There’s no reason to question the Saints defense. They played the Packers!

And let’s be honest here. Drew Brees performed like a surgeon in the season opener. The only reason he gets a “loss” attached to his name was because the Saints were playing Rodgers and the Packers at Lambeau Field. Brees completed 65 percent of his passes for three touchdowns and 419 yards against zero picks last Thursday night. It’s obvious he is healthy now, unlike a year ago.

I like this part. It might be early to tell but it sure looks like Brees was throwing the ball a whole lot better against the Packers than he did last year.
