Gridiron Gab NFL Preseason Power Rankings
1. New Orleans Saints – Improved ground game for Drew Brees is scary to think about. Mark Ingram has the best interior line in football to work with. A loaded defensive front combined with a top-tier secondary has coordinator Gregg Williams smiling. Gotta love Sean Payton’s aggressive play calling on offense. Superdome is the definition [...]
