return home to host the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday

afternoon at the Louisiana Superdome with a 3:05 p.m.

total since 2008.

At 6-3, the Saints enter Sunday’s game coming off of

back-to-back wins against the Pittsburgh Steelers and

Panthers, tied for second place with Tampa Bay in the

NFC South, a game behind first place. In addition to the

week one and week two and the past two contests, the

Saints will be seeking to post their first three-game win

streak of 2010.

The surprising Seahawks at 5-4, have already equaled

their 2009 win total and are currently in first place in the

NFC West, coming off a 36-18 win at the Arizona Car-

dinals on Sunday.

It is the first time since the 2007 season that the Saints

and Seahawks have met, when New Orleans snapped

an 0-4 start with a 28-17 win in Seattle on primetime.

The Saints-Seahawks series is tied 5-5, with the clubs

splitting four Superdome contests.

New Orleans enters the week 11 contest following a

THE COACHES

Saints coach Sean Payton has posted a 44-29 regular

season record and a 4-1 postseason mark, guiding

them to the Super Bowl XLIV championship. He’s the

lone head coach in club history to open a season with

13 straight wins and post a 13-game winning streak,

and has the franchise’s top all-time winning percentage

(.603). He’s also the club’s leader in postseason victo-

ries. His 22-15 (.595) home record and his 22-14 (.611)

road mark are the top winning percentages in club

record books. Payton has recorded a 34-21 (.618) mark

vs. NFC opponents. Since taking over, the Saints have

the best record among NFC South teams over that pe-

riod In 2006, he took the Saints to the NFC Champi-

onship and was named the NFL Coach of the Year by

most major media outlets. Payton is is only the second

NFL coach to lead his team to two NFC Championship

games since 2006. Payton was hired as New Orleans’

14th head coach on January 18, 2006, after serving on

the Dallas Cowboys staff from 2003-2005. Prior to join-

ing the Cowboys, Payton served on the New York Gi-

ants staff from 1999-2002, including the final three

seasons as offensive coordinator. His tenure was high-

lighted by a Super Bowl berth in his first full season as

coordinator. Payton’s prior NFL coaching experience

came as quarterbacks coach for the Philadelphia Ea-

gles from 1997-98.

Seattle head coach Pete Carroll is 38-35 in the regu-

lar season (.521) and 1-2 in the playoffs overall. Carroll

is in his first season in Seattle after serving as head

coach at the University of Southern California from

2001-09, leading the Trojans to a 97-19 record. Carroll

reached a bowl in each of his nine seasons, winning

seven. Carroll served as head coach of the New Eng-

land Patriots from 1997-99, leading them to the play-

offs in two of his three seasons. Before joining the

Patriots, Carroll served as defensive coordinator for the

San Francisco 49ers from 1995-96, following his first

season as an NFL head coach with the New York Jets.

Previously, he served as defensive coordinator for the

Jets (1990-93), defensive backs coach for Minnesota

(1995-89) and Buffalo (1984), after having served as

assistant head coach/offensive coordinator of his alma

mater, the University of Pacific (1985).

SERIES HISTORY

The Saints and Seahawks have met ten times with the

series tied 5-5. In games played in New Orleans, the

series is tied 2-2.

The Saints’ last home win in the series came in a 20-17

overtime win Nov. 16, 1997 at the Superdome. LB Win-

fred Tubbs returned an interception 15 yards on the

first play of the extra period, setting up a 38-yard field

goal by K Doug Brien on the next play. The kick which

came 17 seconds into overtime, capped the shortest

overtime period in NFL history. In 1976 against Seattle,

the Saints equaled a club scoring record in a 51-27 win

over the then-expansion Seahawks, who resided in the

same division as the Saints, the NFC West, for their in-

augural season. New Orleans has scored 50 or more

points only two other times in franchise history. A look

back at the results from the all-time series between the

two clubs.

LAST MEETING

Oct. 14, 2007: Saints 28, Seattle 17 @ Qwest Field –

With key contributions from offense, defense and spe-

cial teams, the Saints earned their first victory of 2007,

and the primetime win on national television also

sparked what was the first of a four-game win streak.

The Saints did most of their damage in the first half,

scoring all 28 points in the opening two quarters. New

Orleans kicked off the scoring six plays into the game,

when RB Pierre Thomas scooped up a fumbled snap

off a punt and bolted five yards into the end zone.

