Whoaaa...hang on. No need for that.

I ain't paid millions to do the job of an NFL QB. He's been playing against 350 lb d-lineman who have been trying to rip his head off since 2001. He's handled much worse defenses than the 2014 TB defense. QB's make some dumb throws under pressure, even Saint Manning and Saint Brady. It's just that I haven't seen this kind of poor decision-making very often from Brees, but it seems to be happening way too frequently in the first 5 games this year. You simply can't overlook the fact he leads the NFL in INTs and has thrown two Pick 6's in 5 games. These things helps lose games, and Brees' starting record of 2-3 is what I'd call decline. That's the numbers.

And I feel that I have all the freedom in the world to criticize our team, even Brees. I have no clue what it feels like in his position, obviously, but I can watch an NFL game and give my opinion.

Right or wrong, it is my opinion.
