that's what I'm saying about becoming the next Roby- speedy gunner on coverage
remember the play against Wash when he popped an int lose and ran it back?

So many around here have been blasting Brees for his underthrows. If that is a fact, then Meachem has lost it and is simply much slower.

Or, in Brees' defense, perhaps his current receivers are faster and he has not had a chance to get totally in sync with the reduced practices mandated by the new CBA. He still seems to be hitting Colston and Graham with no problem. He is not used to the speed of the others. It takes time.

Well Meachem did have a step on the defender so he may not have lost much.

He used to have three steps on his defender "way back when". Then again, It has been a couple of years since they worked together. Maybe Brees remembered him as being a little faster.

Who was the defender? 1 step for some is just a trap

Brees commented that Meachem was as fast as ever on a WWL interview.

Old people think 65 mph speed limit is fast :)

That is a VERY good point and a good reason to be optimistic. I forget that Brees is working with a few new targets this season.
