Question Between a Rock and a Hard Place ...

Drew Brees is easily one of the Top 5 greatest Quarterbacks in NFL history.

But this Version of Brees isn't exactly the 2011 Brees. Now I fully understand that I'll be ridiculed and possibly hung or stoned to death ( Witchitheth !!! )
for even insinuating this , but I think either one of two things is happening.


1. Something's up with Brees

2. We lost key pieces and chemistry by giving Brees the huge contract.


In theory 1 I have noticed on countless occasions that it doesn't seem like Drew can hit the home-run ball anymore. Stills Twice in Atlanta , and so on a so forth. I'm sure you all have noticed as well. The good old cockback throw from Drew in the past 9/10 meant a touchdown , it now puts fear into any Saints supporter. Perhaps he's having shoulder issues or something that's being kept under wraps.

In theory 2 much more likely .. I think cap space has been the most prominent thing crippling our team. Brees's contract came at the casualty of Bushrod , Nicks and at the time Meachem and Henderson. Now we know from a standpoint of talent we if anything upgraded at the receiver position but what about chemistry ? What about Kromer ? What about pass protection and Run Blocking ?


It is very likely that both are contributors to our woes at 2-0 but it does bring the question of whether or not Brees should restructure his contract to allow space to give him quality protection..

What's your take ?
