If the O line continues to play poorly, then you're probably right. Otherwise I still don't get all the Bree's hate

I dont either. Brees is doing the best he can with what he has to work with currently. Last game the oline didn't protect and the defense let the ravens score almost everytime they got the ball. Forced drew to have to score touchdowns and pass to keep the team in the game.

Yea he threw a pick 6, but the oline was collapsing almost instantly again for the 50th time and he had to rush the pass or get sacked almost instantly...
he still had 420+ yards , 3 TDS and almost an 80 percent completion rating while under constant pressure.

Look at brady. They fixed thier o line issues compared to the start of the season and he is just tearing teams apart.

^This^

I think the problems on Offense are fairly easy to fix. Drew needs a strong interior line. Beef up the interior of the O-line and Drew can step up, plant his feet and throw with more velocity and accuracy. OG's and OC's aren't nearly as expensive as most other positions so it should be easily accomplished.

Also with Drew being short it would help with his down-field line of sight. Some of his picks looked like he simply couldn't see the defender. Do they make high heel cleats? Platform cleats perhaps?
