Monday's Headlines on the GB game

What would be yours with a brief capsule?

mine-
SAINTS MAKE HISTORY THE HARD WAY

For the first time in the franchise's 40 year history they opened the season with two road wins. They did it the hard way though. A 13-0 Green Bay lead at the first quarter looked like the opening of last year's 52-3 debacle on the same field. The Saints proved scrappy on both offense and defense coming back solidly in the second quarter for a 14-13 lead at half. Both teams virtually abandoned the run in the second half and a shootout ensued. Farve can still sling it but the lack of supporting cast became all the more obvious as the game progressed. After the early NO miscues Brees spread the ball around successfully. Sean Payton starts Head Coaching career off 2-0 with a team that won only 3 games last year. Next week's Monday Night showdown with the rival Falcons will not only be an emotional affair for the city of New Orleans but for sole posession of the NFC South lead also.

New Orleans Saints Green Bay Win Shows Team Not Bush League

"Everything is going crazy, from the media, from the fans, from everyone," said Saints coach Sean Payton. "We just have to stay focused. We have to be mentally and physically prepared to play. Atlanta is unbeaten. ItÃƒÂ‚Ã‚Â´s going to be a game."

The Saints credited their superior conditioning to helping them win their second straight. Training camp could be more grueling next summer when the coaches hear this.

"YouÃƒÂ‚Ã‚Â´ll go a long time before you see another win after you turn the ball over three times in the first quarter on the road," said Payton. "ThatÃƒÂ‚Ã‚Â´s just going against the numbers."

Not sure where else to post this, but here goes.

The official team website used to have postgame interviews/press conferences, but now they are not being posted. Can anyone tell me where I can find them now?
Thanks.
