New Orleans Saints linebacker Curtis Lofton loves the Who Dat Nation

WhoDat!656 · 06-07-2012, 08:13 PM

Here's an early prediction from New Orleans Saints mini-camp workouts: First-year linebacker Curtis Lofton is going to quickly become a fan favorite. First of all, Lofton is a very good player. He's slated to start at middle linebacker and replace suspended captain Jonathan Vilma as the defensive signal caller.

Tell that to caddieman and the rest of the haters...

Along the way, he's discovered the passionate support of Saints fans, a refreshing change from his pro experience in Atlanta, where he played from 2008 to 2011.

"It's not even comparable," Lofton said. "I know people are going to get mad at me, but what, I can't tell the truth? Everyone in this city loves the Saints."

There is a good reason that Atl can usually be found at the bottom of lists ranking sports cities and fans......

Glad to have him! Especially nice to hear he's enjoying the city & culture, hope the whole experience is a good one for him.

When you read about him he sounds like not only a good player but also a good person. This might be a great pickup.

A change of scenery may be just what the Dr ordered for Curtis.

He sounds a lot like Vilma, and while probably not as smooth against the pass, is better versus the run.

Yep, he looks like the kind of leader you look for. And of course he loves us........we're fun!!!