In the second quarter, the Saints exploded for three

touchdowns, with QB Drew Brees capping a 13-play,

86-yard march with a three-yard flip to TE Eric John-

son early in the period.

Seattle responded by driving to the New Orleans

26, but S Josh Bullocks blocked a 44-yard field goal

attempt, and New Orleans drove down for another TD

with three Brees completions and a 22-yard burst by

RB Reggie Bush setting up a seven-yard scoring run

off an end-around by WR Lance Moore. After a Sea-

hawks touchdown drive, Brees led the Saints on a nine-

play, 80-yard march-including four completions to WR

David Patten for 67 yards. WR Marques Colston fin-

ished the drive with a two-yard scoring grab to put the

Saints ahead 28-7, and the Seahawks would add a field

goal before halftime.

WEEK 1: Saints 14, Minnesota Vikings 9; Septem-

ber 9, 2010 @ Louisiana Superdome – The Saints

won a club record third consecutive season opener as

a consistent performance on offense, defense and spe-

cial teams carried New Orleans in the NFL’s kickoff per-

formance.

QB Drew Brees highlighted the Saints performance as

he completed 27 of 36 attempts for 237 yards and a TD.

RB Pierre Thomas had a team-best 71 yards on 19

carries with his one-yard TD run in the third quarter giv-

ing New Orleans the lead for good.

Brees connected on completions with nine different

Saints led by WR Marques Colston’s five receptions

for 62 yards. RB Reggie Bush chipped in with five

catches for 33 yards.

The Saints out-gained the Vikings, 308 to 253 yards,

and held the ball for 33:43 in time of possession as they

scored their fewest points in a winning effort since Sean

Payton became coach in 2006. New Orleans got out to

a early 7-0 lead, but then saw that evaporate in the sec-

ond quarter until Thomas’ one-yard scoring run in the

third stanza to put them back up for good.

The Saints’ defense displayed their mettle, allowing

only 253 yards of offense by the Vikings and held Min-

nesota to 5-of-13 on third downs (38%).

LB Jonathan Vilma had a second quarter interception

of Vikings QB Brett Favre, while DT Sedrick Ellis

sacked him. Favre finished 15-of-27 passing for 171

yards and one interception for a 71.7 passer rating.

• Vilma recorded an interception on a play where a

pressure on Favre was credited to S Roman Harper.

• The win improved their opening day record to 16-28.

This was the first time in club history the Saints have

won three consecutive season openers. The Saints are

4-1 in season openers under Payton.

• The 14 points scored were the fewest by the Saints in

a winning effort since Payton became head coach in

2006, and the fewest in a win since defeating Dallas 13-

7 on Dec. 28, 2003 in the Superdome.

• Brees and WR Devery Henderson connected on a

29-yard TD on a third down play on New Orleans’ first

offensive drive for the Saints first points of the season.

• DT Remi Ayodele blocked an extra point in the

second quarter. It was the first extra point blocked by

the Saints since DT Grady Jackson at Cincinnati on

Dec. 22, 2002.

WEEK 2: Saints 25, San Francisco 49ers 22; Sep-

tember 20, 2010 @ Candlestick Park – The Saints

posted an impressive road victory behind timely plays

by the arm of Drew Brees, the foot of Garrett Hartley,

who booted a 37-yard game-winning field goal as time

expired and four forced turnovers by the defense and

special teams unit.

The Saints scored nine early first quarter points. On the

first drive, the 49ers had the ball on their 15-yard line on

third and five when the ball flew over San Francisco QB

Alex Smith’s head and fell out the back of the end zone

for a safety. New Orleans then capitalized on the ensu-

ing possession fro the safety and drove 46 yards on

seven plays to cap it off with a six-yard touchdown pass

from Brees to RB Reggie Bush.

Leading 9-7 at halftime, 49ers RB Anthony Dixon ran

for a two-yard touchdown to give the 49ers a 14-9 edge.

The Saints responded when Brees fired his second

score of the game on a three-yard pass to TE David

Thomas with 1:43 remaining in the quarter.

Taking advantage of a 43-yard punt return by Bush to

end the third quarter, Hartley kicked the first of his three

fourth quarter field goals to put the Saints up 19-14.

Later on, WR Courtney Roby recovered a muffed punt

on coverage, setting up another field goal to give New

Orleans a 22-14 edge.

San Francisco RB Frank Gore ran for a TD and Smith

connected with 49ers TE Vernon Davis for a two-point

conversion with 1:19 left, but Brees took advantage of

the time to engineer the game-winning drive.

