Celizic: ‘Magnificent’ game cements Brees in NFL lore

Drew Brees may or may not be six feet tall. His surgically repaired arm isn’t the strongest in the game. And while he had piled up some impressive statistics in his career, how many Super Bowl rings did he have?

Rosenthal: Saints’ supporting cast ready for main stage

When Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams popped off the other day on a radio show and said his Saints defense was going to try to put some “remember-me” shots on Indianapolis quarterback Peyton Manning until “he doesn’t get back up and play again,” Williams uttered the most controversial quote so far in the otherwise uneventful buildup to Sunday’s Super Bowl. He put a bull's-eye on his own team’s back, not just Manning’s. One false step and flags may fly.
