A good read. There's some twinkles of understanding there... Not something you see often from national writers.

It's lengthy so I won't c/p it all. I really liked this though:
quote:
"There's a winner and a loser. How bad do you want it?" said Brees, raising his voice. "When I'm out here, I'm trying to destroy our defense, man. And they're trying to get to me, they're trying to fool me, they're trying to destroy us. When you have that mentality, that just becomes your nature. Then you go out with this attitude: Every time I step on the field, I'm trying to destroy that team on the other side of the ball. That's what builds that confidence and that swagger."
Fired up, Brees continued, "If everything you do, you're trying to win at, and you're pissed if you don't win, it becomes your nature. It is my nature."
And this
quote:
And that moment wasn't exactly to send any sort of message. It's who Payton is, it's who Brees is, it's who the Saints want to be. The coach will tell you himself, that drive to a championship is right where it's always been, as far as he's concerned.
"Absolutely," Payton said. "Absolutely. Absolutely."

has there ever been more hype going into a season since after the '06 finish? on paper we seem unstoppable. i love that we should know very early where we stand.
i wonder if Brees will have a new chant.

I don't think so. We are healthy and deep at so many positions. Fun to be a Saint right now.
Hoping to get more news on the DT's and V Butler.

Ready to see Byrd and Butler in action
If we can stay healthy we win 12-13 games without question

having been a Saints fan so long it's so easy to let the doubt creep in like you're just waiting for the floor to drop out, but man, I'm as excited as I've ever been.

Yes, F... Andrew Luck. The talent, chemistry and Q.B. we need to make the run is here now.
