Brees is done

It’s the inconsistency that’s the sign of decline. Brees holds the record for 54 straight games with a TD pass and he’s had three games without one in the last year.

Best point thus far.

Wasn’t it the Falcons that ended his record streak. I may be wrong.

What I didn't like from Brees today was putting the ball into heavy coverage spots where our guys were getting hammered. Did it with Ginn, Thomas and nearly got TreQuan killed but somehow he made that catch helmet flying off and all. Gone was the usual route combos we use to free up guys and get a high percentage completion. The passing game was way too vanilla today. That is what I think Sean, Pete and Drew need to work on for next week.

Brees at 40 years old has a bad game, and we blame everything else.

I'm sorry the truth hurts, but Brees has declined and it's expected when you get to 40 years old. Manning was god awful his last year, Favre and Marino also looked terrible and we're now witnessing also; the declines of Brees and Brady. It just happens. People are nuts to think these guys will be playing at a high level until their 45.

I'm all for calling a spade a spade man. But wtf did Brees do that was so awful? The guy was running for his life for most the game. His picket was collapsing. our offensive line was garbage.

Could he have played better? Sure. But this loss is not on him. That's insane.

It looked more like we weren’t prepared in all facets today, and that’s on coaching, not to say drew looked like anything but doo. But we sucked all over

Oline was awful today ... hard to watch but the whole team played flat. The Dline was manhandled all day, losing 23 was huge. It all added it up but Brees done ... huge over reaction.

Well, someone not named Michael Thomas needs to get separation.
