Re: Drew Brees is turning into Brett Favre...

Wow let's not all start going for each other's throats! The comment about bandwagon fans is a bit pathetic. Everyone can have an opinion and spark debate.

Based on picks, I have always said that the worst part and probably one of the few or ONLY bad parts of Drew Brees' game is his inability to do the dirty stuff. Sometimes he should take a sack or throw the ball away but he tries to slot it into tight gaps to keep the chains moving and that can end up badly. Hey he trusts his arm and why wouldn't you when you hold so many NFL records and are one of the best NFL QBs of all time? But in my opinion I'd be hapier him throwing it away sometimes.

His O-Line has not looked good. Strief is mediocre and I think we are seeing how much Bushrod got from Nicks. Grubbs is ok at guard but is not helping Bushrod out. I think Nicks made Bushrod look better and Jermon played up to this. It gelled.

On his day Brees is one of or THE best in the NFL right now. With the pressure he is getting and more importantly the ridiculous ask of coming back from 3 scores down what seems to be week after week (or has the potential to be) you tell me another QB who wouldn't also be in trouble. You think Rodgers and Brady would dig out of this one? I don't think so.

We all care for the team and want it play better but we do need to brace ourselves for a long season and if our D doesn't start making some plays soon, we could see this turning into a weekly occurrence

Give Drew more than 2 seconds to throw and he'll be fine.

OP is ludicrous. I can handle the doom and gloom and panicky patty antics; but, Bret Favre? That crosses lines.

Drew has not done anything out of character this season.. That is how Drew has played for a few years now..

That o-line is a different story.

Re: Drew Brees is turning into Brett Favre...

The defense is putting the whole offence behind the cue ball every possesions.They are getting terrible field position everytime the take over.
They must be taking over on their own 20yrd line 8/10 this season.

Still too many drops being made on both sides of the ball.


Big game next week now.
Just a case of trying spilt games now until Vitt can come back.
Kromer needs to get back tosorting the O-Line is horrific

Re: Drew Brees is turning into Brett Favre...

Field position and a suspect O Line is the problem right now. Drew hasn't been able to work his magic due to the pressure he is getting. O line has to stiffen up.....and our receivers have to start catching the ball!! Some of the drops today were inexcusable!
