Re: What are your Top 10 Favorite All Time Saints?
In no particular order:
- Morten Anderson - "The Great Dane", MSU All-American - Wille Roaf - HOF'er, gotta' respect offensive lineman who so often toil in obscurity - Sean Payton - coaching great who turned a franchise around ... on par with the likes of Scotty Bowman, Sparky Anderson and others, IMO. - Tom Dempsey - anyone who can kick a ball that far with only half a foot gets my vote - Kyle Turley - the world needs more enforcers - Thomas Morestead - at one point, a season or two ago, he was the best tackler on special teams, or so it seemed - Jimmy Graham - redefined the touchdown celebration by wrecking the goal posts - Steve Gleason - for the 'block heard round the world' ... and it was against the Failclowns, which made it even more special, ![]() - Bobby Hebert - won championships with the Michigan Panthers (USFL) & has my undying gratitude for that one brief, shining moment he brought winning football to Detroit - Drew Brees - how can you not love the guy? honorable mention: - Tom Lelito - hasn't really done anything (yet), but a Michigan 'local boy' done good - Joe Horn - the whole 'barbecue sauce' thing won me over - Reggie Bush/Joique Bell - first running back tandem in NFL history to each record 500+ rushing/receiving yds in one season, albeit for the Lions ... but we all know where they got their grit from, ![]() - Lance Moore - 'cuz his Mama raised him right & he was a darn good route-runner. dishonorable mention: - Pat Swilling - came to Detroit, insisted on wearing a previously retired number of one of Detroit's all-time greats (#56, Joe Schmidt) & was then a flop. |

Re: What are your Top 10 Favorite All Time Saints?
#1 Danny Abramowicz held the NFL record for most consecutive games with a t least one catch and all of the Saints receiving records until Eric Martin. He has to be on this list and no way Devery can take his place.(and I love Devery), plus he coached me to play WR at Jesuit., #2 Dalton Hilliard, 3 # Archie Manning, # 4 Deuce Mcallister, # 5 Eric Martin, #6 Rickey Jackson, # 7 Sam Mills, # 8 Drew Brees, # 9 Sam Mills, # 10 Willey Roaf. Hard to leave off.......Bobby Hebert, Joe Horn, Pat Swilling, Ironhead, Vaughn Johnson, and of course Morten Anderson.
