The Reason Drew Brees had so much Success

Recommended Posts

zone was only option as mentioned by others. Our backfield and pass rush will get better.

Our zone coverage will get better too. Lots of guys in no man's land yesterday looking a bit confused.

his success was because he was not on his back. if he's not on his back he is gonna make a good play. It's not because he is a genius, he just has the reps and the time back there to trust the experience he gained from those reps.

This was a big problem. Too many times Brees had all day to throw. You give him that much time he will pick apart the best secondaries. We have got to get some interior pressure.

I did notice on one play that there was a play-action away from Hardy, and he just stopped at the line and watched. By the time he tried to get pressure, Brees had already completed the pass. That kind of thing can't happen. You're backside...ATTACK! You're basically creating a cut-back lane by standing there. Had he just attacked to begin with, he would have gotten some pressure.

Notice a few times that our DL would get beat by blockers, and they just stopped their feet and started leaning on guys. I know they're young, but you can't win like that. You have to try to rip through guys. Didn't really help that the Saints OL was holding basically every play.

With our defense I'm happy they haven't completely lost us games. We've pretty much had a chance to win every single game this year which is surprising. I really thought that losing our key defensive players would equate to us not having at least a chance to win some games. With the personnel that we've got playing now it really makes you realize how great our defense could be without the key injuries.
