LT Jermon Bushrod - A 2007 fourth round draft pick,this promising young lineman helped spur the NFL’ssixth ranked running game in 2009. The Towson prod-uct has continued adding strength and working on tech-nique as he continues to line up against many of theNFL’s elite pass rushers in his second season starting.

LG Carl Nicks - This 6-5, 343 pound mauler who wasa 2008 fifth-round draft choice, needed very little time tomake a smooth transition to life in the NFL trenches.Selected for All-Rookie honors by several publications,Nicks has opened every contest since the fourth of hisfirst year and combines with Jahri Evans for one of theNFL’s top young interior combinations.

C Jonathan Goodwin - Goodwin took the starting reinsof the club’s center position in 2008 and has distin-guished himself in pass protection, run blocking andmaking line calls, opening 41 games in the middle ofthe line as a Saint. He’s coming off a standout 2009campaign where he was recognized with a Pro Bowlselection for the first time in his nine-year NFL career.

RG Jahri Evans - The 2006 fourth round draft choicehas made a rapid ascent from his small school roots atBloomsburg into one of the NFL’s top right guards.Evans was named to his first Pro Bowl in 2009 as astarter, elected a starter. His 74 straight starts with theSaints is the longest streak in team history among of-fensive linemen to begin a career and tied with linemateand RT Jon Stinchcomb as the most by a currentSaint. Evans’ streak of consecutive starts to begin a ca-reer is ranked third overall among all players in Saintsrecord books. Re-signed to a seven-year contract in theoffseason, Evans is expected to be a cornerstone of theline for years to come in New Orleans.

• Sharper has backed up his reputation as one of theleague’s top defensive playmakers in New Orleans,tying for first in the NFL with a career-high tying nine in-terceptions in 2009, including two multiple pick per-formances. A career-high and club record three of hisinterceptions were returned for touchdowns, while headded 93 tackles (55 solo), half a sack and seven passdefenses. Sharper’s 376 interception return yards wasthe highest single season total in NFL record books.Shaper was named as a Pro Bowl starter for the fifthtime in his career.

• After missing the first six games of the 2010 season onthe physically unable to perform list following offseasonknee surgery, Sharper returned to the club’s defensivebackfield vs. Cleveland, Oct. 24 and has recorded 11tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery inthree appearances with one start.

• Sharper made four tackles in the backfield rotation vs.Pittsburgh, Oct. 31, but saved his best for last as hisfourth quarter recovery of a fumble by Steelers TEHeath Miller led to the score that would ice the win.

• Sharper received his first start of the season at Car-olina, Nov. 7 in his 200th career NFL appearance andforced a first quarter fumble on a big hit of Panthers RBJonathan Stewart that was recovered by the Saintsand led to their first touchdown. Sharper also notchedfive tackles (three solo).

USAMA YOUNG

• Young, chosen by the Saints in the third round of the2007 NFL Draft, is another member of that class whohas shown steady improvement. The speedster has ap-peared in 50 games with six starts, recording 60 tack-les (54 solo), three interceptions, one sack and ninepasses defensed while continuing to be a stalwart onthe special teams units where he has garnered 51 stopsand two fumble recoveries. Like Jenkins this season,Young moved from cornerback to safety in 2009, serv-ing as Sharper’s understudy. He’s started three gamesin nine appearances in 2010 and made 15 tackles (14solo), one sack and two pass defenses.

• Due to injuries, Young was forced to move over tostrong safety vs. Carolina, Oct. 3 and responded withsix solo tackles and one sack. His tackle of PanthersRB DeAngelo Williams for a four-yard loss on theirfinal drive put Carolina back at the 40-yard line andhelped keep them out of field goal range.

• Hartley’s game-winner against the Minnesota Vikingsin the NFC Championship game sent New Orleans tothe Super Bowl for the first time in NFL history. In SuperBowl XLIV, he was the first player to kick three fieldgoals of 40-or-more yards in the history of the game.

• Hartley’s 13 consecutive successful field goals in2008, is tied for the third longest streak by an NFLrookie. His first field goal at Washington, Dec. 6, 2009and 14th straight overall, broke a ten-year-old leaguerecord for consecutive field goals to start a career. Withhis first two subsequent successful attempts carryingover into the 2009 season, he had booted 16 straightfield goals, before the first miss of his career.

