Perfect sense: It’s fitting that Drew Brees and Matt Ryan made the squad because there has been a lot of talk about which one is the best quarterback in the NFC South. The New Orleans Saints defeated the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night, after the voting had concluded, but I say Brees and Ryan have had equally good seasons. They’re on the squad as backups to former NFC South player Michael Vick. It says a lot that Brees and Ryan made the team ahead of Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers.

New Orleans Saints middle linebacker Jonathan Vilma was selected the 2010 Saints’ “Man of the Year,” the team announced Tuesday.
One of the most prestigious awards in the NFL, the honor is voted on annually by members of the media, Saints front office staff and local non-profit and business executives.

TLANTA — If the New Orleans Saints go on to win a second consecutive Super Bowl title, “Who Dat” nation will forever remember quarterback Drew Brees for “The Tackle.”
Before Brees punched a Monday night return postseason trip for the reigning Super Bowl champions with his late touchdown pass to rookie tight end Jimmy Graham, his touchdown-saving tackle enabled the Saints to keep alive their hopes of stamping themselves a dynasty and the first back-to-back Super Bowl winners since the 2003-2004 New England Patriots.

ATLANTA — So this is the look of friendly hatred in pro football. It often is goofy. It is a slew of New Orleans Saints players embarrassing themselves by returning to the visiting turf of the Georgia Dome on Monday night for a group picture after surviving the Atlanta Falcons down the stretch.
Memo to the Saints: this is the NFL, not Pop Warner League.
To be fair, linebacker Jonathan Vilma insisted after the Saints’ 17-14 victory over their biggest rivals that this wasn’t unusual.
He said it only was about memories.

Recapping the New Orleans Saints’ 17-14 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night at the Georgia Dome
DID YOU SEE?
PENALTIES
It’s a lament Coach Sean Payton has sounded more than once in 2010 and the fluttering yellow flags haunted the Saints again Monday night.
By the time it was over, New Orleans had been flagged eight times for 92 yards, statistics that don’t reflect penalties Atlanta chose to decline. Such figures are damaging in and of themselves but they were magnified more than once by the critical situations in which they occurred.
