But Brees showed in 2014 that without Colston in his prime, Cooks, and a attentive Graham(who teams easily shadowed), he wasn't that great. Oline maybe, but the oline's had the same performances against any pressuring defense. The offense didn't look all that great last year in terms of points against NYG, SD(turnovers won that game), KC, Seattle, Denver, Carolina, DETROIT, TBx2, Atlanta. So we were ranked top five. Big deal. The bottom line is the points don't match up. Also, we got Warford to replace Evans not the LG, which Warford is not. The FO didn't even consider Armstead's injury issues leaving the likes of Lelito(who is gone), Kelemete to man that position. It's like we are relying on Armstead to be completely healthy. Brees tends to throw a pick against every good defense he faces which is frustrating. Ted Ginn JR cannot replace Cooks. Are we really relying on the lightbulb coming on for Fleener? Nvm he can't block so he won't get all the snaps. |
