The James Skrmetta Podcast

Could Diego Pavia be the next Taysom Hill? In this video, James Skrmetta breaks down Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia and why his unique skill set is drawing early 2026 NFL Draft buzz especially for teams like the New Orleans Saints and Sean Payton’s Denver Broncos. Pavia’s toughness, mobility, creativity, and football IQ have sparked comparisons to Taysom Hill, but does that make him a smart draft target or a risky projection? James dives deep into player comparisons, scheme fits, and the pros and cons of drafting Pavia, including how he could be used in a modern NFL offense. Is Diego Pavia a legitimate chess piece who can stress defenses, or just another college QB whose game doesn’t translate cleanly to Sundays? And should the Saints consider him as a versatile weapon—or does he make even more sense for Sean Payton in Denver?

What is Alvin Kamara’s role with the New Orleans Saints in 2026 and beyond? With Kamara sidelined for much of the 2025 season and the Saints clearly entering a new phase of their rebuild, questions are swirling about the future of the Saints’ running back room. In this video, James Skrmetta breaks down where Alvin Kamara fits moving forward, how the Saints’ front office and coaching staff may view him internally, and whether he’s still the clear RB1—or transitioning into a different role. With Kamara still very highly paid, the Saints face real decisions about workload, usage, and long-term planning. James also dives into the growing buzz around the Saints potentially drafting Jeremiyah Love in the 2026 NFL Draft or exploring big-name options in free agency like Breece Hall or Kenneth Walker. Is Kamara still the focal point of the offense? Or is New Orleans preparing for a changing of the guard?

The Seattle Seahawks are Super Bowl champions once again. In this video, James Skrmetta reacts to and breaks down the Seahawks’ dominant 29–13 win over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX, a game that was decided by defense, physicality, and total control. Seattle’s “Dark Side” defense completely shut down New England’s offense, harassing Patriots quarterback Drake Maye all night with six sacks, three forced turnovers, and relentless pressure that never let the Patriots settle in. Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III powered the Seahawks offense with 135 rushing yards, while Sam Darnold delivered a clean, turnover-free performance on the biggest stage. From Derick Hall’s strip sack to interceptions by Uchenna Nwosu and Julian Love, this was a defensive masterclass that reminded everyone why defense still wins championships. James breaks down how Seattle took control early, why New England had no answers offensively, what this title means for the Seahawks franchise, and where both teams go from here after Super Bowl LX at Levi’s Stadium.

Could Jeremiyah Love be the missing piece the New Orleans Saints offense desperately needs? In this video, James Skrmetta breaks down whether Jeremiyah Love would be a smart target for the Saints in the upcoming NFL Draft and how his skill set could immediately elevate Kellen Moore’s Saints offense. James dives into how Love’s explosiveness, vision, and versatility could finally give the Saints a legitimate run game—something they’ve been missing—and why that matters so much for the development and success of Tyler Shough. A strong run game doesn’t just help the offense stay balanced; it can unlock play-action, simplify reads, and take pressure off a young quarterback. Would Jeremiyah Love change the ceiling of the Saints offense? Is running back the sneaky key to making Kellen Moore’s system work in New Orleans? And is helping Tyler Shough the real priority this offseason?

Did the New Orleans Saints make a mistake trading Rashid Shaheed to the Seattle Seahawks at the NFL trade deadline? After Shaheed’s electric kick return in the divisional round against the San Francisco 49ers, Saints fans are asking the obvious question: should New Orleans regret the move? In this video, James Skrmetta reacts to Rashid Shaheed’s playoff moment and breaks down why it still doesn’t change the reality—the Saints were right to trade him when they did. James dives into roster construction, contract value, sustainability of big-play specialists, and how the Saints are thinking long-term as they reshape their offense around the future.

The New Orleans Saints just delivered one of the most unforgettable wins of the season, and this one felt bigger than the scoreboard. After an incredible come-from-behind victory over the Tennessee Titans, the Saints walked into the locker room with belief, confidence, and a clear sense that something special is building in New Orleans.

The New Orleans Saints just played their most defining game of the season and it might have officially locked up NFL Rookie of the Year for Tyler Shough. In this video, James Skrmetta recaps and breaks down the Saints’ thrilling 34–26 comeback win over the Tennessee Titans, a game that truly felt like the start of a new era of Saints football. Down 13 points, the Saints completely flipped the game in the second half behind a gutsy, elite performance from rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, who outplayed No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward on the road. Shough finished 22-of-27 for 333 yards, 2 touchdowns, and a 142.7 passer rating, improving to 5–3 as a starter and leading the Saints to their fourth straight win.

What you see in that locker room says everything about how dramatically this team has changed under Moore’s leadership.James breaks down the unbelievable culture turnaround in New Orleans, highlighting how this Saints team has fully bought into what Kellen Moore is building. Nothing captured that better than Moore’s decision to prioritize getting Taysom Hill involved, knowing this could potentially be his final home game as a Saint. It was a bold, emotional decision — and a massive risk — but one that showed exactly why this locker room believes in its head coach.

The New Orleans Saints made a statement on Sunday, rolling past the New York Jets 29–6 for their third straight win, and this one felt different. In this video, James Skrmetta recaps and breaks down a dominant Saints performance highlighted by Tyler Shough’s first career 300-yard passing game and a monster day from Chris Olave, who scored two touchdowns and reminded everyone why he’s one of the league’s premier receivers. The Saints offense stayed in control all game, while Charlie Smyth tied a franchise record with FIVE field goals, consistently punishing the Jets every time New Orleans crossed midfield. Taysom Hill once again did everything — throwing, running, receiving — and even helped set up points with a key fake punt. On defense, Cameron Jordan continued to climb the NFL history books, recording two sacks to pass Rickey Jackson on the all-time list, while the Saints pass rush overwhelmed New York all afternoon. The Jets were sacked eight times, turned the ball over, and never found a rhythm against an aggressive Saints defense that looks confident and fast.

Saints fans are feeling it, players are showing it, and the difference under Kellen Moore is impossible to ignore.

In this video, James Skrmetta breaks down one of the biggest myths in football: tanking for a higher draft pick. For years, NFL fans and media (especially ESPN) have pushed the idea that losing games is “worth it” if it improves draft position but is that actually true? James dives into 25 years of NFL Draft history, analyzing team records, draft pick outcomes, win totals, and long-term performance to prove that draft position does NOT determine future success. In fact, many of the best franchises in football never draft in the top five. So why do fans still believe tanking works? And how did the NFL Draft become so hyped that teams consider losing on purpose? This deep dive explores: Why “tanking for draft picks” is the dumbest strategy in sports The real analytics and evidence from the past two decades of drafting How great teams build winners without high picks Why ESPN and major networks keep selling the draft like it’s everything How culture, coaching, development, and roster building matter far more than draft slot If you’re tired of fans begging their team to lose for “draft capital,” this video is going to change your mind.
