....ummm...a win is a win...that is about it. Lets start with who stood out in week 10.
Running back Reggie Bush had his best game this season, which is great because the way other running backs Pierre Thomas and Mike Bell played, it was imperative Bush stepped up and made plays for the Saints offense. Bush only carried the ball six times but amounted 83 yards and scored once. He also had 2 catches for 15 yards and another score, finishing the day with two touchdowns as well as two punt returns for 5 yards. In total Reggie touched the ball 10 times in the game and got 103 total yards - just slightly over 10 yards per touch. Great numbers, as the games keep coming it will be crucial to keep exploring ways to utilize Bush's talents on the grid iron. As he showed against the Rams this [...]

Down 21 points...and the Saints march back and find a way to win!
I think we will have some new Stars this week as well as see some names that have been weekly names to be awarded star omitted from this this week's list.
For starters quarterback Drew Brees was a true gamer - his tenacity to go for it on 4th&1 - was pure brilliant, gutsy...and just what you want from your quarterback and leader! While he was brilliant in some aspects, in order to be a true championship caliber team - Brees and the Saints need to learn how to demolish weaker teams like the Dolphins so that they are able to withstand the test of the cream of the crop that the NFL has to offer (included but not limited to: Colts, Patriots, Steelers). Brees was two yards away from another 300 yard performance which [...]

The Saints stay undefeated...YaHOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Completely pushing the New York Giants around this past Sunday in the Super Dome 48-27. The Saints (5-0) used their bye week from week 5 and had an excellent game plan prepared to make a Giants team - thought to be one of the contenders in the whole NFL, appear to be pretenders against the Saints. The Saints were running on full cylinder and now should start to receive more of the spotlight when the talk swings to legitimate title contenders.
Lets get right into the Star Studded Saints from Week 6...
Drew Brees quarterbacked a perfect game....even his quarterback rating was near perfect (however the heck that thing is tabulated). Brees threw for 367 yards against a fierce Giants defense. Brees also completed 23 of 30 passes, four of [...]
