Brees hit him in stride with the ball coming down about a foot in front of his chest. He barely had to move his arms to be in position to catch that ball... And he dropped it.

Catchable, yes. Perfect, yes. You qualify your "no" with "In your opinion", but you don't back that opinion up with any facts or observations on what made that perfect throw imperfect. This is because there was nothing about that throw that wasn't perfect.

Drew's reaction wasn't questionable at all. When a 5th year pro who has never known another QB lets a perfectly thrown ball go right through his hands he should be pissed! It's the NFL, not kindergarten. You want to give Meatchump a gold star because he tried his best to catch the ball?!?

Puhleeze.
