New Orleans Saints News and Information The New Orleans Saints followed up their surprise run in 2006 with a disappotining 2007 season.

Injuries and a poor start dug them a hole that they couldn't quite get out of, but 2008 promises to be a good season.

Running back Reggie Bush tore ligaments in his knee last year but has vowed to have a breakout season in 2008.

Wide receiver Marques Colston also missed time with an injury but is now 100 percent healthy. Deverey Henderson isn't much of a possession guy but does great hitting the home runs. He may not wrack up a ton of catches, but he can be explosive and give the Saints the big-play element.

Quarterback Drew Brees still had a solid season in 2007 and should come closer to his numbers from 2006 now that all of the weapons around him are back in the lineup and healthy. Brees has established himself was one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL, a testament to the improvement he has shown since his final season in San Diego.

Their only weakness on offense is at tight end, and rumors continue to persist that the Saints are very interested in trading for the New York Giants Jeremy Shockey.

While the Saints offense was a slight disappointment given their 2006 production, it was the defense that lost them games.

New Orleans is the favorite win the NFC South and could make a deep postseason run if their defense shows significant improvement.
