THE MATCHUP

The New Orleans Saints (5-0) travel to New England this weekend to face the New England Patriots (4-1) at Gillette Stadium in a key interconference matchup. The Saints are 5-0 for the second time in four years af-ter defeating the Chicago Bears 26-18, last Sunday at Sol-dier Field. The only other two times the Saints have won their first six contests are 2009 (13-0) and 1991 (7-0). The Saints are now one of only three unbeaten teams remain-ing on the eve of week six in the NFL. A win at Gillette Sta-dium, where the Patriots have posted a 44-6 record since 2007, would send New Orleans off to their week seven bye on a good note. The Saints put together one of their most balanced vic-tories of the season on Sunday at the Bears, as they con-trolled the line of scrimmage by holding onto the ball for 36 minutes and were fueled by their first turnover-free perfor-mance of the season, against a team that went into the game leading the NFL in takeaways. Displaying that effi-ciency through the season, the Saints are now tied for fourth in the league in turnover ratio (+6). QB Drew Brees helped engineer a balanced approach for the Saints, as he completed 29 of 35 passes for 288 yards with two touchdown passes to RB Pierre Thomas and a 120.0 passer rating. At one point in the first half, Brees completed 11 consecutive passes.

The Saints scored on their first possession for the fourth consecutive contest, K Garrett Hartley kicked a 47-yard field goal, his first of four on the day. Midway through the second quarter, New Orleans extended the lead to 13-0 when Thomas, a Chicago native, caught a two-yard screen pass in his hometown. The Saints, who have not trailed in a contest since early in their third contest this season, jumped out to a com-manding 20-7 halftime lead when Thomas eluded several defenders for 25 yards on a screen pass that ended in the end zone. Sunday’s matchup will feature two clubs that have post-ed a combined 8-1 record through success on all three sides of the ball. The Patriots’ 53 victories since 2009 lead the NFL, while New Orleans’ 49 wins are tied for second in the league. The Saints are currently ranked fourth in the NFL in total offense, second passing the ball. They rank ninth in the league in scoring with 26.8 points per game. The club ranks sixth in the NFL in third down conversion rate (43.5%). The defense is currently tied for 11th in the NFL. Keeping opponents out of the end zone has been a strength, as they are ranked fourth in the NFL (14.6 ppg.) in scoring defense and have not yet surrendered 20 points in a contest. Success has also come on third down for the defense, as they currently rank ninth in the league, holding opponents to a 35.7 conversion rate.

THE COACHES

Sean Payton has posted a 67-34 regular season record and a 5-3 postseason mark, guiding the team to the Super Bowl XLIV Championship. He’s the club’s lone head coach to open a season with 13 straight wins and post a 13-game win streak and has the franchise’s top winning percentage (.660). Payton’s 35-16 (.686) home record and 32-18 (.640) road mark are the club’s top winning percent-ages. In 2006, he took the Saints to the NFC Champion-ship and was named NFL Coach of the Year by most ma-jor outlets. The Saints are one of only two teams to finish in the top 10 in net yards per game each season since 2006. Payton was hired as New Orleans’ 14th head coach on Jan. 18, 2006, after serving on the Dallas Cowboys staff from 2003-05. Prior to joining the Cowboys, Payton served on the New York Giants staff from 1999-2002, in-cluding the final three seasons as offensive coordinator. His tenure was highlighted by a Super Bowl berth in his first full season as coordinator. Payton’s prior NFL coach-ing experience came as quarterbacks coach for Philadel-phia from 1997-98.

New England head coach Bill Belichick is in his

tenth season as the head coach of the Patriots. He is the only head coach in NFL history to win three Super Bowls in four years, and has also delivered five conference titles, 10 divisions crowns and 17 playoff victories to the Patriots while delivering an overall record of 168-65. He is in his 39th season as an NFL coach and was hired by New Eng-land on January 27, 2000. In 2007, Belichick led the Patri-ots to the NFL’s first 16-0 regular season and is the only head coach in NFL history to win at least 13 regular-season games in five separate seasons. Belichick has led the Patriots to a winning record in each of the last 12 sea-sons, the second longest stretch by a coach with one fran-chise (Tom Landry, 16 years, Cowboys, 1970-85). In 2012, he guided the Patriots to a 12-4 record, a division title and his seventh AFC Championship game appearance.

WEEK 1: Saints 23, Atlanta Falcons 17; September 8,

2013 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints (1-0)

defeated the Falcons (0-1) in a season opener for the first

time in seven tries as the Saints ended up on the winning

end of their opener for the first time since the 2010 cam-

paign, aided by solid performances in all three phases

The Falcons opened the scoring with 8:40 left in the first

quarter when QB Matt Ryan completed a seven-yard

touchdown pass to TE Tony Gonzalez, powered by a pre-

vious 50-yard completion to WR Harry Douglas. On Atlan-

ta’s next drive, the Falcons would extend their lead to 10-0

on a 23-yard field goal by K Matt Bryant.

