re: Noodle arm

I sort of agree with you but not for the same reason.

I don't think the problem is Brees. I think the problem is very obviously Sean Payton. And I actually think Sean Paytons most valuable person on the team outside of maybe Jeff Ireland.

When Brees is in the game Sean calls a completely different offense. That offense is high-risk high-reward. Without a second receiver and a true passing threat at the tight end position, that offense is more risk than reward. Plus the defense plays completely different with the brees offense versus the teddy offense. I actually like the conservative, grind it out and win with defense offense that Sean was calling with Teddy Bridgewater. It was obviously more effective in producing wins.
