By the Saints never going downfield on throws the PI calls will always be one sided.

I watched a lot of games over the last two weeks with the Saints being on Monday and Sunday night.

The pass interference calls seem to even out in most games except for the Saints because they never throw it downfield. Therefore in a closely called pass interference game (last two saints games) the calls are one sided because the Saints, Payton, and Brees allow them to be. Challenge the opponents on 3rd and long with a deep pass. Seems to work for both the Raiders and Packers.

Me and my buddy were talking about this during the game last night. The lack of stretching the field limits so many things for this offense.

You dont even need all pro deep threats because Meacham and Henderson opened up so much for Colston and company when this offense was its most lethal.

Its nice to have a running back that can catch 15 balls and get 150+ a game but that won't get you to where you wanna be in January.

Offensive efficiency rankings last 3 years:
2019 - 2nd
2018 - 2nd
2017 - 1st

Brees arm doesn't seem to be any weaker than last year. I think it's way too early to freak out about the offense

Was just arguing this point with friends. Drew seems to have to load up for any throw over 10 yards and just wont pull the trigger. Its sad and a huge reason we can't win the close ones this year.
