The Whole Thread Critical Of Brees By A Saints Fan!

[NawlinsLady]

He's short-ish.

[NawlinsLady]

He sticks his tongue out when he is going to throw.

[NawlinsLady]

C'mon, Drew, take the **** sack!

[NawlinsLady]

He spends too much time on the sidelines STUDYING the opponent.

[NawlinsLady]

Stop with the kids, already, Drew! Too much cuteness in one family just ain't fair!

[NawlinsLady]

Please stop trying to squeeze the ball to a quadrupled covered receiver. SEE: Take the sack, Drew!

[NawlinsLady]

Give someone else a chance to throw 5000 yards already, wait, it doesn't work that way, does it. Ne'mind

[NawlinsLady]

QUIT LICKING THOSE FINGERS! YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT BALL HAS BEEN!

Stop throwing so many interceptions!!! SEE: Take the sack, Drew.

Lol, I should do this for one of my favorite players, nice idea. The last one is probably Brees' biggest weakness, but he isn't horrible about the INTs. It seems he has his worst years regarding INTs in years when the Saints D is bad, he probably feels like he'll probably need to make more risky throws for their offense to score enough to win in those years, and maybe doesn't play as disciplined as he normally would.

[Gets12532]

You forgot to add he's getting old and he is declining...

Your not allowed to call anyone old...........

[Gets12532]

Old is the new 30 but in football terms? Well you know...

If you play RB it is....

If you play QB,DE,DT or OT its 35.

I think you pretty much covered everything!

I think you pretty much covered everything!

Im sure i could think of a few things to keep it going.

*insert comment about knowing exactly where my ball has been before licking my fingers*

[Trouble]

insert comment *** for the love of everything holy, please get the poo stain off your face.

[SaintRay]

" I need an explanation" ...Brees

Be quiet and throw another TD Drew

[SaintRay]

"Hey Drew, throw me something!!"

Me at the Lombardi Gras Parade in New Orleans after the Super Bowl victory.

Bish didn't throw me anything.

I love Drew Brees but I do have one complaint. He is at his deadliest when he doesn't lock in on a target, and spreads the ball around, especially hitting the open man. He had a tendency to focus on Jimmy Graham, to the detriment of the team, oft times throwing into double and triple coverage, when there was an open receiver underneath for decent yardage.

Hopefully, he will now look to hit the open receiver now.

[Bigtime A]

The fixation with Graham might have been related to that being his safety outlet and with the bad play at Oline forcing him to get rid of the ball fast with instant pressure in his face, throwing a high ball to Graham was usually either a caught jump ball or incompletion. Just a theiry, but it seemed like a direct correlation between his OLine play declining and his fixation on Graham increasing

I've no doubt about that.

Or could have been Brees trying to send Graham up the middle to get killed. Especially vs D`s we knew would try and take grahams head off.

[SaintsFanInLA]

Besides the dumps offs to the RBs (payton's staleness) he has locked in on Graham too much the last couple seasons. The old great Breesus surveyed the field and hit all open WRS. That was the great Breesus. This one is an imitation of the great one. He is still good but he'll never be what he once was!

You know, I was starting to give you the benefit of the doubt that you were indeed changing your ways. Was going to be one of your supporters if this issue came up. But it is obvious that JB is right in his assessment of you. Lesson learned.

I think your onto something here, as to why the Saints seemingly suffer very little with the loss of receivers(and TEs), and as to why some QBs actually may play BETTER without their top receivers. Brady seemed better, or at least just as good after Moss left in 2010.

Brady and Brees are similar in the regard that they do well with spreading the ball around, and not locking on a target. They are probably the 2 best in the league at finding the favorable match up, and having the discipline to take it consistently. The offenses they are in do a good job of giving receivers favorable match ups, so it works well for them.

However, if they lock in on a target of a great receiver, they may take riskier throws, if they are willing to toss it into coverage more often, relying on their receivers to win a ball skills battle. Perhaps without having great number 1 receivers, some QBs are less tempted to do this, and look for the open receiver more often.