Brees completed 28 of 38 passes for 254 yards with

two TDs for a 108.9 rating. RB Pierre Thomas led the

Saints in rushing (46 yards) and receiving with eight

catches for 57 yards. WR Marques Colston had a

team-high 67 yards receiving on five grabs, including

an acrobatic 30-yard catch to set up the game-winning

field goal.

The defense forced Smith to throw interceptions to S

Roman Harper and CB Tracy Porter in Saints territory.

LB Jonathan Vilma had a game-high ten tackles and

his forced fumble, which was recovered by S Malcolm

Jenkins to avert a potential 49ers score.

• The win marks the first time the Saints have started 2-

0 in two consecutive seasons. It extended their win

streak against their former NFC West rivals to six

games.

• Brees had a streak snapped of an NFL record five

consecutive games with 300 or more yards passing on

Monday Night Football.

• Head Coach Sean Payton improved his record on

Monday Night Football to 6-2.

WEEK 3: Atlanta Falcons 27, Saints 24 (OT); Sep-

tember 26, 2010 @ Louisiana Superdome – Atlanta K

Matt Bryant kicked a 46-yard field goal with 1:55 left in

overtime to give the Falcons a 27-24 win.

The Saints overcame three turnovers and a three-point

fourth quarter deficit to tie the score on their final drive

of regulation when K Garrett Hartley kicked a 32-yard

field goal.

However, in overtime, after the Saints defense stymied

Atlanta’s first drive, Hartley missed a 29-yard attempt

and the Falcons would successfully execute their next

time down the field.

QB Drew Brees completed 30 of 38 passes for 365

yards with three TD passes, two to WR Lance Moore

and two interceptions. Moore had a career day with six

receptions for a career-high 149 yards, tying his best in

TD grabs and adding a career-long 72-yard punt return

to set up a first quarter scoring throw from Brees to TE

Jeremy Shockey. Shockey led the Saints in receptions

with eight catches for 78 yards.

DE Will Smith and DT Sedrick Ellis recorded one

sack apiece. LB Jo-Lonn Dunbar led New Orleans

with a career-high 13 tackles.

Atlanta QB Matt Ryan completed 19 of 30 passes for

228 yards with two TDs. TE Tony Gonzalez had eight

receptions for 110 yards with one TD, while RB Michael

Turner carried 30 times for 114 yards with a TD.

• The loss snapped a streak of six consecutive Sep-

tember wins for the Saints, dating back to 2008.

• For the third straight game, the Saints scored a TD on

their first possession. Dating back to the 2009 opener

and including the playoffs, the Saints scored on their

first possession 13 times (10 TD, 3 FG) in 22 games.

• Brees’ first-quarter interception was not only the first

turnover committed by the Saints in 2010, but the first

in 15 quarters, dating back to the second quarter of the

2009 NFC Championship. The pick was his first in 243

attempts, counting the postseason, his first in his last

141 regular-season throws. His last interception came

in Week 15 of 2009 vs. Dallas.

WEEK 4: Saints 16, Carolina Panthers 14; October

3, 2010 @ Louisiana Superdome – The Saints posted

an impressive win behind a powerful run game, timely

third down conversions, a relentless pass rush and

some key plays on special teams in a contest which

wasn’t decided until the final seconds.

On their first drive, the Saints drove to the one yard line,

where WR Lance Moore fumbled on a hard hit and it

was recovered by Panthers LB James Anderson in the

end zone for a touchback. But the Saints got the ball

back after forcing Carolina to their first of two first half

three and outs on a day where they constantly ha-

rassed rookie QB Jimmy Clausen, allowing him to

complete only 11 of 21 passes for 146 yards.

On their next drive, QB Drew Brees directed a six-play,

76-yard scoring march, ending with Moore rambling into

the end zone on a four-yard TD grab. However, the

Panthers tied the score on a 55-yard pass from Clausen

to RB Jonathan Stewart. New Orleans took the lead

near the end of the half, when K John Carney, starting

his third Saints stint, kicked a 32-yard field goal.

The Panthers took the lead on their first drive of the sec-

ond half, when RB DeAngelo Williams had a 39-yard

run. Failing to convert a third down on their next drive,

New Orleans was forced to punt, but a hard hit on cov-

erage by LS Jason Kyle forced Panthers CB Captain

Munnerlyn to cough up the ball and it was recovered

by WR Courtney Roby at the Carolina 29. Carney

kicked a 32-yard field goal to put the Saints within one.