At the start of the second quarter, K Garrett Hartley,

who was a perfect three-for-three on field goal attempts,

put the Saints on the scoreboard for the first time with a 48-

yard kick. On Atlanta’s next offensive play, S Malcolm Jen-

kins tackled WR Julio Jones and forced him to cough up

the ball, which was recovered by S Roman Harper. Three

plays later the score was tied when QB Drew Brees con-

nected on a 25-yard scoring play. The reception was the

533rd of Colston’s eight-year career, making him the club’s

all-time receiving leader. New Orleans would close out their

13-0 run in the second half to take the lead on a 31-yard

field goal by Hartley.

The Falcons would retake the lead at the start of the

third quarter on a four-yard touchdown pass from Ryan to

Jones. However, New Orleans would strike right back on

the ensuing possession, when Brees led the Saints on a 10

-play, 80-yard drive ending with a seven-yard touchdown

pass to TE Jimmy Graham. The New Orleans defense

would do their part in the remainder of the third quarter,

forcing two consecutive three-and-out series’.

Hartley booted his third field goal with 3:16 left in the

contest, but the Falcons would quickly drive down the field

trailing 23-17. New Orleans successfully defended four

consecutive plays inside the seven-yard line, clinching the

victory on a pass that was tipped by rookie S Kenny Vac-

caro and caught by Harper, as he became the first Saint to

record an interception and a fumble recovery in the same

contest since 2002. This series ended a particularly stingy

performance on third down by the New Orleans defense,

where they allowed the Falcons to convert only three-of-11

third down attempts.

Brees completed 26-of-35 passes for 357 yards with two

touchdowns, one interception and a 113.passer rating. Col-

ston had five receptions for 68 yards, while Graham had

four grabs for 45 yards.

WEEK 2: Saints 16, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 14; Sep-

tember 15, 2013 @ Raymond James Stadium – The

Saints posted an impressive road comeback against Tam-

pa Bay behind some timely plays by the arm of QB Drew

Brees, the hands of WR Marques Colston and TE Jimmy

Graham and the foot of K Garrett Hartley, who booted a

27-yard game-winning field goal as time expired.

The Saints would score three early points when they got

the ball first and Hartley kicked a 44-yard field goal. New

Orleans would then force the Buccaneers to punt, but on

the next play, Brees was intercepted by LB Dakoda Wat-

son and QB Josh Freeman would drive Tampa Bay 35

yards on seven plays, ending with a five-yard touchdown

pass to give Tampa Bay the lead. It would be short-lived

though, as Brees quickly drove the Saints down the field,

ending with a 56-yard touchdown pass to Graham.

Following a scoreless second quarter, the Buccaneers

got the ball first in the second half, but Freeman would be

sacked by DE Cameron Jordan, coughing up the ball,

which was recovered by OLB Junior Galette. New Orleans

would turn the recovery into three points when Hartley

booted a 41-yard field goal. When Tampa Bay took posses-

sion again, another turnover was forced by an opportunistic

defense, when S Malcolm Jenkins got in front of a Free-

man pass and returned it 31 yards.

Early in the fourth quarter, the Buccaneers would re-

take the lead when LB Mason Foster picked off Brees and

returned the interception 85 yards to the end zone.

With timing running short, after two unsuccessful

drives for New Orleans, the Buccaneers took the ball back

with 6:56 remaining. They converted three first downs,

however on a third-and-six play from the New Orleans 32,

NT John Jenkins stuffed Tampa Bay RB Doug Martin

three yards short of the chains. Tampa Bay K Rien Lin-

dell’s 47-yard field goal attempt sailed wide left.

1:06 left in the contest was enough for Brees as he

marched the Saints up the field to the Tampa Bay nine-

yard line on successive passes to Graham, RB Darren

Sproles and WR Marques Colston, who had a spectacu-

lar 31-yard grab to set up the game-winning field goal.

• The win marks the first time the Saints have started 2-0

since the 2010 season.

• Following the final game-winning offensive surge, Brees

ended the game with 322 yards passing and has now

reached 300 yards in seven consecutive games, closing in

on the NFL record of nine straight 300-yard performances

he last set from 2011-12.

WEEK 3: Saints 31, Arizona Cardinals 7; September 22,

2013 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints im-

proved to 3-0, powered by an offensive attack that gained a

season-high 423 yards and a defense that allowed one

touchdown and only two trips into the red zone.

The Falcons opened the scoring with 9:13 left in the first

quarter when RB Alphonso Smith powered into the end

zone on a three-yard touchdown run. After QB Drew Brees

connected with WR Robert Meachem on a 27-yard scoring

pass, the Saints would not trail again, forcing two Cardinals

turnovers on defense.

Late in the second quarter, Brees and TE Jimmy Gra-

ham, who led the saints in receiving with nine receptions

for 134 yards, connected on a 16-yard touchdown pass.

Late in the third quarter, powered by a 29-yard pass play

between Brees and Graham, K Garrett Hartley booted a

31-yard field goal to give New Orleans a 17-7 lead.

Between the third and fourth quarters, Brees led New

Orleans on a seven-play, 39-yard drive, ending with a sev-

en-yard touchdown run up the middle by the signal-caller.

Brees finished his day by completing 29-of-46 passes for

342 yards with three touchdowns and one interception, six

carried for 21 yards, including the touchdown and the sev-

en-yard scoring run.

