Brees?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I asked my brother about it tonight, but he just wanted to enjoy the victory so he refused to talk about it. But I've been wondering about Drew these last two games. He really looks like he's pushing the ball ...

Brees?

I asked my brother about it tonight, but he just wanted to enjoy the victory so he refused to talk about it. But I've been wondering about Drew these last two games. He really looks like he's pushing the ball a lot instead of driving through the throw. Hasn't been as accurate. You don't think that he's nursing an injury that he's not letting on about? If so, thank goodness we have two weeks for him to get better.

Re: Brees?

Yeah they were about his last few pass not being as accurate and as tight as they had been.

Re: Brees?

Two factors:
1. Loss of Shockey
2. v Cardinals, 3rd Quarter. 1-10-50 (10:00) PENALTY on ARZ-C.Campbell, Roughing the Passer, 15 yards. Felt Brees lost his touch from that point on.

Re: Brees?

i think it may have been some nervousness aswell tho, cuz when the blitz was coming brees still avoided it like he always does by pumping his feet, his accuracy just went a little off, i put it down to the magnitude of the game. He will be fine!!

Big game...nerves...all the stupid media hype over Favre...not wanting to dissapoint the team and the fans...lots of stuff. He'll be ok.....he's a winner!

Re: Brees?

wtf is this thread even about.....excuse my rudeness but our WRs dropped several balls last night

drew went 17 for 31 but i count 5 drops just off the top of my head

5 drops would mean 5 more catches and we would be talkin about drew's ridiculously high completion percentage again

btw thats 71% completion percentage

drew had a great game but the WRs played very poorly...the one bright spot was david thomas who filled in all over the field and despite not being the best blocker or receiver, he goes hard every play through the whistle

oh and P.S.

drew threw 3 TD passes

He looked fine to me. Especially compared to Favre.

Wondering the same thing, especially after last night. I think it is possible, I am not sure bout the Cards, but last night I think he might have got a little hurt. I am hoping we will all be heatly in two weeks.

We are going to win the SB!!!

Re: Brees?

Well, we have seen Drew's accuracy drop in a game and then the next he was back to form. I think that is just the way it is in sports -- sometimes you are just a little off. (and keep in mind that what we are used to is unreal, the bar is very high).


I would love to hear what your brother has to say about this.
