METAIRIE, La. (AP) -Gregg Williams says yards allowed is a statistic for others to worry about.
New Orleans’ defensive coordinator says the only defenses that matter in the NFL are ones that are feared. He says he wants his unit playing a hard-hitting, high-speed style that gives the Saints the best chance to turn an opponent’s mistake into points.
When the Saints had key starters injured late in the season, they gave up more than 400 yards in three of their last five games, losing two.
New Orleans rebounded in its playoff-opening 45-14 win over Arizona, forcing six punts, two turnovers and getting a sack while holding Kurt Warner without a TD pass. New Orleans will try to do the same against Minnesota’s Brett Favre in the NFC title game Sunday.
