None of our receivers have been doing very well this year. Drew is not as accurate this year either. When he is not accurate you see how our receivers are good but not great. An accurate Brees makes them look twice as good as they actually are.
I think Drew took a few hits early on in the season that may have stuck with him and lingered through the year. I wouldnt be surprised if he has been playing a little dinged up and we dont hear about it until after the season. Graham gets a pass because of his injury. That injury does not just heal on its own if you are playing on it every week.

I don't agree. If you look at the games where the Saint's O has struggled, passing accuracy was not the issue. In most of those games the receivers were not able to get separation. Part of that is due to timing and a strong pass rush. But looking at the Seattle game, I can't recall a single uncontested reception. Brees was threading the needle all night but even the quick slants were blanketed.

Re: Jimmy Graham, please

This thread looks like a bunch of whining for no reason... Whine about Jimmy in the red-zone, but he ends the game tied 10th in receiving yards and 14 TDs. Whine about our receivers and Colston goes off for 125
