Re: Drew Brees
 

I like Drew. He seems like a really nice guy., but nice is not what I'm looking for on the field. Drew dinks and dunks - that's not new - he dinked and dunked all of last year. The differnece was he had Duece last year to take the pressure off. This year he has ...well...he's 0-4. Drew is playing the hand he was dealt, and Sean Payton is the dealer. When Drew had Duece (4.3 per for the record), Sean gave Duece 9-10 carries a game - I couldn't believe it - pathetic use of a power back with proven success. Even the so called poor performance of the O-line, still allowed Duece to get 4.3 this year, but Sean wouldn't give him the ball. Everytime Karney touches the ball it seems like good things happen. 1 carry yesterday for a 1 yard touchdown - NO MORE TOUCHES - what the hell? His carry stats show that he is about a 4 yard per carry guy - he gets maybe 3 carries per game. Bush is averaging about 2.2 and got 21 carries, damn! Nothing against Bush, and he needs to get some carries now that McC is out, but the way that Payton is running Bush is totally ineffective. Bush needs Karney to lead between the tackles - make a path into the secondary where he can shine. Paytons two yard passes on 3rd and 10 are beginning to rub me raw. Brees is paying the price for primarily: mis-management of assets, and then poor play bringing up the rear. Brees' poor performance(s) are just a part of a downward spiral which began last year in the NFC Championship game, when a decision was made to take the team out of Duece's hands, and put it into Drew's hands. We haven't won a game since.
