Story Archives: Saints make everyone a believer


Saints make everyone a believer
by Joey Martin - posted E-mail Story E-mail Story | Print Story Print Story 
I didn't believe the Saints could pull it off. Not on this kind of stage against a team that was used to the spotlight. Not with a bend-but-not-break defense going up against what many feel is the best quarterback to play the game. And certainly not after spotting the Colts 10 points.

I actually thought Joseph Addai was going to have a field day going against a porous Saint run defense. He finished with 77 yards on 13 carries, although after the first quarter it appeared he was on his way to a 177-yard rushing game.

But the Saints showed poise. That's right, the team making its first appearance on the biggest NFL stage there is showed poise.
