People obviously dont want him to throw picks and thats fine if there was a safety over the top for him to not throw that ball. However, his read progression is incredibly slow, so slow that on a 3rd and 5 he literally took the snap and checked down to a double covered Kamara immediately.

It is undoubtedly slow, but the let’s not pretend Brees hasn’t had games like this (worse games actually) in a losing effort.

Yeah, we usually lose the games where we fail to score less 17 points. So far this season, we've won 2 low scoring affairs and I'm happy with that.

That's a great observation - and at this point it testifies to how talented this team is and justifies fan expectations for success this year...
