We need to run the ball and limit the amount of opportunities Brees has to **** up and throw a boneheaded pick.

Y’all act like that’s all Brees ever does.
He had a tendency to force it some in the past but that was because he knew he would get 0 help on defense and the only hope of winning was to score on every possession. Besides last week he’s been pretty good about it. Hopefully he’s learned he doesn’t have to risk it anymore because he finally had help.
I’m as critical of Brees as anyone but there was plenty blame to go around.
Much of it had nothing to do with any of our players.
I wouldn’t trust the defense in OT anyway. They were done. The way players we’re getting injured every snap I would have wanted to get it over with too.

I guarantee we would have lost another player in OT

He’s never not had a tendency to force it. It’s just easier to do it when you aren’t 40.

Who says we were going to OT? He just needed to throw to a different player and away from Jones.
