Who exactly has TRIED to "chuck it all over the field" on you so far this year? Chad Henne? Ryan Fitzpatrick? Matt "Pick 6" Schaub? LOL. Your team has NOT been tested by an elite QB, at least not anyone I'd consider even remotely close to being elite in the passing game. Well, maybe Andrew Luck. He did a bit of chucking, 2 TDs, quite a few first downs, and a 2 point conversion to Reggie Wayne.

I know you're cocky, but when it comes to facing an elite QB like Brees, I think you will find that your defense is not gonna look the same, as it does when it's playing against the Christian Ponders or Kellen Clemenses of the world. You had your hands full with Luck, and that's not even nearly the same level as Brees.

Fair question, I would consider Luck an elite quarterback and he passed for 208 yards (at home). Would you be happy if Brees matched that?

So the best QB you have faces is Luck and he had 208 yards?

How then do you account for.

Chad Henne dropped 214 on you in your house. Thats Jacksonville brother... Henne and Cecil Shorts put up 143... Now.. Lets talk about Graham and Brees again.


Look past the obvious brother... Its not the Lucks dropping 208.. Its the Schaubs and Hennes dropping 325,214.

I kid you not, Russell Wilson was out of the game in the middle of the 3rd quarter and our second string offense and Defense was in the rest of the game. We were up 24-0 at halftime. Total blowout. Russell Wilson scored to make it 31-0 opening drive and that was it; starters were all out of the game. We massacred them!!
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Seattle Seahawks - Box Score - September 22, 2013 - ESPN

As for Schuab the Seahawks played an equivelant of 5 quarters against them and won with a little over 3:18 left. If you took his passing average for 4 quarter he has roughly 260 yards passing and his average is around 244 but after halftime he was shut down. The Seahawks were down 20-3 and came back and won the game and we did it WITHOUT three of our starting offensive lineman and the Texans had Brian Cushing.

Of course not. But to be fair, Brees hasn't thrown for anything close to that little in a game, since week 3 of 2009, four years ago, LOL. Matt Schaub, 355 YDS, 2 TD, against the Seahawks....that is a bit more realistic discussion of your pass defense.... and the only reason you got back in it was because Schaub gifted you with one of his patented pick 6's.....Keep in mind, Brees > Schaub by every statistical measure. Again -- this game will not be a pushover, like facing the Jaguars or Vikings.