Brees engineered an 18 play, 86-yard drive, that took

up 9:25 of the fourth quarter and ended with Carney

kicking a 25-yard field goal to give New Orleans the

lead with 3:55 left. Carolina on their final drive, marched

as close as the New Orleans 36, but their hopes ended

when the Saints pushed them out of field goal range on

successive plays with S Usama Young tackling

Williams for a four-yard loss and S Malcolm Jenkins

sacking Clausen before a final incompletion.

Brees completed 33 of 48 passes for 275 yards with

one TD as the Saints ran up 121 yards on the ground

and outrushed Carolina’s powerful attack. In his most

extensive, rookie RB Chris Ivory led the club in rush-

ing with 67 yards on 12 carries, teaming with Ladell

Betts who had 47 yards on the ground and caught four

passes for 23 yards. WR Devery Henderson had six

receptions for a team-leading 59 yards.

WEEK 5: Arizona Cardinals 30, Saints 20; October

10, 2010 @ University of Phoenix Stadium – In a

topsy-turvy contest, the Cardinals came back from a 10-

0 deficit and prevailed despite failing to score an offen-

sive touchdown rushing or passing.

CB Jabari Greer gave rookie Cardinals QB Max Hall

a rough initial reception in his first drive of the game of

his first NFL start, picking him off and returning the in-

terception 26 yards. New Orleans would capitalize on

the early turnover and K John Carney kicked a 31-yard

field goal.

New Orleans increased their first quarter lead to 10-0

when the Saints quickly would get the ball back and QB

Drew Brees drove the Saints on an 11-play, 76-yard

scoring drive that ended with a one-yard touchdown

pass to TE Jeremy Shockey. (continued on next page)

(continued from previous page) Despite a second quar-

to fumble, but the ball was picked up and brought into

the end zone by Arizona T Levi Jones in the second

quarter, the Saints remained on top at halftime as Car-

ney booted his second field goal of the contest to give

the Saints a 13-10 lead at the midway point.

The Cardinals would go on a 13-0 run off two field goals

and a 27-yard fumble return for a touchdown by Kerry

Rhodes.

With 3:25 remaining in the game, the Saints got the ball

back at their 18-yard line. The Saints drove to the Ari-

zona 35 where Brees connected with WR Robert

Meachem for his first TD of the season with 1:49 left.

With the Saints trailing 23-20, Carney attempted an on-

side kick but Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald recovered

it. On 3rd and eight at the New Orleans 33, Hall com-

pleted a pass to TE Ben Patrick and he coughed of the

ball at the 25-yard line where Fitzgerald recovered it

much to the dismay of the Saints.

After the Cardinals were forced to punt, the Saints got

the ball back at their nine-yard line. On first down, Brees

threw his third pick of the game to Cardinals DB Do-

minique Rogers-Cromartie who returned it for a 28-

yard touchdown to seal the Arizona victory.

• The Saints outgained the Cardinals in net yards by a

358-194. The 41 yards rushing the Saints defense sur-

rendered was the least since the 33 rushing yards given

up to Detroit in the 2009 season opener.

• Brees completed 24 of his 39 attempts for 279 yards

and two TDs. WR Marques Colston led all receivers

dermed their chances with four interceptions and two

game-changing special teams plays by the Browns.

CB Eric Wright who raced 62 yards to the New Or-

leans 19-yard line before being tackled, setting up an

early field goal.

ence penalty to put them in at the four-yard line where

Since he was named head coach in 2006, the New Or-

leans Saints have enjoyed a significant turnaround

under Payton, culminating with him leading them to the

Super Bowl XLIV title.

Payton has posted a 44-29 (.603) regular season

record, the best winning percentage in the NFC South,

tied for sixth in the NFL and second-best in the NFC

during the period. Payton has the top winning percent-

age for a Saints coach all-time. His home (22-15, .595)

and road (22-14, .611) winning percentages are the

finest in franchise history. Payton has recorded a 34-21

(.618) mark vs. NFC opponents. New Orleans’ 15-12

record in division play during this period is the second-

best in the NFC South. Under the supervision of Pay-

ton, the Saints offense has been ranked first in yards

per game three of the last four seasons. Overall, New

Orleans has posted a 10-5 record in primetime contests

over that period.

New Orleans has excelled in the biggest spotlight, since

the hiring of Payton. Seven of the club’s 12 victories on

Monday Night Football have occurred since 2006.

