Drew's passer Rating this season was a career 4th best at 104.7. Other than his completion percentage being down by 2.4% 2013 was a better year for Drew than 2009.

We can not put the monkey on his back.

All I heard this year is how many INTS he was throwing. I never did take the time to look at his stats but it seemed to me that he was having one of his better seasons as for as taking care of the ball. and far less than last year.

Last year it seemed that every one he threw was due to a stupid decision and it seemed like almost all of them were avoidable and his fault. I didn't see much of that this year.
Like I said I just hope the accuracy issue isn't an issue and is just a result of shoddy protection. His accuracy is his money maker. He doesn't have the arm Manning or even Brady does and we don't have that elite receiver that can make up for an errant pass.
