Three of these kids belong together

Three of these kids are kind of the same

But one of these kids is doing his own thing

Now it's time to play our game...

Out of all the NFL players I have seen on the field, I can safely say that no current player has more desire than Pierre

When he runs you can see the desire, he refuses to go down, he will always get the extra yards and will not run out of bounds, he will hit some one first

... that's what I noticed about PT in the Saints/Lions playoff game last season ... a lot of heart, breaks tackles ... I was kinda' under the impression you guys already had the best backfield in the NFL.

I love our backfield, especially PT's running style, the way he pinballs off of would be tacklers, and keeps going forward, spinning, twisting until he either scores or goes down. I'm really high on our guys. Sproles gives us an added dimension with his speed and versatility. Ingrahm & Ivory give us power. We should be fine in the running game as long as they stay healthy.
