I admit I can't speak as intelligently on this as I would like since I hardly get to see the Saints play.

That said, from what I do see, it seems like the INTs and floated passes come when he tries to force things from his back foot because he is getting no time to step up into his throws.

This is what I meant by he needs to play a different game. Before, he used to be able to depend only on his arm strength to force those in to tight spots. Now he has to decide to throw those away or check down, choosing his spots to be aggressive, instead of being aggressive the whole time.

Correct me if I'm wrong, of course.
