After a couple of brief congratulatory hand-slaps, Brees ran through the tunnel at the northwest corner of the Georgia Dome, the first Saint to leave the field. He ran under the sign that read THE SAINTS AIN'T ALL DAT. He ran through the traffic jam of moving trucks wedged in the Dome's tunnels. He ran past the black-and-gold-spangles of several female Saints fans. He ran to the door of Locker Room 2 and disappeared inside.

But he couldn't outrun this mess of a game. He couldn't outrun his five interceptions. He couldn't outrun the end of a 54-game touchdown streak. And he couldn't outrun the train wreck of a play sequence at the end of the first half, one that saw New Orleans stall out on Atlanta's 3-yard line and miss out on any chance to cut into a 10-point Falcons lead.









Nowhere for Saints QB Drew Brees to hide after worst game of his career - Yahoo! Sports

He had a horrific game but geeze he is still a HOFer & will carry NOLA to the playoffs & beyond for several more seasons. Would you guys trade him for anyone else?

Everyone is allowed to have a bad game even Drew. He'll bounce back next Sunday against the Giants. No Problem here.

At least there are still some who can see the big picture.

In a Unprescendeted year. Take it one game, one day at a time. If you want to hang someone hang Roger Goodell. Drew Brees is stiill one of the greatest Quarterback we have ever seen.

Glad the streak is over, it was a distraction.
Glad his worse game was this year and not let's say in the Superbowl a few years ago.
Still glad he is our QB.

If you read the post game quotes after the game, he took responsibility of the loss and the last three basically.

It wouldn't be so bad but his game against San Fran was terrible too. We just need this season to end as soon as possible.

In a heartbeat. One that comes to mind right away is RGIII...or Andrew Luck...and that's just off the top of my head.

OK...I have never been a fan of Drew the person, and I am sure there are people scratching their heads and thinking, "WTF is wrong with this guy?"...but it is nothing personal.

Talent-wise, he has been great, no doubt. However, he is getting old. If I honestly answer the question, then, yeah...I'd trade for someone else right now.

If you would have asked this question right after the SB win, I'm sure my answer would have been different.

Edit...Oh, yeah...one more thing. I am wondering if it is a coinkydink that people around Drew are not playing as well as before, or do they either consciously or sub-consciously do poorly because they resent how greedy he got in the offseason. Just fodder for thought.

Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!

The following is off-topic...but when has that ever stopped me. Just consider this a commercial in the middle of a good thread...

Mike, oh Mike...where forth art thou. Maybe I have not been around as much and it is me...but I do remember predicting that if the Texans ever got good...

Mike, I am bored...and I have an excuse! I am full o' crap! You know we're buds.

Now...carry on with the thread.
