The coach gets carted off the field on a gurney, and some people keep acting like it was just a regular ordinary game. It wasn't.
We know Brees can run the offense at times but the coach is needed to make critical decesions. He wasn't able to do that for some of the game. His general presence is also needed. The acknowledgement to a player like a pat on the back or a glance of "get your !@#$ together, those things have an impact. The vantage point in the booth will be better but that's probably the ony advantage.
