Another week of football Womens Alvin Kamara Jersey , and another week of our Interview with the Enemy series. This week, our friend, Edward Valetine of Big Blue View, answers 5 quick questions about our week four matchup against Eli Manning and the New York Giants.***After struggling mightily at times (actually leading to an eventual one-week benching), how has Eli Manning looked thus far in 2018?The Giants worked to improve their offensive line during the 2017 offseason, but early reports are that the line has failed to impress through the season’s first three weeks - is this a long-term concern, or just an issue of players that have yet to get into a groove together?How is the overall health of the Giants heading into Week 4? Any key injuries?Who is one Giants player that Saints fans might not be familiar with that you expect to make an impact in this game?What’s your prediction for the game? Final score? ***A big thanks to Edward for taking the time to answer our questions. Make sure you check out his work and the rest of the good folks at Big Blue View for tons of Giants content.

Drew Brees used one hand to hold his helmet and the other to wipe away tears.It was the first time the 39-year-old Brees had ever walked off of a football field knowing that he had thrown for more yards than any quarterback in the history of the NFL. And the Saints quarterback couldn't help but be overwhelmed by thoughts of all the work and people who helped him get to such an esteemed point."I broke down and cried a bunch of times this week, just thinking about so many things Womens Josh LeRibeus Jersey ," Brees said after his latest NFL-record-setting performance in a 43-19 victory over the Washington Redskins on Monday night. "I think about all the people who have influenced my life in such a powerful way, and there were so many of those people that were here tonight, that witnessed this, so many people that I spoke to this week that are a part of this, and so many other still that I have yet to have a chance to reach out to."Two of the people who had biggest influence on my football career certainly and on who I am, growing up, are my mom and my grandfather and they're in heaven. They're no longer here, but I know that they would be proud," Brees added.The 6-foot Brees was lightly recruited out of high school in Austin, Texas Womens Benjamin Watson Jersey , considered undersized for a quarterback at the major college and pro levels. He led Purdue to the Rose Bowl and was a Heisman Trophy finalist, but no NFL team picked him in the first round of the 2001 draft. Brees' first team, the Chargers, discarded him after a shoulder injury in 2005, setting the stage for his arrival in New Orleans and his emergence as one of the most prolific quarterbacks ever.His latest outing would have been memorable even if no records were in play. He completed 26 of 29 passes for 363 yards and three TDs. His second touchdown was a 62-yarder to rookie Tre'Quan Smith that put Brees ahead of Peyton Manning's previous all-time mark of 71,940 yards.Moments after that touchdown, the NFL halted the game for about three minutes so the ball could be handed over to Pro Football Hall of Fame officials. Brees was able to embrace his family and coach Sean Payton on the sideline."It's a beautiful thing, a beautiful experience for all of us," said Saint left tackle Terron Armstead, the first teammate to hug Brees after the record-setting completion to Smith. "The energy in the stadium at that time Youth Cameron Jordan Jersey , I thought he was going to cry, really. He's a tough dude, he probably didn't want to show that side. But it was an amazing experience."Some other things to know about the Saints' victory over Washington:RISING ROOKIESmith is a third-round draft choice out of Central Florida who, in his fifth NFL game, became immortalized for his role in Brees' record-breaking night."Now I get to go down in history with somebody famous in (future) Hall of Famer Drew Brees," Smith said. "I'm glad it happened to me."And Brees is glad to see Smith emerging into the player he showed signs of becoming in training camp. Smith finished with three catches for 111 yards and two touchdowns."This kid could really help us, could really be a big part of our offense," Brees said.NON-STAR TREATMENTCornerback Josh Norman is supposed to be the centerpiece for a Redskins defense that had allowed the fewest passing yards in the NFL entering the game against the Saints, but he struggled just as much as the rest of the secondary as Drew Brees threw for 250 yards in the first half.Coach Jay Gruden even benched Norman for the first series of the second half, but the move backfired when his replacement Womens Patrick Robinson Jersey , Greg Stroman, was beaten for an easy touchdown by Smith. Norman returned on the next series.INGRAM'S BACKMark Ingram wasted little time putting his imprint on his first game back from a four-game suspension for use of a banned substance. He scored two of the Saints first three touchdowns on short runs and finished with 53 yards rushing and 20 receiving."Just an exciting moment just being back with my teammates," Ingram said. "Just a lot of pent-up emotion, being away from my guys, being able to come back out here. I don't take anything about this game for granted."PETERING OUTVeteran running back Adrian Peterson was looking resurgent coming into a game against the team that traded him away early last season.He left the Superdome with a shoulder strain and was scheduled for an MRI.Before his injury, Peterson gained 36 yards on two catches out of the backfield, but had only 6 yards rushing on four carries.