The Saints are the only NFC South club to capture two

division titles since 2006. Payton joins New England’s

Bill Belichick as the only two coaches to guide their

clubs to a conference championship game twice in the

last four seasons. His postseason winning percentage

(.800) is best among active NFL coaches.

IN THE NFC SOUTH

Under Payton, the Saints have enjoyed the best regu-

lar season record in the division since 2006.

DOMEFIELD ADVANTAGE

The Saints enjoyed a 6-2 home mark for the second

straight season in 2009 with a club record six game

home win streak. This marked the 12th time in club his-

tory the team posted a winning home mark. For the first

time since 1991 and 1992, the Saints posted back-to-

back winning home records. Since 2008, the Saints

have a 15-6 home regular season record.

ROAD WARRIORS

Since Payton became head coach in 2006, the Saints

have the fifth-best record in the NFL at visiting stadiums

with a 22-14 mark. With a 7-1 road mark in 2009, tied

for best in the NFL, the Saints matched the 2000 squad

for the most road wins. Including the final road game of

2008, New Orleans’ eight game win streak away from

home was the second-longest in club record books.

their last ten contests versus AFC teams, dating back to

the 2008 season. Overall, the Saints have a 10-8 reg-

ular season record against AFC opponents since Pay-

ton became head coach

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

The Saints have eight players who have moved up to

the 53-man roster after starting their NFL careers on

practice squads, five who have spent time on the Saints

practice squad.

The most notable member of this group is WR Lance

Moore. After spending most of the 2005 and 2006 sea-

sons on the club’s practice squad, he evolved into one

of the team’s leading playmakers with 19 career touch-

down receptions to rank ninth in club record books. In

2010, he’s recorded 35 receptions for 448 yards (12.8

avg.) with a team-leading five touchdown catches.

Moore has also been a significant contributor on special

teams in the punt return game, averaging 10.2 yards a

return.

LB Jo-Lonn Dunbar started on the club’s practice

squad in 2008, becoming an integral part of the club’s

special teams units and spot starter on defense. He’s

appeared in 31 games with 12 starts, making 56 tack-

les, five pass defenses, one sack, one forced fumble

and 29 special teams tackles. In 2010, he’s started

seven of eight games, recording 33 tackles, two passes

defensed, one forced fumble, one sack and one spe-

cial teams stop.

After alternating between the Saints practice squad and

active roster in 2008, DT Remi Ayodele has held down

a starting position since 2009. In 2010, he’s tied for the

lead on the New Orleans defensive line with 44 tackles

(17 solo), also adding one sack, two pass defenses and

one forced fumble for a unit that is currently ranked third

in the NFL in opponent net yards per game, first against

the pass.

BUCKING THE ODDS

Players whose names are not called in the NFL draft

typically face challenging odds in sticking on a team.

Yet, the Saints feature 11 players on their roster who

have bucked convention, several becoming key con-

tributors.

Seven of the most notable undrafted alumni on the

Saints roster are Moore, Ayodele, Dunbar K Garrett

Hartley, RB Pierre Thomas, CB Jabari Greer and RB

Chris Ivory.

Thomas has provided a significant impact to the run

game. Signed after the 2007 draft, leading the club in

rushing in 2008 and 2009, scoring a club-best 20 TDs

over that span.

Signed by New Orleans at midseason in 2008, Hartley

has made 32-of-38 field goal attempts, as well as nail-

ing the game-winning kick in the NFC Championship

and being the only kicker in Super Bowl history to make

three attempts of 40 yards or more.

A 2004 undrafted signing by Buffalo out of the Univer-

sity of Tennessee, Greer has developed into one of the

NFL’s elite pass defenders. Signed to a four-year con-

tract in 2009, Greer has recorded three interceptions

and 18 pass defenses in 16 regular season appear-

ances, often charged with the task of covering the op-

position’s top wideouts.

Signed as a free agent out of NCAA Division II Tiffin fol-

lowing the 2010 NFL Draft, Ivory has appeared in seven

games for New Orleans with four starts and is their

leading rusher with 78 carries for 382 yards (4.9 avg.).

He enjoyed a breakout performance at Tampa Bay, Oct.

17, carrying 15 times for 158 yards, averaging 10.5

yards per carry. This was the fourth-highest yardage

total by an NFL runner in 2010, the 23rd most rushing

yards by an undrafted player in NFL history and sec-

ond-most yards per carry in a single-game by a Saints

runner in club record books (minimum eight attempts.),

the first to gain 150 yards and gain ten yards a carry.

