Drew Brees is the 2nd Most Pressured QB in the NFL

Yep. The Oline is a big problem. The pressures are certainly leading to the interceptions.

In yesterday's game, Brees had been absolutely perfect up until the pick 6, and we were still just tied at home.

That is crazy

pressure and Brees' unwilling to take a sack earlier in the year.

He's been willingly taking the sacks lately though:
13 sacks since TB (6 games)
4 sacks from start to TB (5 games)

It's the line, Drew is having to do too much, the season is wearing on him

we wouldn't have a top 20 offense if he was getting sacked

Wins and losses are more important than offensive ranking. Rodgers gets sacked a lot but whose team is in a better position?

The point went over your head. I'm suggesting that this ability, even with the picks, is a net benefit. Sacks end drives

He's one of the least pressured QB's in the NFL. He's only been pressured 108x and doesn't carry near the same workload that Drew Brees does for us. He doesn't throw that much

Time to Sack for Drew Brees is 3.29 seconds. Time to sack for Aaron Rodgers is 2nd best @ 3.89 seconds.

The crazy thing is that Drew is getting rid of the ball quicker than ever this year at around 2.5 seconds

When Marc Trestman and his staff get fired, we need to bring Kromer back.

What is he in attempts? I'd argue we're throwing far too much at times as well which exacerbates the problem.

Brees ranked second on PFF.

Wouldn't have a problem if we drafted 3 olinemen. Fortunately interior linemen aren't exactly super high commodities. Should be able to grab quite a few good ones. I'd rather get maulers in draft and grab a FA corner.