Sean Payton has taken the NewOrleans Saints to success that ithas not experienced before,leading the team to a 31-17 vic-tory over the Indianapolis Coltsin Super Bowl XLIV.Payton finished his fourth sea-son with a 13-3 record and hissecond NFC South title, settingteam records for wins, longestwinning streak (13) and divisiontitles (2). As the Saints started off with a13-0 start, the best beginningsince the franchise existed, Pay-ton’s squad scored a club record510 points, the ninth-highest sin-gle-season total in NFL history.While the offense was rankedfirst for the second consecutiveyear and third time in four sea-sons, Payton oversaw a significant change in theSaints defense with the hiring of new coordinatorGregg Williams. This feisty unit scored a league-lead-ing eight defensive touchdowns.Payton has instilled a winning culture, stressing theprinciples of responsibility, character and accountabil-ity. He’s built the roster and put together a staff deep inteachers of the fundamentals. In 2008, the Saints ranked No. 1 in the NFL in total of-fense for only the second time – duplicating the featoriginally achieved in 2006, Payton’s first season withthe team. With Payton serving as play-caller, last sea-son, the Saints set club records for total yards (6,571),net passing yardage (4,977) and first downs (354).In 2007, the Saints endured injuries and a slow start,but put together a four-game winning streak. New Or-leans finished ranked No. 4 in the NFL in total offense,holding nine opponents to 17 points or fewer.Payton scrapped the traditional timetable for rebuild-ing an NFL club in 2006. In his opening season as ahead coach, the Saints jumped out to a 3-0 record-afirst in team history for a first-year black and goldcoach,equaling the team’s win total from the previousyear-and clinched the NFC South title before the sea-son finale. New Orleans led the NFL in total offenseand played in the NFC Championship for the first time.

When the season came to a close, Payton wasvoted NFL Coach of the Year by the AP, Pro FootballWeekly/PFWA, Sporting News and the Maxwell Club.

Payton was hired as the 14th head coach in Saintshistory on January 18, 2006 after being a member ofthe Dallas Cowboys coaching staff since 2003. He en-ters his 13th NFL season and 21st overall in coaching.

Forthe previous two years, heserved as the club’s assistanthead coach/quarterbacks.In 2005, the Cowboys tied forsecond in the NFC with 318first downs. When Payton ar-rived, Dallas had ranked 31st inpassing the previous year, butimmediately improved to 17th.Payton arrived in Dallas afterfour years with the New YorkGiants, the last three as offen-sive coordinator after spendinghis first as quarterbacks coach.He solidified his reputation asone of the NFL’s top offensive

minds in 2000. In his first season as coordinator, theGiants won the NFC title and played in Super BowlXXXV. They scored 328 points – their highest totalsince 1990 – finished 13th in the NFL in total offense.Payton was first assigned play-calling duties prior to acontest on Dec. 5, 1999. The Giants responded byscoring a season-high 41 points and gaining 490 yardsof offense. He retained that assignment over the finalfive games. The Giants passing attack continually im-proved, ranking 13th in the NFL in 2000, tied for eighthin 2001 and ranked sixth in 2002. In 2002, the Giantsfinished sixth overall in total offense, the team’s high-est ranking since 1985. In the decade prior to his ar-rival, they hadn’t ranked above 20th. Prior to joiningthe Giants, he spent 1997 and 1998 as Philadelphia’squarterbacks coach. Payton wrapped two coaching stints at San Diego St.(1988-89 and 1992-93) around a stop at Indiana St.During his second stretch with the Aztecs, he was run-ning backs coach, working with Heisman runner-upMarshall Faulk before becoming quarterbacks coach.Following the 1993 season, Payton moved to Miami ofOhio (1994-95). He spent 1996 as quarterbacks coachat the University of Illinois before entering the NFL.Payton earned a bachelor’s degree in communicationsat Eastern Illinois, where he passed for 10,665 yards,then the third-highest total in NCAA Division I-AA his-tory.
