D.J. Swearinger To Stop Brees
 
Quote:

ASHBURN, Va. -- Washington Redskins safety D.J. Swearinger texted his defensive back teammates Tuesday night with a simple message: Don’t let Drew Brees set the record. The responses? A series of exclamation points.

The New Orleans Saints quarterback is 201 yards from surpassing Peyton Manning as the NFL’s all-time career passing yardage leader. Certainly the schedule makers anticipated a big night, with this game being played on Monday night.

“We don’t want to see this happen at all,” Swearinger said.

Swearinger was part of a record-breaking game in the past. In 2013, Manning threw his NFL-record 51st touchdown pass of the season vs. Swearinger’s Houston Texans. In fact, Swearinger was the safety on the side of the field where Demaryius Thomas caught the 36-yard TD pass.

“I don’t want to be part of two quarterbacks breaking a record,” Swearinger said. “It’s not a good feeling on a defensive side when a quarterback breaks the record on your defense.”

Swearinger reminded the Redskins' defensive backs that they're allowing an average of 187 passing yards per game. So, he said, all they need is to have an average game when it comes to yards allowed and Brees would have to wait another week. But to make that happen, they’ll have to play an above-average game.

Keep in mind that Brees hasn’t thrown for fewer than 200 yards in a loss since 2013 in a Week 13 game vs. Seattle. He threw for 147 that day, averaging 3.69 yards per attempt. The Redskins nearly held him to fewer than 200 yards in a 2015 victory, but Brees still managed 209. There were two games in which Brees threw for fewer than 200 yards last season, but both were in blowout victories. That’s not what the Redskins want to see, either.

He has all season to break the record. If they want to stop the pass,we'll just give them a dose of Ingram and Kamara. I just want a win

Have a feeling Mr. Swearinger will wind up on the wrong side of history again.

So if they lose the game but stop the record mission accomplished?

"Look two feet in front of your face. See it? W > ANYTHING". That's what I would send him.

I really don’t like how sure everyone is he will get it done this game. We all know he will but the media is acting like it’s a done deal. Comments like “when Brees breaks the record Saturday yada yada” make me uncomfortable. Don’t jinx it man.
If he doesn’t make the record it will be because of one reason and one reason only.

Brees will probably get 200 just on screens and dump-offs in the flat to Ingram and Kamara.

Didn't Emmitt Smith try to get a record against us and got stuffed for negative yards? I vaguely remember that is how it went down. We also beat the crap out of them.

I could totally see this record not happen but that is because MI is returning. I think he is going to have a big day. Healthy, eager to play, high motivation to get a strong contract next year.

Agree. Brees historically thrives under this type of pressure. I also think Smith is going to explode soon. His preseason was exceptional, but in the past four games he's had four targets and one reception. Considering Ginn's play I expect Smith will be getting more of Brees' attention.

I feel like Drew is loved by his teammates so for me they're going to do what they can for him. I'd expect the Skins to come out fired up, but a few plays can end that momentum. I don't think this plays well with the team

I want to see us run it down their throats early with Mark and Alvin. Once they commit to that Drew will eat them alive.

Stop Brees? What a great idea. I wonder why nobody else ever thought of that.
