WWL - AM870 | FM105.3 | News | Talk | Sports - Kristian: Brees Says "This Is Where You Make Your Run"

The Saints had their bye week relatively early this season, but quarterback Drew Brees said it came at a good time for the team: “It’s a time for self evaluation,” Brees explained. “Especially physically I think, especially because we got banged up in that Tampa game a little bit.” Judging by the injury report (more on that in a minute) the bye week helped a little but not enough. The Saints have 11 games remaining in the regular season and Brees said the team is ready: “This is where you make your run.” The “run” will be tough, starting this Sunday on the road against the Detroit Lions. In the month of October, the Black and Gold will play three straight teams with winning records,(Green Bay at home on the 26th) and a short week turnaround on Thursday night on the road against Carolina on October 30th.
