Darren Sproles, Jimmy Graham get game balls for strong performances against Jacksonville Jaguars

10-02-2011, 09:11 PM

Here are the game balls we're giving out to New Orleans Saints players following their 23-10 victory over the Jacksonsville Jaguars.

Game ball No. 1: Running back Darren Sproles.
He ran the ball seven times for 75, inlcuding a key 34-yard scamper in the second half and he had five receptions for 56 yards plus 57 yards in the return game.
Game ball No. 2: Tight end Jimmy Graham.
Brees threw the ball to him 14 times and Graham snagged 10 of those for a game-high 132 yards and a touchdown.
Game ball No. 3: Defensive end Will Smith.
He sacked quarterback Blaine Gabbert twice and nearly sacked him on several other plays.
Game ball No. 4: Cornerback Patrick Robinson.
The second-year player scored the first interception of his pro career in the second half when he stepped in front of a Gabbert pass.

Graham was a beast!

When you release Dallas Clark and keep Graham in your keeper league; plus, plays for the Saints - gotta tell ya, like my chances against a Rubik's Cube right about now...