With the Cardinals in rally mode, trailing 24-7 at the

start of the quarter, S Kenny Vaccaro picked off a pass by

Arizona QB Carson Palmer at the New Orleans eight-yard

line and returned it 29 yards. 12 plays later, Brees and Gra-

ham connected for the final time on the afternoon on a sev-

en-yard pass play in the end zone. Palmer would put the

Cardinals in hurry-up mode and would get picked off by

Saints CB Keenan Lewis at the New Orleans 20-yard line

to seal the win for the Saints.

• A swarming New Orleans defense allowed only 247 net

yards and allowed Palmer to complete only 18-of-35 pass-

es for 187 yards with zero touchdowns, two interceptions

and a 43.4 passer rating.

• Brees passed for 300 yards for the eighth consecutive

contest, the second-longest streak in NFL history, second

to his nine-game run between 2011 and 2012.

• The New Orleans defense held the Cardinals to only 100

total net yards in the second half, while recording both of

their interceptions. ILB Curtis Lofton led the standout de-

fensive effort with a teams-high eight tackles (seven solo),

while DE Cameron Jordan recorded two sacks.

WEEK 4: Saints 38, Miami Dolphins 17; September 30,

2013 @ Mercedes-Benz Superdome – The Saints posted

an impressive Monday night victory against the Dolphins

behind a powerful passing game, an opportunistic second-

ary and a relentless pass rush

After Miami won the coin toss and elected to defer, New

Orleans took advantage of the decision and started with

their most effective opening drive of the season, as QB

Drew Brees led them down the field on a six-play, 82-yard

drive that included a 48-yard completion to RB Darren

Sproles and ended with a five-yard scoring rush by the

shifty runner

The New Orleans defense would then proceed to clamp

down on Miami QB Ryan Tannehill throughout the game,

forcing him to turn over the ball four times, the first two of

which occurred in the second quarter and produced their

next 14 points after the opening touchdown and a 21-10

halftime lead. The Dolphins signal-caller completed only 22

-of-35 passes for 249 yards with one touchdown, three in-

terceptions, one fumble and a 57.9 passer rating.

Brees completed 30 of 39 passes for 413 yards with

four touchdowns, zero turnovers and a 144.5 passer rating.

Sproles finished with 222 all-purpose yards, as he carried

four times for 28 yards and also had seven receptions for a

game-high 114 yards with one touchdown. TE Jimmy Gra-

ham finished with four receptions for 100 yards with two

touchdowns.

The pass rush was led by the front seven as OLB Jun-

ior Galette, DE Cameron Jordan, DE Tyrunn Walker and

OLB Martez Wilson each recorded sacks. S Rafael Bush

recovered a fumble and CB Jabari Greer made an inter-

ception, a pair of turnovers that led to 14 points in the se-

cond quarter. CB Chris Carr and ILB Will Haerring also

added picks.

• With the win, the Saints are undefeated after four games

for the fourth time in the 47-year history of the franchise.

The 1991 (started 7-0), 1993 (started 5-0) and 2009

(started 13-0) teams also had 4-0 or better starts

• Brees passed for 300 yards for the ninth consecutive con-

test, now tied with his nine-game run between 2011 and

2012 for the longest streak in NFL history.

• With four sacks for the second straight week, it marked

the first time the Saints recorded at least four takedowns in

two straight games since the 2009 season. With his fourth

sack of the season, DE Cameron Jordan now leads the

team and is tied for seventh in the NFL.

@ Soldier Field – The Saints improved to 5-0 as a bal-

anced, methodical approach earned them their first win at

Soldier Field since 2000 before 62,361 spectators

After forcing a three-and-out to open the contests, the

Saints got the ball back and got on the scoreboard first on

a 47-yard field goal by K Garrett Hartley. They would nev-

er look back as they would jump up to a 20-7 halftime lead,

NFL in takeaways going into the contest and held onto the

of-35 passes for 288 yards, two touchdowns nad a 120.0

passer rating. RB Pierre Thomas, a Chicago native, was

the recipient of both touchdown throws, as he posted nine

receptions for 55 yards, also leading the team in rushing

with 36 yards. TE Jimmy Graham led the team in receiving

with 10 receptions for 135 yards.

While playing turnover free football offensively, S Mal-

colm Jenkins sacked Bears QB Jay Cutler and forced

him to fumble the ball as it was recovered by DE Cameron

Jordan. ILB David Hawthorne and S Kenny Vaccaro,

also added takeowns, while New Orleans held the Chicago

Rushing attack to under 100 yards.

• Brees finished the day by completing 29 of 35 passes for

288 yards and two touchdown passes with zero intercep-

tions, for a passer rating of 120.0. He completed 11 con-

secutive passes at one point in the first half, as he helped

get the Saints off to a 20-7 halftime lead.

• Graham tied his career-high in receiving for the second

time this season, as he led the team with 10 catches for

135 yards.

finished with nine receptions for 55 yards with two touch-

downs and led the club in rushing with 36 yards.

• A stout run defense held Bears RB Matt Forte to only 55

yards on the ground. ILB Curtis Lofton led the run-

stopping effort with nine tackles (eight solo).

