New Orleans Saints' Jabari Greer's, Tracy Porter's reputations as playmakers are growing

QBREES9 · 08-19-2010, 01:13 PM

By the end of next week, the Saints' defense will have spent time working against four of the league's top five passing teams from last season (No. 1 Houston, No. 3 New England, No. 4 New Orleans and No. 5 San Diego).

They'll face a quartet of Pro Bowl quarterbacks (Drew Brees, Tom Brady, Matt Schaub and Philip Rivers) and square off against dynamic receivers of all shapes and sizes (Randy Moss, Wes Welker, Marques Colston, Lance Moore, Andre Johnson and Vincent Jackson).
"They're some of the top receivers in our game," Saints cornerback Jabari Greer said Wednesday after a joint practice against the Houston Texans. "To be able to work with them, it sharpens our skills, and it allows us to measure ourselves against some of the best competition."

Funny how we went from having some of the worst CB in the league to having possibly the best defensive backfield in the league in one year. And we should be even better this year!

It's amazing how quickly our backfield improved. One of the first things Payton did when he came here was to start upgrading our secondary. We had a few corners that didn't work out but the ones that did have become tops in the league.
