Zach Strief has a habit of beating the odds.
He did so as a seventh-round draft pick in 2006 who lasted 12 seasons in the NFL and made almost 100 starts as a New Orleans Saints offensive tackle. Strief, who retired in March, was given his next challenge Wednesday (July 25) when he was officially named the Saints' new radio play-by-play announcer despite having virtually no broadcast experience. WWL-AM announced the news. He's replacing the legendary Jim Henderson, who served as "Voice of the Saints" for 32 seasons before retiring Feb. 1. https://expo.advance.net/img/d97a175...rement0185.jpg read more on NOLA |

I know he won't be perfect at first, but I think he's a great choice. Smart guy, well spoken, smart, professional. I love it. Welcome back to the team Zach!

A former seventh round pick, barely makes it out of training camp his rookie season, patiently backing up Stinchcomb for five years till he got his opportunity, becoming one of the league's best right tackles - he's an underdog in every sense and his journey, as much as anything else, makes him a great candidate to be the Voice of the Saints...

He'll be putting that Northwestern University education to use. More broadcasters and journalists have earned their degrees from that school than any other.

Looking forward hearing a deeper perspective on the OL and perfect time for it. The blocking was outstanding last year but it was not discussed that much. Kamara and MI were great but it takes a lot of dirty duck feet kicking around to make them glide across the field. Not taking anything away from them but the blocking is the engine that makes it go.