• New Orleans has held opponents to under 20 points for

five consecutive games for the first time since the 2000

campaign, when they did so for a six-game stretch. This is

the longest period for the club to do so to open a season,

since they held their first six opponents to under 20 points

in 1992.

ROSTER ROLL CALL

Of the 53 players currently on the Saints’ roster, 36 were

on the active roster, a reserve list or the practice squad at

the end of the 2012 season. Among newcomers, the roster

includes three unrestricted free agents, three veteran free

agents, one trade acquisition, four draft picks and six rookie

free agents.

Of the 53 players, 29 have less than four years of previous

NFL experience, including 10 players who were in their first

NFL training camp. The following is a breakdown of New

Orleans’ roster by years of experience (year entering): 13

years-1, 10 years-3, 9 years-2, 8 years-7, 7 years-4, 6

years-3, 5 years-5, 4 years-5, 3 years-7, 2 years-5, 1 year-

1, rookies-10.

HIGHER EDUCATION

42 different colleges and universities are represented on

the Saints’ roster. Of that total, seven are represented by

multiple Saints, led by three apiece from Illinois, Oklahoma

and Tennessee.

MY HOMETOWN

Saints players come from 29 different states and U.S. terri-

tories. Of the 80 players currently on the team’s roster, the

state which claims the most members of the team is Texas

with 10.

MY HOMETOWN

Saints players come from 23 different states. Of the 53

players currently on the team’s roster, the state which

claims the most members of the team is Texas with nine.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT

As the competition for roster spots in training camp is in-

tense as they eventually cut down from 90 to 53, a spot on

the practice squad is another avenue to eventually get onto

the active roster. The Saints have five players who have

moved up to their 53-man roster after being on NFL

practice squads, three who have spent time on the Saints

practice roster before being promoted.

The most notable member of the group is WR Lance

Moore. After spending most of 2005 and 2006 on the

club’s practice squad, he’s evolved into one of the team’s

leading playmakers with career totals of 313 receptions for

3,868 yards with 36 scoring grabs, 37 overall touchdowns.

In club record books, his reception total is ranked fourth,

yardage total seventh, scoring grabs fifth and total touch-

downs tied for sixth. Moore again ranked among the club’s

receiving leaders in 2012 with 65 receptions for a career-

high 1,041 yards (16.0 avg.) and six touchdowns, ranking

fourth on the team in receptions, second in yardage, fourth

in touchdown grabs and first in yards per catch. His 313

career receptions rank 21st all-time among undrafted play-

ers since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, while his yardage to-

tal (3,868) is 24th and his 36 TD grabs are tied for 13th.

Originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Phila-

delphia Eagles in 2008, FB Jed Collins spent parts of

three seasons on the practice squads of the Eagles, Cleve-

land Browns, Arizona Cardinals, Chicago Bears and finally

in New Orleans for most of the 2010 campaign before he

won the lead blocking job in 2011 for the NFL’s top-ranked

offense. Collins is coming off the most productive game of

his career on Sunday 11 rushing yards and four catches.

C Brian de la Puente first broke through in 2011 after

spending most of his first three seasons in the NFL on five

different practice squad rosters, including most of the 2010

campaign with New Orleans. After making the 2011 53-

man roster out of training camp, he assumed starting cen-

ter duties permanently in week seven, opening up 12

games for the offense that set an NFL record for net yards

per game. He started all 16 games at center for the Black

and Gold in 2012. The Saints have racked up at least 400

total net yards in 25 of the 33 games that he has opened in

the middle.

T Bryce Harris was originally a member of the Falcons

practice squad as a rookie in 2012 who was signed to the

Saints active roster in week two. Harris has appeared in

seven contests, as an asset on special teams and as an

extra blocker on the offensive line, while opening one game

at right tackle.

After spending most of his rookie season on the practice

squad of Atlanta in 2010, S Rafael Bush was promoted to

the active roster for one regular season game and one

playoff contest. In 2011, he was signed to the Denver Bron-

cos roster from the Atlanta practice squad at midseason

and posted three special teams stops and nine defensive

tackles in the postseason. In 2012, Bush ranked first on the

club with a career-high 15 special teams stops and one

fumble recovery with 13 defensive tackles (nine solo), one

interception, a pass defense, a forced fumble and a fumble

recovery. In 2013, Bush has appeared in five games with

one starts and posted 16 tackles (ten solo), two passes

defensed, a fumble recovery and one special teams stop.

BUCKING THE ODDS

Players whose names are not called in the NFL Draft often

face challenging odds in sticking on a team. Yet the Saints

final 2012 53-man roster featured 25 players who had

bucked convention. The current 53-man roster features 18

undrafted veterans and six undrafted rookies. Among the

undrafted veterans who have enjoyed productive NFL ca-

reers are Moore, de la Puente, Collins, Bush, S Isa Abdul-

Quddus, RB Travaris Cadet, CB Chris Carr, DE Glenn

Foster, OLB Junior Galette, CB Jabari Greer, K Garrett

Hartley, ILB David Hawthorne, ILB Ramon Humber, DE

Tom Johnson, RB Khiry Robinson and RB Pierre Thom-

as.

