Shanle was by far the most underrated player on the roster, although not as far as many of the fans were concerned. However, the coaches and players respected him highly. That's one reason he was named the 2008 defensive MVP by the players. Was he flashy? No, but he did his job and did it well.

What went wrong with the season

Because the Defense couldn't stop anyone, Brees felt that he had to play at a super human level and force passes into triple coverage

Offense - Easily top 5 in turnovers
Defense - Easily bottom 5 in forced turnovers

If I had to pick just one item, it would be 3rd down %.

Our offense was best in the NFL, and our defense was worst in the NFL.

Laugh all you want, it's my opinion and many won't see yours because you've been blocked by most....and now by me.

Re: Brees Opens Up What Went Wrong in Lost Season

Good Read,

“I hate the word ‘talent.’ I hate it,” Brees said. “Some of the best players I ever played with, or best teammates I ever played with, that wasn’t their best quality. Everybody’s talented. Their best quality was their work ethic, their leadership ability, their ability to fight through adversity, toughness, reliability. Those are the things I most value.”
