I would be a little concerned with any tackle against those bookends, but Brown is (supposedly) at his best in pass protection, so if DLP starts at center, maybe the Saints can run more effectively off guard through the middle, which could make the DEs rush more hesitantly and make the play action more effective.

The key is probably getting the ball out of Brees' hands as quickly as possible with slants and quick outs, and an effective running game coupled with play action should give Brees a little more time to pick apart the Colts' backfield.

I've got to say that Brown has been performing above my expectations - while that is not saying much - and it could be that with a few more games his nerves might start to calm down eliminating those false start calls. Still, I'd be interested in seeing McQuistan in action - either as the RT or as an extra lineman to help out Brown.
