how much of Brees problems are due to the Olines?

We have been getting killed at the line of scrimmage. Do you think this is mostly Brees problem or does he just suddenly suck.

Hard to say, he does run for his life more than usual but many of the mistakes I've seen weren't due to pressure.

There have been times when he couldn't stand in the pocket because of pressure, but most his picks he has had a perfect pocket but makes dumb decisions

Could have something to do with him losing focus because he never knows when he's gonna have to run for his life. Who knows.

no... just no. The idiot TV announcers even made a statement of how well protected he was in the game... 0 sacks until the 4th qtr and barley pressured at all. Not to mention they dominated in the running game. Drew had the bad games. No need for excuses about everyone around him.

The season has finally gotten to these guys.

They're done, they know it and they are frustrated, not working as a team.

Agreed, especially the interior of that line played well the whole game through, and Robinson had a another good performance coming in for Strief at the RT.

Three problems with Drew v.2012

(1) No Payton, so he's trying to do even more than his normal, Atlas performance...

(2) Deteriorating Rotator Cuff from previous injury - Saints should have had his shoulder checked BEFORE the Tom Condon f***ing; he's not been accurate on the deep ball the past two and half seasons so he's overdue for a shoulder tune-up...

(3) We've lost Stinchcomb, Nicks, and Goodwin in the past two seasons, and it's caught up...