After originally making the club’s 53-man opening day ros-

ter as a free agent out of divisional 1-AA Fordham in 2011,

Abdul-Quddus has played in 33 games with four starts and

posted career totals of 46 tackles (30 solo), two intercep-

tions, 10 passes defensed, one forced fumble, one fumble

recovery, 20 special teams stops and two special teams

forced fumbles.

Signed following a standout career at Appalachian State,

Cadet was one of two undrafted rookies to earn a spot on

the 2012 opening day roster. The Miami native ended up

appearing in 13 games and finished ranked third in the

NFC and tied for seventh in the NFL in kickoff return aver-

age (26.5), also chipping in seven special teams tackles.

Signed as a free agent out of Boise State by Oakland in

2005, Carr has stuck in the NFL for nine years based on

his versatility on both defense and special teams. Carr saw

his most extensive action of the season vs. Miami, Sept.

30, and made an acrobatic fourth quarter interception, his

first since 2010.

Signed as a free agent out of Illinois following the 2013

NFL Draft, where he started 23 games on the defensive

line and posted 73 tackles, four sacks, one interception and

one pass defense, Foster matched his college quarterback

takedown total in the preseason as he finished among

league leaders and earned a spot on the 53-man roster,

adding a takedown in his NFL debut vs. Arizona Sept. 22.

Signed out of Stillman in 2010, Galette has evolved into a

gifted pass rusher, appearing in 37 games with six starts,

posting totals of 63 tackles (43 solo), 12.5 sacks, two pass-

es defensed, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery. and 11

special teams stops. In 2013, Galette has converted to out-

side linebacker in the 3-4 alignment and has posted three

sacks to rank second on the team and a fumble recovery.

A 2004 undrafted signing by Buffalo out of the University of

Tennessee, Greer has returned two interceptions for touch-

downs as a Saint and recorded 61 passes defensed since

signing with the club in 2009, the most by a Black and Gold

defender over that period. In 2012, he tied for the club lead

with three picks and defended 14 passes. On Sept. 30, vs.

Miami, he recorded his first pick of 2013.

Signed by New Orleans at midseason in 2008 as an un-

drafted free agent from Oklahoma, Hartley has made his

mark as one of the most reliable kickers in club history,

making 72-of-85 field goal attempts (84.7%) with 361

points. He ranks fourth in franchise record books in field

goals and fourth in scoring as part of a season where he is

ranked first in the NFL in scoring among kickers with 50

points.

Originally signed as a free agent out of Texas Christian in

2007 by Seattle, the hard-hitting Hawthorne has appeared

in 77 career games with 56 starts, posting 413 tackles (276

solo), seven sacks, seven interceptions, 15 passes de-

fensed, four forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.

Originally joining the Indianapolis Colts in 2009 out of North

Dakota State, Humber has appeared in 43 career games

with five starts and posted 51 tackles (29 solo), one sack,

two passes defensed and one forced fumble, while excel-

ling on special teams, where he has posted 48 career

stops, including three in 2013 to rank among team leaders.

After first going to training camp out of Southern Mississip-

pi with Indianapolis in 2006 and 2007, Johnson a Moss

Point, Miss. native, took his game to the Arena Football

League and CFL from 2008-10. He stuck to the Saints ros-

ter in 2011 and has appeared in 30 games, posting 59

tackles, three sacks, a pass defensed and a forced fumble.

Signed out of Illinois in 2007, Thomas led the club in rush-

ing in both 2008 and 2009 and has scored 33 career touch-

downs. Overall, he ranks seventh on the club’s all-time

rushing list with 674 carries for 3,11 yards, while his 4.6

yards per carry average ranks fourth in club record books.

He’s only the third player in franchise record books to have

3,000 yards rushing and 1,500 yards receiving. His 4,994

total yards from scrimmage rank seventh in club record

books and 22nd in NFL records for an undrafted player.

Signed out of West Texas A&M, the hard-running Robinson

earned a roster spot in the preseason when he led the club

in both rushing and receiving and led the league in rushing

and total yards from scrimmage (331) when he carried 49

times for 228 yards (4.7 avg.) and posted 11 receptions for

103 yards (9.4 avg.). Robinson has seen action out of the

backfield in the last three games and ranks third on the

club in rushing with 19 carries for 84 yards (4.4 avg.)

Ahead is a synopsis of the offensive line:

LEFT TACKLE Charles Brown - A 2010 second round

draft pick, this promising loffensive ineman earned the

starting left tackle job in the preseason and protects the

blindside of QB Drew Brees. The former University of

Southern California standout has opened seven games at

right tackle since 2011 and the first five of 2013 at left tack-

le for the fourth ranked offense in the NFL.

LEFT GUARD Ben Grubbs - Grubbs joined the Saints in

2012 as an unrestricted free agent and has moved into the

left guard slot after spending the first five seasons of his

career with Baltimore. Originally a first round selection

(29th overall) in the 2007 NFL Draft, Grubbs has played in

95 career games with 91 starts and was an integral part of

the Ravens’ offensive productivity in the passing game and

running game as the team set or tied several team records

between 2008-11. Enjoying a breakthrough campaign in

2011, Grubbs was selected to his first Pro Bowl. Since

coming to New Orleans, Grubbs has opened 21 straight

games at left guard.

