Brees is the key and screens and quick passes are the only way for him to get in the groove.

Everyone knows this. Which is why you are seeing defenses shutting the screens down early. Our receivers aren't quick enough for the quick passes that made us so lethal in the past. So basically, we are getting in situations where we are having to look downfield. Brees is taking more time than ever to make decisions, mainly because it's taking forever for our Receivers to get open, and the Oline which never had to be world beaters, is getting there asses handed to them because they aren't good enough to give Brees 3-5 to find somebody. We simply don't have the horses this year. And frankly, I'm a bit concerned when we will after Graham is signed and almost all of our Offensive side of the salary cap is spent on 2 players. We need a solid draft of Olineman and another WR in the worst way.
