Victories driven by a big-play offense. Victories by a wide margin. Victories … victories … and more victories.

Evans was a fullback on the New England Patriots when they finished the 2007 regular season 16-0. There is a lot about that experience that reminds him of what is unfolding with his current team, the 5-0 New Orleans Saints.

“I see a bunch of guys excited about playing together,” Evans said. “These guys are getting a taste of (non-stop) winning. Dave (Thomas, a backup tight end and former Patriot) and I had it when we were on that ‘07 team, and you start racking them up.”

The Saints haven’t racked up many as large as the one they did on Sunday, with a 48-27 pounding of the previously unbeaten New York Giants.  Read full story here

A game that seemingly was going to be decided by Philip Rivers instead was sealed by Lewis.

The Chargers needed a touchdown to win and had the ball on Baltimore’s 15 with 33 seconds left. But Lewis came in unblocked and slammed Sproles to the ground for a 5-yard loss, and the Ravens (2-0) ran out the clock.

The Chargers ran the play earlier but Lewis missed the tackle. Read full story here
