Max Unger started all 16 games in the 2017-18 season and bolstered one of the best rushing attacks in the National Football League, which ranked 5th in total rush yards in the NFL. The Saints averaged 129.4 rush yards per game, which also ranked 5th in the league.
Before the season started, one of the questions would be the strength of the Saints offensive line and the depth. The Saints proved week in and week out that they had one of the top offensive lines in the league even with injuries to starting right tackle Zach Strief.
