Saints Photos
I am going to start putting up pictures of me with some of the Saints players. I got a good one at the game with Vilma and Shockey!

Missing Colston...
Injuries have started to pile up for the Saints. None so costly as the injured Marques Colston. Although he did not have a big first game his presense allows others to have big games. I was hoping that Robert Meachem could be that kind of target for Brees and maybe one day he will but it was not yesterday. The Saints still looked fairly good against the Skins but were not quite good enough for the win.
The winning score came against the Saints injured secondary. Tracy Porter was a little behind Santana Moss for the long pass from Campbell. The Saints still need to work on eliminating the big pass play.
Bush had a nice game that included a 55 yard punt return for a touchdown. He also had 28 yards rushing and 63 yards receiving.
Shockey took a small step backwards causing an interception and loosing a fumble. He should bounce back for the next game.
Deuce is still being used in a limited roll but I expect that to change. The Saints had a hard time moving the ball on the ground against the Skins so look for Deuce to have a bigger roll when tough yards are needed.
My fantasy leaders for week 3 are (QB: Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers)(RB: Brandon Jacobs, Reggie Bush, Michael Turner)(WR: Randy Moss, Greg Jennings, Calvin Johnson)(TE: Jeremy Shockey, Antonio Gates)(K: Martin Gramatica, Rob Bironas)(D/ST: Saints, Patriots)

Saints Victorious in First Game!
I am very sorry it has taken so long for me to put up another post. Hurricane Gustav put me out of commision for a little while. I know there are a lot of fans out there who have been waiting for updates and I thank you for your patience.
Well let me start off by saying thankyou Reggie Bush. He looked sensational in his season opener. He had over one hundred and sixty all purpose yards and the game winning touchdown. I think we can expect more performances like this throughout the year.
The offense looked good but not great. I think this is because the Bucs are a good defensive team. Drew Brees had a great game and so did Jeremy Shockey. Pierre Thomas also looked solid filling in for Deuce Mcallister. Devery Henderson and David Patten each had long receptions for touchdowns. The on blemish of the day was the interception. Had Brees not been hit on the play Lance Moore would have had an easy reception that probably would have gone for a touchdown. That would have made the margin of victory eighteen instead of four.
The defense showed up for the Saints against the Bucs. Even without Mike Mekenzie the secondary played very well. Tracy Porter in particular did an outstanding job. The defensive line was also outstanding. Garcia had pressure in his face all day and even sustained an injury. I think this pressure also made it easier for the secondary. Vilma was solid at Linebacker and Fujita had the game winning play on a crucial fourth down conversion for the Bucs.
It looks like good things are in store for the Saints this year! Let me know what you think!