CENTER Brian de la Puente - After spending the majority

of his first three NFL seasons on the practice squads of five

clubs, de la Puente assumed starting center duties early in

the 2011 season. Since his inclusion into the lineup, the

New Orleans offense has rolled up at least 400 yards in 26

of the 33 contests he has opened up in the middle of the

offensive line. In 2012, the Southern California native has

opened all five games for an offense ranked fourth in the

NFL in net yards per game and ninth in scoring.

RIGHT GUARD 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 interior linemen

and one of the top offensive linemen in franchise history.

Evans has been named to four consecutive Pro Bowls

since the 2009 season, all as a starter, as well as being

named Associated Press first-team All-Pro from 2009-12.

His 114 streak of straight starts which ended Sept. 22, vs.

Arizona, was the longest streak to begin a career in New

Orleans and the second-longest streak at the time by an

active NFL guard, tied for third-longest overall among NFL

players.

pick out of Northwestern has appeared in 99 regular sea-

son games and eight postseason contests. A team captain

for the second consecutive year, Strief has opened all five

games on the right side.

SCORING DEFENSE

After ranking 31st in opponent points per game in 2012,

under the coordination of Rob Ryan, New Orleans has ris-

en in the rankings to fifth as they have not given up 20

points in any of their contests, marking a five-game streak

of doing so for the first time since the 2000 season (six

game streak). It also marks the first time that the Saints

have given up below 20 points in the season’s first four

games since the 1992 campaign, when they did not do so

until the seventh contest of the season.

tion returns for a touchdown in 2012, the club tied for fourth

in the NFL. In 2013, New Orleans’ seven interceptions tie

for third in the NFL, with seven players recording one pick

apiece.

In his eighth season with the team, special teams coor-

dinator Greg McMahon’s units have consistently been de-

fined by solid performances by the kicking, coverage and

return games.

Stressing opportunistic play since 2006, the unit has re-

covered 14 fumbles, scored ten touchdowns - six on punt

returns and two on blocked punts – and blocked two punts,

four field goals and two extra points.

Since 2008, New Orleans has been ranked in the top 10

in kickoff return average three times and finished ranked

11th in the league in 2012, averaging 24.8 yards per return.

Running back Darren Sproles led the club with a 26.8

kickoff return average, while rookie running back Travaris

Cadet, who made the team as an undrafted free agent took

over primary kickoff return duties for the Black and Gold at

midseason and finished second among NFL rookies with a

26.5 return average, including a club-long 75-yard runback.

In 2013, Sproles has sparked the club’s punt return game

with several long returns, as his 8.7 average is currently

ranked fourth in the NFC and tenth in the NFL.

The club’s current specialists have enjoyed standout

performances throughout their tenures with the club. P

Thomas Morstead was selected to his first Pro Bowl fol-

lowing the 2012 season and has kept up the pace, aver-

averaging 47.7 gross and 44.3 net, while creating unfavor-

able field position for opponents, who have the league’s

11th lowest return average, during a period when the

Saints have faced some of the league’s elite return men. K

Garrett Hartley has booted 12-of-14 field goals in 2013,

including a game-winning 27-yard kick vs. Tampa Bay,

Sept. 15 and tying a career-high by booting four field goals

at Chicago on Sunday.

The coverage units were buoyed by a mixture of main-

stays and new additions. S Rafael Bush, acquired off of

waivers from the Denver Broncos at the conclusion of the

preseason, led the team with 15 special teams tackles in

2012, while recovering a fumble on punt coverage, which

would lead to a New Orleans touchdown, adding one cov-

erage stop in 2013. Inside linebackers Will Herring, voted

a special teams captain in 2013 and Ramon Humber fin-

ished tied for second on the club with 14 coverage stops

apiece in 2012, while also adding one and five respectively

through the season’s first five games in 2013. Rookie in-

side linebacker Kevin Reddick, an undrafted free agent

out of the University of North Carolina has proven to be a

find, as he currently leads the team with seven special

teams stops and one forced fumble.

DREW BREES

• Since first signing with New Orleans as a free agent in

2006, Brees has thrown for 4,000 or more yards each of his

seven seasons with the club, the only quarterback in Na-

tional Football League history to throw for 5,000 yards in

three different seasons, setting the league single-season

yardage record in 2011 and ranked at or near the top in

every passing category, both in single-seasons and over

the seven-year period as a member of the Saints, breaking

nearly every club record.

• In 2012, the seven-time Pro Bowl selection completed

422-of-670 throws (63.0%) for 5,177 yards with 43 touch-

down passes, 19 interceptions and a 96.3 passer rating, as

he was selected to the league’s All-Star game for the fourth

consecutive season . Brees finished the season ranked first

in the National Football League in both passing yardage

and touchdown passes. He joined Dan Marino (1984, 86),

as only the second signal-caller to have two seasons with

40 or more touchdown passes and in leading the league in

touchdown passes for a fourth time, tied an NFL record

held also by Johnny Unitas, Len Dawson, Steve Young and

Brett Favre. It also marked the fourth time in his seven sea-

sons as a Saint he led the league in passing yards (2006,

2008, 2011). Brees also finished tied for third in the NFL in

completions and ranked eighth in passer rating.

