PFT Live: Can Saints offense overcome shaky defense?
I haven't watched this yet
Jeff Duncan from New Orleans Times-Picayune joins PFT Live to urge Saints fans to temper their anger at the team’s 2-4 start because of their narrow margin of defeat and deciphers if Drew Brees and the offense can carry the defense that has looked shaky at times the rest of the way.

2008-2012 Drew Brees could carry any defense
In 2008, 2011 and 2012 the offense carried the team Drew is making bad decisions now though |

I'm not saying that DB is having a great year ... but I think your analysis gives him both too much credit and too much discredit. And, it is this special theory of relative blame that gives me pause this year -- ESPECIALLY when the theory involves only one player. I start hearing game show error buzzers. |

Almost Brett favre-esque trying to complete a pass whilst falling down and throwing a wounded duck straight to the defender I would say drew Brees has lost his ability to protect the football, seen as he is missing open receivers and throwing into double coverage - see the Dallas interception. |

2009 - 34 TD's, 11 ints 2011 - 46 TD's, 12 ints 2014 so far - 9 TD's, 7 ints He is on pace for another 20 interception year just like 2010 when he couldn't protect the ball that year. |

So Drew is the reason we are 2-4?

I am so spittin' mad the Saints are 2-4 that I cannot function properly in society. OK, so I can't function properly in society anyhow, but it ain't because the Saints are 2-4. Drew will be fine as long as there's no more major flare-ups with the oblique. And remember how Brady was just so washed up after Week 4? Yeah, we're not hearing that now. I gotta feeling the same with come for Brees, too. |
