T Zach Strief

The Saints were without LT Jammal Brown today because of an ankle injury that limited him all week in practice. Another seventh round pick, T Zach Strief, dressed for the first time as a pro and started at the critical left tackle position. The result? Zero sacks on Drew Brees and a coaching staff that wasn't afraid to run behind the giant 6'7, 350 pound rookie from Northwestern. Lining up against one of the best pass rushers in the league, Strief matched DE Simeon Rice blow for blow for most of the game, and when Rice was able to out-fast Strief, Brees calmly stepped up and delivered the ball. Strief was called for a false start in the second quarter.

He held his own against one of the best - that's a good showing!!!!!
