Time to dump him and get someone better.

I’m not trying to dump on Brees here, but yeah he doesn’t have the zip on his passes anymore for those 15 yard out routes. It’s pretty much slants, crossing routes and the check down’s to RB’s. Which is fine when everything’s clicking.

Which is exactly what TB does at a fraction of the price.

Yeah. Winston is well known for reading defenses and NOT throwing pics. Lol.

Look, I get it. Brees isnt a young man anymore. But can we end this discussion? It's boring. He's still a very good QB.

Last week was definitely an outlier. The OL was mostly to blame which was an outlier in itself.

Worked well for Brady all the way to another Lombardi last season.

Yep, and we have a perfect combo in MT and Kamara to have success with it. I’d love to get Krishawn Hogan more involved in the passing game because he has an excellent build and physicality judging by his run blocking.

Another receiver that’s 1/2 of Thomas on the other side of the field would extend Brees career another 2 years. We can only hope. Cook and Murray eventually caught on I’m hoping the same will happen with one of our other receivers in the next game or two. Somebody has to emerge to have a legit shot at the SB.
Interesting how our Oline didn’t miss a beat without Peat.

He did alright. Great team win. Defense definitely made it easier on him.
