Sean Payton
Devery Henderson Is Deaf To His Doubters
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devery Henderson (along with DE Will Smith) is the longest tenured player on the team. During his 8 year career, there have been tons of doubters and harsh critics of Devery's game. Many suggested that he be cut, or traded, or not resigned. Many are now eating some crow. Devery is deaf to his doubters. He quietly does his job, and so far in this 2011 season, does it extremely well.
Saints Reach Several Milestones In Win Over Bears
Saints Extend Payton
The New Orleans Saints announced on Monday that the team, and head coach Sean Payton have agreed to a multi-year contract extension.
In 2006, in Payton's first season at the helm, the Saints reached the NFC Championship game for the first time in team history.
Payton helped the team achieve another first in 2009, guiding the Saints to a Super Bowl win over the Indianapolis Colts.
Saints Want Balanced Offensive Attack
When a team has a quarterback the caliber of Drew Brees, to go along with a crop of receivers the likes of Marques Colston, Lance Moore, Devery Henderson, and Robert Meachem, they be would foolish not to put the football in the air a fair-share of times.
The New Orleans Saints will indeed not be bashful about letting the football fly through the air this year, but they also want some balance with a solid running game.
Saints Add Veteran TE John Gilmore
Since he's been the head coach of the New Orleans Saints, Sean Payton has never kept less than 3 tight ends on the active roster. When the Saints announced their cuts on Saturday, fans were surprised to see only 2 TEs on the list. That lasted only 2 days, as the Saints will go into the season opener this Thursday with 3. New Orleans added 10 year veteran TE John Gilmore.
Saints Injury Report For Raiders Game
The New Orleans Saints will take on the Oakland Raiders in week 3 of the preseason this Sunday.

However, several starters will miss the game with injuries, as well as a handful of backups.
