Leading up to kickoff each week, I will spend time talking to various NFL beat writers who cover the Eagles’ opponents to gain some insight. This week, I spoke with New Orleans Saints reporter Nick Underhill from The New Orleans Advocate for my “Behind Enemy Lines” series.
Nick began covering the Saints prior to the 2014 season after previously covering the New England Patriots.
Here’s my Q&A with Nick:
AD: Michael Thomas has really elevated his play this year. Being around the team every day, what makes Michael so good and what has enabled him to take his game to the next level?
NU: I’m not sure I’ve covered a player who oozes determination like him. I know that sounds corny. I don’t typically sell or buy into and sell stupid storylines that I’d scoff and call it lazy if I read it somewhere else, but Thomas’ hunger is his defining characteristic. I think you can see it in the way he plays the game. There is almost a violence in every movement he makes on the field.
