Saints coach Sean Payton gets extension (AP)

The New Orleans Saints have given coach Sean Payton a contract extension through 2015. The team says Monday that Payton has agreed to the deal. Payton took over as coach in 2006 and led the Saints to the NFC South title. Three years later, he guided them to their first conference championship, and they beat Indianapolis in the Super Bowl.

Saints vs. Packers: New Orleans' Offensive Game Plan for Thursday Night's Opener

The regular season is finally upon us! Thursday night the Saints and Packers will line up across from each other in a real football game—a game that matters.

Of course there will be tons of hoopla. And I do not want to dismiss that aspect of this game. But I want to point out the more schematic elements related to the Saints' success—or possibility of it.

Today I am dealing with the more interesting and dynamic matchup between Sean Payton and Dom Capers' units—the Saints offense and the Packers defense.

As with any game plan, there are multiple elements. I want to highlight the game plan in three main elements—base offense (first and second down), nickel (third down) and red zone—but not before outlining a basic scouting report of the opponents' defense—this week the Packers.

WEEK IN REVIEW/PREVIEW;Race is on for Indianapolis

In the few short years I've been doing this, we had a first in 2010 with someone actually guessing right. Two Express-News sports staffers brave enough to publish their Super Bowl predictions last September picked the Green Bay Packers to make the Super Bowl - Andrew Festa and Chuck Blount - and Festa had the Packers winning it all. Blount blew his excellent NFC prediction by going with the Cincinnati Bengals (homer pick) to win it all. The author of this piece had Cincy going all the way, too. I have no such excuse, and no one is making that mistake this time around.
