How he beats you: One of the elite quarterbacks in the league, Brees has few flaws, if any, in his game. This season he has become even more valuable with head coach Sean Payton suspended for a year as a result of the bountygate fallout. The 12th-year veteran boasts impeccable knowledge of the offense, great recognition of defensive schemes and an ability to extend plays with his mobility. Brees set the single-season passing record last season, throwing for 5,476 yards, and racked up 46 touchdown passes with only 14 interceptions.

Because of Brees’ ability, the Saints aren’t expected to experience much – if any – dropoff on offense despite Payton’s absence.

“They don’t need coaches,” Redskins outside linebacker Brian Orakpo said. “They’ve got Drew Brees. They could just pay him extra to be the coach. He does a great job and we have to get after him.”

Yeh, but he's still not Aaron Rodgers, right? At least that's what I've been hearing all week from the same "experts". So sick of that, I hope Brees lights them up this week.
