THE most amazing thing I saw Monday

Danno · 11-30-2011, 08:00 AM

I wish I could find a video, but on the play where Brees escaped a couple tackles and threw for a 1st down where they challenged him being across the LOS, they focused on his eyes.

While all of this was happening, Drew's eyes were looking downfield the entire time.

I thought that was simply amazing. I don't think he even blinked once. That is the true definition of ICE.

I want see that again.

These are the things he brings to our table. I can't see us without him. He has put us from being a sorry team to being feared and I thank him for that.

Yes that was pretty awesome.

I think that is some major insight to Drew's success is never stop looking down field even when you are in the hands of the enemy whatever you have to do is look down field. No distractions should take your eyes off down field.

You see the opposite in younger QB's and average QB's. As soon as they are rushed they start looking at a way out... a place to run, and not down field.

I caught it too as Gruden got his groupie game on as he gave a frame by frame play of his eyes and it was always down field. They may put that in the QB manual.

Yep, Saw that Monday night. Amazing to keep that much concentration with 1000 pounds of linemen trying to kill you.
