Did you expect anything different?

SaintFanQ · 11-15-2015, 06:13 PM

I'm surprised that Brees hasn't been seriously injured yet this year!

He had stitches in his lip from last weeks game and at one point in todays game he was sandwiched in between to beast size Redskin players and then his helmet flew off and went rolling across the turf!

I hope I'm proved wrong but the way things are going you can just see a big hit taking him out and him not getting up off of the turf if things carry on the way they are!!!

GEAUX SAINTS!!!!

I never knew what to expect coming into this season. There was a great deal of unknown. But I expected to beat the bad teams. I didn't expect to BE the bad team and get blown out by sub .500 teams. I thought we might be good or be like last year again. We are much worse than last year.

Strief is horrible. And to be honest when our line was good he was the weak link. Now that our line is mediocre, it shows how bad he is

On our list of problems with this team, Zach Strief isn't even in the top 10.

Your only as good as your weakest link, & we have some very weak links

Strief is one of the main reasons Brees has taken so much punishment. I think he is well in the top 10 seeing how Brees has been abused this year

Actually Evans, Lelito and Kelemete are the main reasons Drew's being pressured.

But even then... we are the number one offense in the entire NFL.

I get what you're saying here but when your offense gets shut down for long stretches against bad teams, it's a meaningless statistic.

Because of Drew and his ability to release the ball quick. Strief gets destroyed by quick DE's. A fast move gets by him constantly. I am hoping Peat will replace him next year and Evans replaced by Kelemete or someone not 72 yrs old making 10 mil a year.
