Now we have Jared Cook (see Brees comments in article). He's not just a TE but a threat defenses must account for. This will open up the offense.

You won't be able to cover Thomas, Kamara, Cook and not leave a hole.

And you're gonna have Ginn tearing the tops off of defenses, plus...

A coached-up, seasoned Tre'Quan Smith splitting the field opposite Michael Thomas...

FA Cook running down the seams with Kamara on wheel routes are underneath flats...

So Brees just needs to make his pre-snap read, determine who's getting double-teamed, and then take what the defenses give 'em...

So teams will be in dime packages with two of those defenders stuck in mano y' mano and five offensive linemen to block five defensive pass rushers...

Advantage ---> Saints...
