Maybe I didn't mean to attack and single you out, but I've heard a lot of whining about Brees on this board and it makes no sense whatsoever.
Where would we be without him? Really think about that.

Possibly 3-2 with McCown.
I appreciate everything Brees has done in the past, but if we are looking at strictly this season so far, you're seeing a qb who can't make the deep throws as much anymore to help loosen up the defensive coverage, continues to hold on to the ball too long, tries to look for the "home run" ball on 3rd and short when we just need a 1st down and hasn't really been protecting the ball as well as he should (also refuses to just throw it away, too). So there, I said it.
He's still trying to play like he's in his prime (and Payton apparently is still calling plays like we've got an elite passing attack and it hasn't worked). They both need to look in the mirror and realize where they are and where the team is.
At least with McCown, Payton seemed to be more in a "let's manage the game better" type of mindset, and it worked pretty well (minus that one bad throw/play call at the end.)
