He was a big part of that defense that year. I think he led the team in tackles. And for just a freshman playing free safety, that's pretty impressive. He came up with some big plays.
More Quotes from Drew Brees:
Definitely by training camp I'll be out there getting ready to have a great season. No concern whatsoever.Drew Brees
They guess right at times and we put ourselves in bad situations with second-and-longs and third-and-longs. We had guys coming through the line (unabated). LT got hit in the backfield a couple of times.

I think it's still at the point of learning how to finish games. I feel like last year we did a good job of it. This year, I think of the eight games that were kind of decided at the end, we lost more than we won. Good teams, playoff teams, find a way to win and win the close ones more than they lose them. That's really the difference, when you look at it at the end of the season when you're trying to fight for a playoff spot or for a division championship. Unfortunately, we were on the losing end of those. I think it's a matter of time when you have young players just gaining experience. You learn how to win.

We felt our defense had done its part, and it was time for us to do ours and put the game away.

I felt like we had the opportunity to do something special. I got the feeling that these guys really wanted me here. I think we've got a tremendous opportunity to win, and win very quickly. I know this town is craving a winner and we're going to get one.
