Drew Brees has the biggest drop off among elite QBs when on the road

He has the biggest drop off in the QB Rating (10 points), Completion Percentage (2% - excl. Rodgers) and Yards/Game (9 yds) when on the road compared to the other top QBs. The last nine games (1-8) couldn't have helped.
Why have the Saints and Brees been struggling so much on the road recently?

It's mind boggling. I've never seen a team go from almost unbeatable at home to complete shite on the road.

Drew needs to go see a sports psychologist. I'm not exaggerating. He obviously has all the skills and tools to be the best in his profession so his inability to perform on the road is 100% mental.

A lot of it has to do with our inability to block on the road too.
From 2009-2012, we were the best on the road. Even then, there was a drop off because we were godly at home
We need to do the no huddle that got us back in the game yesterday regularly on the road. The subs work at home, but we're not set until under 10 seconds on the clock while on the road

Their lone home game thus far this season wasn't that great of a display on offense either. His arm strength appears to be diminished, and opposing D's are stacking it in no further than 10 yds from the LOS. Unless, and until, he regains some semblance of a deep ball, I think the disparity between home and away will decrease, but not for the good.

So Brees' drop off is better than Brady's best? This thread a shot at Brees or Brady?

Brees is on pace for 30 TDs 4800 yards with a 70% completion and 100 QB rating
That's not washed up

So you haven't watched at all
We're facing a lot of cover 3s. Teams are keeping everything in front

He had arguably the best statistical deep ball of his career last year. 2nd in yards with the best rating.

So is he really an elite QB?

If Brees is still elite, then wtf is going on with the saints? They are one of the worst teams in the league right now.

Defense might be worse than 2012, bad special teams, and we've struggled in pass protection. Idk what is wrong with Colston, but he's dropping a lot of passes this year
We also hate running the ball for some reason, going 5 wide on first down while running down someone's throat.
Brees is having another great year and we have 7 of our last 12 in the dome:

Brady only losing 14 at home is pretty incredible

Belichick is a great coach

Are you blind?
Posted on 9/29/14 at 8:14 am to hg
Blind to what; the fact the saints are bad or that Brees is looking washed up?

are you familiar with that entire part of the game called defense?

The defense has struggled for years but Brees was always able to overcome their shortcomings. They had 3 points in 3 quarters yesterday. You wanna blame that all on the defense?
