Saints Sign a Star to Light Up the Superdome

No play has been more telling of the towering presence of Jimmy Graham on the field, and in the hearts of New Orleans Saints fans, than his nearly game-ending exploit at the conclusion of regulation in the San Francisco 49ers game.

There are few players more transformative in any NFL franchise’s history than Drew Brees during his Saints tenure. Before his arrival, the Saints won one playoff game and had two seasons of truly superlative, All-Pro-quality quarterback play (those by Archie Manning in 1978 and 1979).

If a good offense is the best defense, then punting may be the most important play in football. Under the rules of the game, the punt is an offensive play, yet a punter can greatly improve a team’s defense by sending the opposing team back any given number of yards with a single play.

The Art of Communication in the Best Offense in Football

In football, as in life, versatility is key to success. Adjusting to changing circumstances on the ground, as they happen, is a skill some of the best have and hone. They know that, even more than the talented, it is those most adaptable to change who survive and thrive.

Vince Lombardi said that, in sports, winning is a habit.
