That’s very simple: We’ve got the New Orleans Saints this weekend. That’s all we care about.
If Vilma reaches certain playtime incentives and signs a contract extension with New Orleans, New York would instead receive a second- or third-round pick in 2009. The Jets would then give the Saints their fourth-round pick next year.
Drew is having a great year ... He's a veteran player who gives the Saints confidence. He makes his receivers better and they play hard because of his leadership. He's also been good for the city of New Orleans, and has brought excitement to the fans.
I remember when I came here (as coach of the New Orleans Saints) how hard it was to play because of the fans ... I know how hard it is to play here when (the Rams are) playing well and the place is rocking.
Hmmmm… no wristwatch… doesn’t sound like an Outback Steakhouse ad when he talks… kid, welcome to the New Orleans Saints.
What's interesting about the Falcons playing the Saints is that it was a few years ago that Sean Payton showed up in New Orleans and turned that whole organization around, the season after Katrina, and winning with a quarterback that nobody seemed to want.
Drew Brees gave a passing masterclass to 83,226 fans as the New Orleans Saints triumphed 37-32 over his former side San Diego at Wembley. But rival QB Philip Rivers threw for three scores of his own as the second NFL regular-season game in London went down to the wire.
I think the things that the New Orleans Saints could control, and I credit the Benson’s, Mickey Loomis and Dennis Lauscha, were excellent and handled very professionally and first class
A couple of years ago, if I’d have suggested there would be a sold-out game between the New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers…I wouldn’t have had much credibility…
We do events where people have asked us to come in and create a New Orleans experience, but the NFL and the Saints really went over the top with this one ... They pulled out all the stops. To have us build floats that are specially designed to come apart is incredible. The Benson family told us from day one that the most important thing was to help put New Orleans on the map in Europe.
I think everybody, not just Algiers but the city of New Orleans and the state of Louisiana are going to support him and (former LSU standout and Shreveport native) Jacob Hester ... That's two guys from Louisiana. Certainly there are the Saints die-hards who want the Saints as a team to do well, but when the Chargers are on offense they are going to want to see their hometown heroes excel as well.
