Yeah, and they also said Saints were going to the Super Bowl last season. I can do without their prognostication.

I'm not 100% convinced that we'll miss him.

I think we just spread it out to 4 or 5 weapons instead of 2 or 3.

Pick your poison. We simply went from 2 or 3 poisons to 4 or 5 poisons.

The end result is that we still kill you.

That's how I feel about it too. Not that Jimmy wouldn't make us better if we would still spread it around with him here, but the fact is that we simply didn't do that. So much of our offense was forced on making Jimmy the focal point. I never got why, but now that he's gone I am thinking (and really hoping) we go back to the formula that won us a title.

Agree 100% with both!

We got too caught up trying to get Jimmy involved in the game, throwing to him when he was double covered.

If we spread the weapons out and don't zero in on one target too often, we could see the type of success that 2009 and 2011 gave us on offense.

We still spread the ball around last year, just not as much as before. I think that was because Drew didn't have the time or that horseshoe pocket he's had in previous years. LG is still a question but everything else looks great.
