No, it's not. We have all of our money in interior, because Brees is flustered by pressure up the middle.


That may be true, but call me crazy... if Brees MUST take a hit, I'd rather it be a hit he can see and brace for than one from the blindside. Which usually results in a fumble.

If you've ever seen Brees play, you'd know the dude has eyes in the back of his head. He is excellent at moving in the pocket. It's much easier for him to dodge D-Linemen coming from the side than it is coming from the middle.

He's so good at presnap reads, and having an internal clock and sensing pressure, that he rarely takes a hit he's not ready for.

He needs good tackle play. I remember we lost the Chiefs game last year because Strief couldn't block anybody.

I think we'll have it. Someone is gonna step up out of those 3. Keep in mine CSP likes to run a lot of screens and will probably reemphasize the running game this year. Last year we were really unimaginative. We'd run on first down, get two yards, run a hard play action on second, and then go 5 wide on third. It was frustrating.

What will slow down an opposing teams pass rush is thinking. With our offensive master mind back, teams aren't going to be able to tee off on us like last year.

This is a load of crap, the one plays you dont want pressure on a QB is up the middle. Pressure up the middle damn near guarantees a play wont be successful and a QB is much more likely to get seriously injured from a guy running straight at him
