Maybe a good benching to give a little reflection wouldn't hurt. I would like to see what Griffin can do at least a good look.
Brees is a phenomenal player who does mess up at times but has carried this team for so long. He is a leader, a captain, and the face of this franchise, and you just don't bench somebody like that. To be honest, I read in another post that he was booed in the SF game and I don't think that was right. He is not a flop or lazy and prepares more than anybody on that team. He is an ultimate competitor and his mistakes bother him just as much if not more than it does us. One of his downfalls is he panics under pressure and tries to do too much. Give that man some good protection and watch what he can do. Hell, just go back and watch the Green Bay game. To expect him to be phenomenal without good protection is like trying to have sex on sleeping pills....you might get the job done, but you'll be sloppy and inconsistent and theres a good chance you wont finish strong.

He had phenomenal protection before the half and still threw the ball into triple coverage.....

True,but he had pressure in his face most of the game. That's why pressures can be just as effective as sacks....that will cause any QB to make bad decisions. Look what happened at the end of the game when he trusted his protection....he got hit from behind and fumbled the ball. Your right though,he should have never thrown into triple coverage. I just don't agree with the fans booing him. He's done way too much good to be criticized so harshly for the mistakes he's made. Although he is contributing to our loses,his mistakes are not the reason we are losing games.

Drew made mistakes last year but we had the defense that could bail him out
I understand the fans point of view, they are paying their hard earned money to watch our team shoot themselves in the foot the exact same way every week

The NFL has and always will be a what have you done for me lately, and lately they have done nothing but let us down
I think it's wrong to boo Brees alone, but people have become accustomed to such high level play from him that when our team starts struggling and he makes a dumb decision the whole situation is magnified

Brees deserves a lot of the blame but so does the defense, they've had multiple opportunities to help Brees and failed to do so
Still, Brees is responsible for 12 turnovers so far this season, until we lower the turnovers, we won't be looking at better than 7-9.
