Get Hyped: Everything On the Eagles-Saints Week 3 Clash
The 2-0 Saints host the Eagles (1-1) in Week 3 in what should be a very electric atmosphere, something we just haven't seen in the Superdome in quite some time. The early hot start from the team has been a welcomed sight, as Klint Kubiak and company have helped revive New Orleans' offensive attack. Of course, it's not just him, but he and his coaches have worked heavily in tandem and have delivered early on. Here's our Pregame Report.

Saints Notes and Storylines for Week 3
TAYSOM HILL UNLIKELY TO PLAY: Hill, who does a variety of things for the Saints, was downgraded to doubtful on Saturday after suffering a chest injury against Dallas last week. The New Orleans offense will have to find a way, and this is an even better opportunity to see what Klint Kubiak can cook up. Adam Prentice should be a huge focal point in blocking, and we could see rookie Dallin Holker in the lineup as an extra tight end. Not rushing Hill back for such an early game is the right call.
CONTAINING THE EAGLES RUSHING ATTACK: You aren't going to completely shut down Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley, but limiting their success on the day would obviously go a long way. The Saints defense has been able to match the offense and be in sync, and that's one of the many differences in the early season for New Orleans. Regardless of how Dennis Allen approaches defending these two, the adjustments are the biggest thing in this game.
SUPERDOME HYSTERIA: There's two distinct moments I remember the Superdome being at its peak in the past several years. The first was when P.J. Williams got the pick-six to beat the Bucs in 2021, and then it was when Drew Brees was honored when they played the Bills less than a month later. Guess who will be in the building again on Sunday as the Legend of the Game? It's been a LONG time since the Superdome was the dominate place to be, and maybe this could be the year they get it back. We'll see.
