New Orleans Saints’ Cam Jordan named NFC Defensive Player of the Week

New Orleans Saints’ Cameron Jordan officially dominated the Atlanta Falcons offensive line and Matt Ryan last Thursday. Jordan sacked the Falcons’ quarterback FOUR times! That brings Cam’s total to 13.5 sacks through 13 weeks, already the most of his career.

After having a four-sack game, Jordan is still in reach of his goal for 20 on the year. The NFL record for most sacks in a single season was Michael Strahan with 22.5. That would be ridiculous for Jordan.

Jordan has been largely overshadowed by the records that Michael Thomas is on pace to break as well, but Cameron deserves more praise than he has been getting.
