METAIRIE, La. ― When Jonathan Goodwin decided to ply his trade elsewhere, the Saints were left in a hole at center.
They signed veteran Olin Kreutz but he walked away from football after the sixth game of the season. But football is a game of opportunity and for Brian de la Puente, the timing was right. Now he’s a trusted mainstay on the line. “He’s been awesome,” Saints quarterback Drew Brees said. “That’s a good way to put it. He’s Mr. Steady.” The Saints offense has thrived with de la Puente at center. This past week he helped pave the way for 195 yards rushing. Full article.

I think our line has improved with D.L.P., also with Strief back.

I like it when a guy grabs the opportunity and runs with it. He has been good for us so far.

...and I read somewhere our record has been excellent the past couple of years in November.
Time for us to rise and shine... and to shake off the doubters. |
