Why the Saints' offense keeps stalling — and what Kellen Moore must fix

Nick Underhill takes a second look at the Saints' loss to the Vikings and the offense's struggle to build a consistent plan. He examines play-action and screen usage, Tyler Shough's workload and throw chart, then reacts to Kellen Moore's answers about blitzes and early-down decisions. A listener question closes the show with a look at what reporters can actually see at practice and why Nick thinks the game plan matters more. The Giants game is next, and Nick explains why it feels pivotal.
