Should have double down on an OL instead of this hole patching approach. Jim Finks always said you have to have solid lines and we do not on either side. He's getting hammered, D getting smoked. No QB can function in that environment. They are either playing on their back or playing from behind.

Totally agree!!

He should have done a Tom Brady team friendly contract. We might have a better OL. Still, is this a sign that he is Denver bound?

WillSaints81 · 01-01-2017, 10:33 PM

He's tired of saying next year. Why did he not say something sooner?

I don't think a defense was gonna help with that terrible first half. Oh and wasting a TD drive on who else............Fleener. That MAY have been the game decider.

This is definitely not something we've heard from Brees since he's arrived in New Orleans but I can't blame him. Seems like every year he is saying optimistic things about next year but nothing has changed. Defense is always towards the bottom of the league, he seems to be getting hit a lot lately behind this OL and we miss on a lot of our draft picks. We've been 7-9 in 4 of the last 5 seasons. He's frustrated because he knows he doesn't have many more years left and he sees this team for what it is. We're a middle of the pack team that barring a big turnaround doesn't look like a team on the up.

The reversal on Fleener was BS! We have all seen the ball move a helluva lot more in other games and be called a TD; yes the ball moved, but he NEVER lost CONTROL of it!
