The players got it right.
The Media got it right.
When will saints fans get it right?
I really have no problem with it. Most saints fans just want to see Brees #1 at something for a change people are just sick of him having to take a backseat to somebody else all the time. The only thing we want is him to get at least 1 MVP award which he should have got this year based on the fact that he's the more valuable player to his team. I dont want to start any argument and dont care about stats most saints fans just feel this was his year and now he'll never get the thing.
Another thing they hate about Rodgers is the fact that Mike McCarthy never gets any credit. Its always "Drew Brees and that system" but never any mention of Rodgers and his, McCarthy is every bit as good of an offensive coach as Payton. At times in the media you see complete bias on Brees for example everytime his name comes up Paytons name follows yet you will never hear McCarthys name in any Rodgers talk. McCarthy made Aaron Brooks look good for god sakes.
Drew Brees is the only qb to ever throw for 5,000 yards or even 4,500 without a single 1,000 yard receiver or 1,000 yard rusher without his best recever that year and Bush hurt most times so any supporting cast argument is worthless.
Now for the sterotypes. Just because a running back has catches doesn't mean its a dumpoff. Dumpoffs are guys wide open out of the backfield, our guys actually run routes and line up in the slot out of the backfield and are always accounted for. You get Darren Sproles covered by a linebacker why in heck would you not throw it to him?
He cant play outside: Drew Brees has the best road record of any qb in the last 3 years and his last game he had 4 tds and 400 yards with 2 should have been game winning drives against the best defense in the league. I dont where people get this from but its ridiculous. I can guarantee you if Rodgers or Brady played for a domed team they would be out of their element when playing elswhere.I also hate how people act like brees was siome wiley old veteran when he came here the man was only 26 a very young player. I give you this he sucks in the cold.
Just to add this for outsiders. Sean Payton was not our playcaller last year Pete Carmichael was at the offense avageraged 37.2 in the 12 games he called. Carmichael is still the OC and has been Brees' qb coach for 10 years ever since he was in San Diego.
People are already counting this team out without doing research. Our play caller is still here and we've had the maybe best free agency of the offseason signing Bro**** Bunkley, David Hawthrone, Curtis Lofton and Ben Grubbs. Carl Nicks name shoulnt even come up when we have a pro bowl guard to replace him.
I Don't mean to offend anyone if I did but this is what most saints fans believe. I dont see how people can even beleve we wont be any good with the team we have , we swept the falcons and panthers and actually made upgrades in the offseason while they stayed put just look at our schedule were 11-5 at worst and we may lose 1 game at home at the most.
Wish you guys good luck and hopefully Brees can finnaly get an MVP and we can get that matchup in the playoffs everyone wanted with us in the postseason.
