Re: Charles Brown has been the downfall of us all.
Agreed. A massive part of Drew Brees' skillset includes his ability to step up into the pocket to avoid outside pressure, but the middle of the pocket has allowed tons of pressure, giving him nowhere to go except outside.
My biggest issue isn't even the pressure allowed by Brown. It's the penalties in clutch moments. I'm glad Sean benched him, because he was getting exploited all game, and once Strief came in, Quinn became much more quiet (Not silent, but quiet). And that's saying a lot for Strief coming off a completely different position on the other side of the line. Brown's development was looking up over the past few weeks, after Sean confronted him about his PENALTIES. But after today, I've got to say that he has not improved over the past year,he has actually taken some steps backwards. He did much better last year, and many of us know what THAT means.. ![]() Perhaps armstead will have a breakout this summer, or we will pick up a veteran via free agency or trade. Either way, it is clear that Drew's contract is hurting our O-Line's depth more than anything else on the team After losing Goodwin, I knew we had a rough patch to go through. When we lost Bushrod, my heart dropped. What made our offense nearly impossible to stop was the combination of pro-bowlers Jahri Evans and Nicks tandem. That 100 million dollar contract has run off our pro-bowl caliber protection. |
