We have a problem:

We have too many GOOD receivers and none of them will achieve EXCELLENCE because there are so many choices for Brees.

Now, it's a great problem to have, but it will eventually take a toll on the play of the receiver who is no longer in "favor". Favor in the sense that Moore is experiencing "favor" now.

Receivers play for; 1. A Ring (Sense of belonging) 2. Money (Security) 3. Touchdowns and yards (Future Security)

A ring can never be guaranteed.

Money can, but only if you are a standout. The Saints won't allow standout.

So all that's left is Touchdowns and Stats. With our breadth, no one gets their fill of that either. When you're HOT, you're HOT and when you're not, you're not going to play with the same agression as when you're hot.

My argument with respect to Meachem was that he rarely drops a ball and usually creates a big play when he gets the attention of Brees. I think he just needs a pink helmet, I mean, right now you can wear just about anything pink, right!?

Love the thread, guys.

Really passes the week to the next game.

Brees choices have nothing to do with Dropped balls % or YAC
