Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Mike Garafolo of USA Today reports that Brees gave a speech to the Saints offense on Wednesday designed to send a message that it is time to stop making excuses and start playing better football. He also declined some of the interview requests that he regularly accepts in order to make it clear that the only focus on anyone’s mind in New Orleans should be getting better on the field.

“The message was you have to find a way for you to play better,” tackle Zach Strief said of Brees’ speech. “Don’t look outside of you, don’t point at another guy, don’t look for the answer anywhere but inside yourself.”

not sure what to think about it yet...
Good job for Brees but why isnt the coaching staff delivering motivational speeches???? kromer is a god damn joke. The team really does look like an extension of him on the field...mellow, soft, lack of urgency, boring, etc, etc...

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Sad that it has come to this...

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Don't blame this on Kromer. He isn't the one going out there and blowing coverages and missing tackles.

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

What took so long Drew, how about you go talk to the defense as well. This is all well and good but this should fall on the coaches not the players. Kromer has shown he really isn't the guy that should of taken Vitt's place if Drew has to do the motivational speeches

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Stop sending messages to the team.... Send them to the opponent on Sunday.

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Can't hurt. Winning this weekend would certainly get things back on track.

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

When will the Saints win their first game?

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Neither is Brees!

Sunday

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Plenty of blame to go around, Drew. Be the leader, and be realistic ...

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

dont forget missing blocks and dropping passes

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

When they score more points than the other team before time runs out in the 4th quarter...

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

But coaches are responsible for fixing that when it happens too often.

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

true, or why have coaches?

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

No he is throwing picks instead.

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Much like the replacement refs, Kromer is in over his head as a HC right now. Our praised o-line of the last few years looks like garbage. Kromer is having to focus on too many things right now and having a first year guy like Grubbs learning our blocking scheme and cadence, De La Puente, Strief and Bushrod being average players at best, he is not making the adjustments on the line and in the blocking calls to offset this anymore. For the same reason they didn't want to overwhelm Spagnuolo away from his defensive responsibilities, they have done it to Kromer and it shows in our o-line play.

Sunday, THIS Sundday !

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

We played better under the BOUNTY! I say we go back to a BOUNTY SYSTEM!

Alaska

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

We need this game. We will take it. Yeah Green Bay is outraged that they got screwed. Oh well. I can name several calls that tipped the game against us. That interference call against Harper is killed us in game 1. Last week the clear offensive PI and holding noncalls on the last drive killed us.Weshould be just as outraged. WHO DAT WE STILL DAT. IT BEGINS SUNDAY.

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

He's not exactly getting upset and chewing peoples asses out either...

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

I don't know if you never noticed, but Coach Payton hardly ever chewed anybody out (except the refs), and almost never shows any emotion to any of the players

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

You're right... I guess there is nothing wrong with Kromer the emotion or lack of he displays. Yet back in week 1 and 2 people couldn't wait for Vitt to get back to light a fire and start chewing folks out.
Maybe I missed it.
And you can't tell me if someone screwed something up that Payton didn't chew some ass out..

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Drew needs to include himself as well, look no further than yourself. You can't throw pick 6s, under throw receivers that have a chance to score and all in all make bad decisions.
Don't get me wrong not blaming Drew, I believe he's trying to do his best and taking on to much responsibilities that belong to other people.
Mr. Goodhell made this all possible

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Green Bay is the better team right now

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Unless you're wearing the wrong cleats....Or, if you bring him the wrong gum! LOL

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

I've got a message for drew brees and the rest of our offense

SCORE

Re: Drew Brees sends message to Saints offense
 

Malcolm gets his first pick this week

Calling it right now.
