despite speculation that former offensive coordinator Brian Daboll could be brought back to help turn things around, McDermott swiftly dismissed the idea.
McDermott Shoots Down Daboll Return
When Daboll was fired as head coach of the New York Giants, rumors swirled about the possibility of a reunion with quarterback Josh Allen in Buffalo. McDermott wasted no time in shutting down those rumors, stating that he has confidence in Joe Brady and has no intention of bringing Daboll back to Buffalo.
“At this time, that is not something we are considering,” McDermott said when asked about the possibility of Daboll returning to Western New York.
The question remains: could Daboll have been the solution to Buffalo’s offensive struggles, or is the real issue something deeper? The Bills started the season strong but have since been cold, particularly in their loss to the Dolphins.
Dalton Kincaid’s Injury Puts More Pressure on Offense
Adding to Buffalo’s woes, tight end Dalton Kincaid, who has been one of Josh Allen’s most reliable targets this season, has been officially labeled “week-to-week” after suffering a hamstring injury in the Dolphins’ loss. Kincaid had been a standout, recording 29 catches for 448 yards and four touchdowns—leading the team in both receiving yards and touchdowns this year. His absence could further strain the already struggling offense.
As the Bills continue to deal with a variety of injuries, including to key players like Kincaid, the offense will need to find a way to regain its early-season form. While McDermott has expressed confidence in his current coaching staff, fans are left to wonder if a change in offensive philosophy or leadership might be what’s needed to reignite Buffalo’s high-powered attack.
More Updates on Bills’ Injuries and Roster Moves
As the Bills face a series of injuries, including to key offensive players, the team is also adding new faces to the practice squad. Stay tuned for updates as Buffalo looks to address its depth and find solutions to its current offensive struggles.
