Report: New Orleans Saints concerned about decline in Drew Brees

And Farve was a few plays short of a Super Bowl at what, 40?

Typical media sensationalism, if thats a word.

Someone probably said "well Brees won't last forever, he's getting older".

Add a pinch of isolated stats, a dash or two of speculation and the media turns it into what you have here.

Didn't Brees tie the league in most yards and nearly have another 5,000 yard season (48 yards shy)

Not to mention nearly a 70% completion rate
That with Graham and Colston having cases of the drops

Shore up that line - look out

The Packers game was an example

Hope we get a few breakout receivers this year

Yeah!
Like the lesser performance of the offensive line had nothing to do with it. We all know that greater pressure on a QB creates more opportunities for the defense to make interceptions.
Like the 30 dropped passes the Saints had, that included Jimmy Graham dropping 6.5% and Marcus Colston dropping 7.1% of the passes coming their way.
