Drew Brees is most of the problem

O-line didn't throw the ball 6 times to the other guys..........

Good thing they can't catch.

Brees wasn't the only problem but he definitely lost this game.

I had to register here just comment.

Brees IMO isn't the issue. Like previous posters had stated. No running gaming puts alot more on the QB and all the teams know it.
He had over 55 attemps today... Thats double what he normally does.
I honestly think when Bush and Thomas both come back things will get better.

At this point I'm not to concerned. The Saints are still one of the best in the NFC.

Dont forget about the O-line, they have to give Brees time to throw. We can sit and point fingers all day, but bottom line everyone needs to get better!

No.

The Saints problem is defense. They are not making the big plays on defense like last year.

We have the number 4 ranked defense in the NFL.

I'm thinking defense isn't the problem.

2009 Saints Offense - 32 points per game
2010 Saints Offense - 21 points per game

Agreed. And how is everyone missing the biggest reason we're 4-3???

One bright spot. THE TIGHTENDS LOOKED GREAT. That's not a joke. Graham, Shockey, and Thomas all looked good. Moore did his job. One of the announcers said this, and I have to agree. Brees struggles against 3-4 defenses. He always has. For some reason, that base defense, seems to fill the passing lanes, alot faster than the 4-3. I noticed today, that a linebacker, almost every play, stayed put in the middle, to try and bat down his passes. Which it worked, because alot of them were knocked down, or intercepted. I think it's all in his head. And I'm not buying the baby excuse. As I pointed out before, Polomalu had two of his best career games, right before the birth of his son, and right after. Just like you leave everything on the field, you leave your personal life at home.