• In 2013, Brees is following up with another standout sea-

son, as he’s completed 140-of-201 passes (69.7%) for

1,722 yards, 12 touchdowns, four interceptions, one rush-

ing touchdown and a 107.4 passer rating. He’s furrently

ranked second in the NFL in passing yardage, third in com-

pletions, fourth in completion percentage, average gain

(8.57), touchdown passes and passer rating and sixth in

third down passer rating (100.3).

• Few players in the modern day free agency era have

made the impact that Brees has on the Saints, who is con-

sidered one of the most productive signings in league his-

tory. Since 2006, he leads the NFL with 35,293 yards, 256

touchdown passes, 4,541 attempts, 3,050 completions, a

67.2 % completion percentage, 64 games with at least 300

yards, ten with at least 400, 276 completions of 25 yards or

more and ranks fourth in the league with a 98.6 passer rat-

ing.

• Brees has been selected to play in six Pro Bowls as a

Saint, with seven overall berths in the National Football

League’s all-star game, twice as the conference’s starting

signal-caller. Brees is the only Saints quarterback to be

selected to the All-Star game more than twice. His six se-

lections as a Saint is tied for second all-time in club record

books.

• Brees has posted a 74-42 regular season record in

games he’s started since joining the Saints in 2006. Includ-

ing his five playoff victories, he’s recorded 79 total wins as

a Saint, making him the winningest quarterback in fran-

chise history. Brees’ win total ranks third among NFL signal

-callers since arriving in New Orleans in 2006.

• Clutch when it counts at the most important times for his

team, Brees has successfully engineered 22 regular sea-

son game-winning drives in the fourth quarter and overtime

as a Saint, including his most recent one against Tampa

Bay, Sept. 15. He’s also led a pair of comebacks in the

2009 postseason, including in overtime of the NFC

Championship game and the fourth quarter go-ahead scor-

ing drive for a touchdown in the team’s Super Bowl XLIV

victory.

• In his 13-year National Football League career, Brees has

completed 4,175-of-6,350 passes (65.7%) for 47,641

yards, 336 touchdown throws and a 94.7 rating. He’s the

National Football League’s all-time third-most accurate

passer, is ranked fourth in completions, sixth in touchdown

passes and passing yardage and seventh in passer rating.

He’s only the seventh player in NFL record books to throw

for at least 47,000 yards.

• Until he failed to throw for a touchdown at Atlanta, Nov.

29, 2012, Brees had thrown a touchdown pass in 54 con-

secutive regular season games, surpassing Johnny Unitas

for the longest streak in National Football League history

on October 7 vs. San Diego with his 48th. The streak

spanned four seasons from 2009-12.

• Twice in the past three seasons, Brees has passed for at

least 300 yards in an NFL-record nine consecutive games.

His most recent streak spanned both the 2012 and 2013

seasons and ended this past Sunday at Chicago.

1,300, the second-most receiving yards by one in NFL his-

tory, when he had a club record 99 catches for 1,310 yards

with 11 TDs in 2011.

• Despite being hampered by wrist and ankle injuries in

2012, Graham still managed 85 receptions for 982 yards

player has enjoyed one of the most prolific campaigns for a

tight end in NFL history through five games in 2013, lead-

ing the team in receiving with 37 receptions for 593 yards

(16.0 avg.) with six touchdowns.

• Leading tight ends in virtually every receiving category,

Graham is tied for second in the NFL in receiving, ranked

first in receiving yardage, tied for second in touchdown re-

ceptions and third in first downs (28). He captured NFC

Offensive Player of the Week honors for week three and

his 413 receiving yards over the final three contests of Sep-

tember is tied with Shannon Sharpe (1996) and Dave

Kocourek (1961) for the highest total by a tight end in a

three-game span, making him the first tight end to earn

sons at Tulsa is expected to be a solid contributor on the

defensive line in 2013. In three games, Walker has posted

defensive end rotation, playing in 12 games with one start

and posting 22 tackles (18 solo), ranking third on the team

with a career-high five takedowns and one fumble recov-

ery, while also tying a career-best by adding four stops on

son to move back to the linebacker position he played in

college, as they seek to take advantage of his pass rush

and run-stopping abilities and natural instincts in coverage.

PARYS HARALSON

• A student of the game, Haralson has played linebacker in

pass defenses. While also leading the team in stops, It was

the highest tackle total for a Saints defender since 1997,

while he also set a career-high in fumble recoveries, tying

for the team lead and for 15th in the NFL. In 2013, as the

Saints transition to a 3-4, Lofton’s run-defending and lead-

ership abilities in the middle of the New Orleans defense

will be integral to this change.

• During his six-year NFL career, Lofton has recorded dou-

ble-digit tackle totals in 38 games. With his team-best 157

tackles, Lofton reached double-digit figures in seven con-

tests in 2012 and has done so twice in 2013.

2012, Abdul-Quddus filled up the stat sheet by posting 36

tackles (24 solo), two interceptions, eight pass defenses

and one fumble recovery and nine special teams stops.

After suffering an ankle injury at the conclusion of the pre-

season that sidelined him for the first three games, he’s

posted one tackle in limited defensive action in two games

in 2013.

