Always had elite talent around him, a good coach, played in a dome, he should have multiple SBs
I wouldn't say he 'always had elite talent around him' either. The recent Saints teams were much more talented, but with Brees in his prime, other than Jimmy Graham who had a shelf life, is Marques Colston elite? Devery Henderson? Pierre Thomas? Best running back he had before Kamara was Darren Sproles who is kind of a Hall of Fame-level utility player.To be fair, he had some terrible defenses
Well while Brees benefitted playing in perfect conditions at home so did opposing QBs when playing them. the Saints defensive numbers were poorer by playing in the Superdome.To be fair, he had some terrible defenses
I doubt the noise in an intentionally crazy loud dome made for perfect conditions for road offences.Well while Brees benefitted playing in perfect conditions at home so did opposing QBs when playing them. the Saints defensive numbers were poorer by playing in the Superdome.
But no wind, no precipitation and no sun certainly made it easier to throw and catch.I doubt the noise in an intentionally crazy loud dome made for perfect conditions for road offences.
I definitely don’t dispute that. That shit is science. It would be interesting to hear from guys who have been in the game what makes for a shittier afternoon/evening: imperfect physical atmosphere like weather and field imperfections, or the mental strain of a jacked up indoors sound system/crowd and communication nightmares.But no wind, no precipitation and no sun certainly made it easier to throw and catch.
