Drew's Arm

Marlboro Man · 12-03-2012, 12:21 PM

Nah, don't agree. That pass was short because Bushleague's guy pushed him into Drew's leading left leg and he couldn't step into the throw.

its been that way, during the superbowl run it was like that. He has always under thrown the WR. Nothing new here, thats why we need to run the damn ball and not throw it 50 times a game, and still loose

I blame the offensive line. Seriously.

i can agree to some of the drew and grahm posts. drew is in a battle with fatigue mentally more than old wounds hurting. he really started to press when for 3 quarters without a passing td. jimmy grahm now its confussing to me how he went from all world to the real world. injury has to be the culprit. he has his ways of giving up on a route when he knows hes not targeted. which is hurting his ego a little. u don't see him in drews face apoligizing as much for a droped ball like last season. has to be the foot/ankle eating him. can't shake a cold this year. it could be that i finally thought i had a fantasy stud also. lol. still love um both.

I haven't really seen this. On this level the margin for error is so small that if Brees has gotten hit and has a bruised shoulder or a slight sprain that might be enough to cause a problem with his delivery, doesn't have to be the end of the world or nothing.

I am in no way saying his arm is gone, but what I have seen of him in the last few games reminds me of the 2010 season when we found out near the end of the season that he played a few games hurt.

I have tendonitis in both rotator cuffs, and impingement. Drew has his his arm nearly ripped out of socket and is slinging 50 passes/game, you cant tell me his shoulders don't hurt when the weather changes etc...

Let me put it into terms that may wake some people up. The QB that has been touted as one of the most intelligent and accurate QB in the NFL just starts throwing wildly inaccurate passes and makes very bad decisions because.... He ran out of waffles?

I think it more fatigued than anything, a lot of his passes are behind, never in stride or he steps up so far and over throw just misses so yes that run game is very important so SP is needed and I hope he sees it

Its normal procedure to get a full physical before a contract signing. Im fairly confident in Drews case, that included full disclosure of his arm strength and shoulder health.
IF they offered Brees a 100 million dollar contract, they must know he is just fine. Thats how I see it.

The only thing wrong with Drew's arm is the offensive line.

Belair57 · 12-03-2012, 10:36 PM

the money in his pocket is weighing him down, its throwing off his delivery, ...now if he was to say, get rid of some of it, to me, then he would get some weight off his back, or shoulder.

He's been getting hit a lot this year. Wouldn't surprise me at all if he is playing dinged up. You won't hear about it until the end of the season if this is true.