Saints-Bears: Regular Season Game 5

RAFAEL BUSH

• Claimed off of waivers at the conclusion of the 2012 pre-

season, this second-year safety was a constant on the

club’s special teams units, while also becoming an integral

part of the club’s multiple defensive back packages. In

2012, Bush appeared in all 16 games, ranking first on the

club with 15 special teams tackles and one fumble recov-

ery, while also chipping in 13 defensive tackles (nine solo),

a 40-yard interception return, one pass defense, one forced

fumble and one fumble recovery.

• Joining Abdul-Quddus as another diamond from the Divi-

sion 1-AA ranks, Bush has started the first two games of

his NFL career in consecutive weeks as a third safety and

has posted 16 tackles (14 solo), two passes defensed and

one fumble recovery, while also adding one stop on special

teams.

KENNY VACCARO

• A first-team All-American at the University of Texas and

one of the top-rated defensive backs in the 2013 NFL Draft,

the club’s first-round pick is a versatile defender who is ex-

pected to immediately became on asset on defense. He

started 32-of-51 games for the Longhorns and finished his

college career with 264 tackles, two sacks, 16 stops for

losses, five interceptions, 21 passes defensed, four forced

fumbles, one fumble recovery, two blocked kicks and 14

special teams stops. As a senior in 2012, he earned first-

team All-American and All-Big 12 as he totaled a team-

leading 107 tackles, four stops for a loss, two interceptions,

five passes defensed, two forced fumbles and a recovery.

• Vaccaro made his regular season debut in Black and

Gold vs. Atlanta, Sept. 8, a memorable one, as he opened

the contest in a nickel package and stayed on the field for

every defensive snap except for one. The hard-hitter post-

ed seven tackles, but his most significant play of the con-

test was the last defensive snap when he broke up a pass

in the end zone that was picked up by Harper for an inter-

ception to help preserve New Orleans’ 23-17 victory. He

has filled up the stat sheet as a candidate for NFL Defen-

sive Rookie of the Year as he has opened all five games in

the New Orleans secondary and ranks among club leaders

with 32 tackles (26 solo), one sack, one interception and

two pass defenses, while also making contributions on spe-

cial teams.

THOMAS MORSTEAD

• P Thomas Morstead, the club’s fifth round draft pick in

2009, was among the nation’s top punters at Southern

Methodist University and continued that trend in his three

years with the Saints. In 2012, he enjoyed one of the finest

seasons by a Saints punter, ranking second in the NFL in

both net (43.2) punting average and gross (50.1), as he

was selected to the Pro Bowl and named an Associated

Press second-team All-Pro.

45 of Morstead’s kickoffs sailed into the end zone for touch-

backs in 2012, tied for sixth in the NFL, to assist the New

Orleans defense in the battle for field position.

Thomas Morstead has established himself as one of the

most productive punters in NFL history through three sea-

sons as a member of the Saints after being picked by the

club in the fifth round of the 2009 NFL Draft. He’s the

team’s all-time leader in both gross (47.2) and net average

PUNT/KICKOFF COVERAGE UNITS

• Players who are expected to play key roles on coverage

units in 2013 include Abdul-Quddus, Bush, Cadet, Herring,

Humber, Reddick, CB Rod Sweeting, Vaccaro, White and

Wilson.

• Signed by New Orleans as an unrestricted free agent

from Seattle in 2011, Herring has been a stalwart on the

special teams units the past two seasons. In 2013, the

newly elected special teams captain has one stop to add to

his career total of 55.

• After ranking among team leaders with 11 special stops

as a rookie in 2011, Wilson, a converted linebacker, has

been important to the Saints both on defense and special

teams, where he finished ranked fourth on the club with a

career-high 13 stops and a blocked punt, which was recov-

ered and returned for a touchdown.

• After recording 17 special teams stops to lead the Indian-

apolis Colts team as a rookie in 2009 that faced the Saints

in Super Bowl XLIV, Humber joined the Saints in 2010 and

has since been an integral part of the club’s special teams

units. Posting 45 career special teams stops, Humber, re-

joined the club during training camp and finished tied for

second on the squad with Herring with 14 coverage tack-

les, adding two stops in 2013.

• Acquired off of waivers from the Denver Broncos for his

special teams acumen at the final 53-man roster cutdown,

Bush, a second-year veteran, made an immediate impact

as he led the Saints as he finished his first season in New

Orleans and first full NFL campaign ranked first on the club

with a career-high 15 special teams stops, also adding a

fumble recovery and also became a valued member of the

secondary, posting 16 tackles (14 solo), two passes de-

fensed and one fumble recovery, while also adding one

stop on special teams.

• Beating the odds to secure a roster spot as an undrafted

free agent, Reddick, a hard-hitting linebacker from the Uni-

versity of North Carolina was a two-time team captain for

the Tarheels who posted 275 career tackles. His tackling

ability will be an asset on special teams, where he leads

the team with seven stops and one forced fumble.

• Sweeting is an undrafted free agent from Georgia Tech

who also secured a roster spot based on his speed and

coverage skills that were displayed in the preseason. On

Sept. 15 at Tampa Bay, he recorded his first career special

teams tackle.