SCORING EXPLOSION

Since 2006, the Saints have scored an average of 26.9

points per game (1,966 points) in 73 games, ranking

third in the NFL. During this period since Payton be-

came head coach, New Orleans has scored 20 or more

points in 57 games (78.1%) and 30 or more points in

31 contests (42.5%).

HOLDING THE LINE

The Saints offensive line remains one of the New Or-

leans offensive unit’s foundations. Since 2006, New Or-

leans has been the second-least sacked club in the

NFL, surrendering only 86 in 73 regular season games.

In 2009, LT Jermon Bushrod, RG Jahri Evans, C

Jonathan Goodwin, LG Carl Nicks and RT Jon

Stinchcomb surrendered only 20 sacks, the fourth-

fewest in the NFL for an offense that ranked first in the

league overall, while missing only one start overall due

to injury. The starting unit returns in 2010 intact and

have given up only 14 sacks for the NFL’s seventh-

ranked offense, currently tied for the fifth-lowest total in

the NFL.

Below is a synopsis of the Saints offensive line, includ-

ing five of it’s six members that started at least one

game in 2009, who are draft picks by the club:

LT Jermon Bushrod - A 2007 fourth round draft pick,

this promising young lineman helped spur the NFL’s

sixth ranked running game in 2009. The Towson prod-

uct has continued adding strength and working on tech-

nique in the offseason as he continues to line up

against many of the NFL’s elite pass rushers in 2010 in

his second campaign as a starter.

LG Carl Nicks - This 6-5, 343 pound mauler who was

a 2008 fifth-round draft choice, needed very little time to

make a smooth transition to life in the NFL trenches.

Selected for All-Rookie honors by several publications,

Nicks has opened every contest since the fourth of his

first year and combines with Jahri Evans for one of the

NFL’s top young interior combinations.

C Jonathan Goodwin - Goodwin took the starting reins

of the club’s center position in 2008 and has distin-

guished himself in pass protection, run blocking and

making line calls, opening 40 games in the middle of

the offensive line over the past four seasons. He’s com-

ing off a standout 2009 campaign where he was recog-

nized with a Pro Bowl selection for the first time in his

nine-year NFL career.

RG Jahri Evans - The 2006 fourth round draft choice

has made a rapid ascent from his small school roots at

Bloomsburg into one of the NFL’s top right guards.

Evans was named to his first Pro Bowl in 2009 as a

starter, elected a starter. His 73 straight starts with the

Saints is the longest streak in team history among of-

fensive linemen to begin a career and tied with linemate

and RT Jon Stinchcomb as the most by a current

Saint. Evans’ streak of consecutive starts to begin a ca-

reer is ranked third overall among all players in Saints

record books. Re-signed to a seven-year contract in the

offseason, Evans is expected to be a cornerstone of the

line for years to come in New Orleans.

choice is the club’s longest tenured player and among

the most respected by his teammates, shown by his

election as one of five team captains in 2010. Anchor-

ing the right side since 2006, he’s combined with Evans

to start all 73 games and provide uninterrupted service,

the most by the Saints during this period. He’s tied for

the fourth-longest current starting streak among NFL

tackles. After being re-signed to a five-year contract in

2009, Stinchcomb was selected to his first Pro Bowl.

T Zach Strief - This 2006 seventh round pick out of

Northwestern University has appeared in 64 regular

season games and opened five at left tackle, also filling

in on the right side. The versatile Strief, a tenacious

blocker, has also served as an extra blocking tight end

in short yardage situations.

The addition of defensive coordinator Gregg Wiliams,

shrewd moves in free agency and the draft and the re-

turn to health of several starters produced an oppor-

tunistic, resurgent unit, in 2009, resulting in a

improvement to a defense that moved up in the league

rankings in several categories, sending two players to

the Pro Bowl for the first time since 2001.

The improvement has continued into the 2010 cam-

paign as they are ranked third in the NFL in opponent

yards per game, first against the pass, while ranking

fourth in scoring defense, surrendering 16.8 points per

game. Overall, they have improved statistically from the

2009 campaign in most defensive categories.

YARDAGE IMPROVEMENT

After finishing ranked 25rd in the NFL in yardage sur-

rendered (357.8 yards per game) in 2009, the Saints

have improved to third (277.0 yards per game) in 2010.

After being ranked 21st against the run and 26th

against the pass last season, they are ranked 17th in

run defense and first in pass defense.
