This is the athletic football show.

Welcome to the athletic football show.

I'm Robert Mays and I'm very excited about our final preview podcast before the NFL kicks off.

We're going to be joined a little bit later by the Athletics Lindsay Jones to break down all of our award winners, predictions,

playoff teams, who's going to win the Super Bowl, all of that good stuff.

But before Lindsay hops on, I'm very pleased to be joined by my good friend,

Athletic Saints writer, Catherine Terrell,

to preview the NFC South.

Kat, how are you doing?

I'm not sure when I'll be going back to New Orleans or anywhere else. But you are very familiar with the Saints. Obviously, you are both from Louisiana. You've covered the team for a while at a couple different stops. We're going to start with the New Orleans Saints because I think that, you know, we'll get to this in our preview part with Lindsay a little bit later. But I think this team is going to be extremely good. They're immensely deep. But before we start digging into the roster and the depth chart and all this other stuff, let's please talk about the Judevian clowny chase. Because it to me is the most entertaining craziest thing I can remember an NFL team doing in terms of adding personnel. So I want to just

why don't you lay it out for me? What was like Clowny Watch like for you as you were trying to

follow this earlier in the weekend? Well, Clowny Watch actually started all the way back in,

I don't know, June maybe. It's pandemic time. I can't remember anymore, but...

Time is meaningless. Yeah. Way earlier in the summer and I just remember, I just shot a couple of,
