2008 New Orleans Saints Football Preview:
Last season was a rollercoaster for the Saints, as they would lose four straight, then subsequently win three, then repeat. Last year's Saints team was packed with an All-Star lineup, but the boys couldn't get rid of the preseason jitters all year long. Not this season, though. The New Orleans Saints are one of the NFL's toughest teams this season and are very likely to knock the NFC favorites out of the playoffs. The Saints will need to run the ball plenty this season to relieve QB Drew Brees of the 18 interceptions he threw last season. This year, the bets are all on Sean Payton and Reggie Bush - two performers who failed to move the ball up the field. You can bet that Bush and Payton are fiery for another chance to wreak havoc on the NFC. The 2008 New Orleans Saints are going to dazzle, and are sure to secure the playoff berth if they just take a deep breath, and do what they do best - play some football. Look for these Saints in the Super Bowl this season, because it is highly likely you will be watching them dominate come February.
By the way, make sure to grab some tickets to the Saints vs. Chargers game in London, England this season. The two teams will be playing at Wembley Stadium, continuing the tradition of American football played at Wembley. If you are in Europe this season, you should not miss the opportunity to see two of the best teams in NFL football play at the home of the English national football team.
