Again, on average he's been fine and the OL mediocre, but pressure is one thing while forcing stupid throws is another. Did I say he was a bad QB? No. I think he's still a legit top 10 even top 5 QB if he eliminates the bone head mistakes.

He reminds me of Favre in the latter years. Favre played great and avoided mistakes like crazy, but still made his bone head play at the worst possible time (NFC CG). Did that mean Favre sucked? No. It did mean that he made a huge mistake, which is similar to what Brees has done multiple times this season.

The OL again is a big culprit here, but Brees is as much to blame in many cases for the struggles.

That isn't what you said. You said this:

but the fact is that the higher pressure numbers also come from his slower decision making this season.


When he's actually getting rid of the ball faster than ever yet is still seeing the most pressures of his career.

Then followed it up with this gem:

It's pretty obvious to anyone watching the game.



So he's getting sacked quicker than ever while getting rid of the ball quicker than ever

And also has the 3rd most INTs. His INTs have also been costly.



You've cracked this case.
