New Orleans Saints vs Carolina Panthers 2025 Week 10 Preview

Caleb Yaccarino • November 8, 2025

The New Orleans Saints face their second divisional game of the season, and it could be a winnable one.


Saints vs Panthers History

This divisional rivalry has always been a close one throughout history. Overall, the Saints and Panthers have played each other 61 times, with New Orleans winning 32 of the games and Carolina winning 29.  Over the past 10 games, the Saints have won six and the Panthers have won four. The last time these two teams faced each other, Carolina won by one point, and the Saints then fired Head Coach Dennis Allen.


The 2025 Season

Going into the regular season, both teams were in a bit of a weird situation. The Saints had high hopes to shock the world and actually be a team competing for the top of the NFC South, but their roster was never quite at that level. For the Panthers, they had similar hopes, but with QB Bryce Young's career being very, and I genuinely mean very, up and down, it was difficult to have true confidence. In reality, Carolina has not needed Young to play at a high level. With a dynamic run game and great pass defense, the Panthers are fighting for the division. For the Saints' season, it has been the opposite. Nothing seems to be going right, and eyes are now on the NFL Draft rather than the NFL Season.

Final Thoughts

The Saints are once again underdogs in the game, and with the injuries, it makes their job even harder. Still, this is a winnable game, but will New Orleans once again shoot itself in the foot and lose?

A quick share helps us a lot!

WR Bredell Richardson- UCF 
Bredell Richardson fits Tulane as a versatile, high-upside WR with four-star pedigree, polished route-running, elite ball skills (contested catch specialist), YAC explosiveness, and special teams value who adds immediate depth and competition to a revamped receiver room. 
He’s a 6-1, 190-pound redshirt sophomore transfer from UCF (Big 12) who committed in mid-January 2026 via the portal (entered Dec. 17, 2025). A four-star recruit (247Sports #93 WR nationally, top-370 overall) out of Carrollwood Day School in Tampa, FL, he has three years of eligibility left. Athletic Profile and Scheme Fit: Tulane prioritizes receivers who win with precise routes, create separation, haul in contested catches, generate yards after catch on short-to-intermediate throws, and stretch the field while contributing on special teams. Richardson checks every box as a developmental piece with proven high school production and P4 experience. 
Route-running and separation: Clean, precise routes (especially outside) that allow him to get open quickly, ideal for Tulane’s underneath and intermediate concepts. 
Ball skills and physicality: Excellent hands, body control, and leaping ability; he excels in 50/50 situations and contested catches thanks to his frame and athleticism. 
Explosiveness and versatility: Speed/agility to turn short completions into long gains (YAC threat), plus potential as a deep threat or slot option. Two-way HS experience (WR/free safety) and basketball/track background (shooting guard, long jump, 4x100) show football IQ, multi-positional value, and special teams upside (punt returns at UCF). 
Overall traits: Electric in open space with good hands on contested balls, exactly the kind of playmaker Tulane has targeted in the portal to complement quicker slot types or bigger outside threats like Gabe Daniels. #RollWave Make sure to follow Patrick Harkness on X
