Drew Brees will have New Orleans rocking
NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest.
Drew Brees leads a high powered offense
This is a great match up of the hot Philadelphia Eagles vs. the reborn New Orleans Saints. Drew Brees is going to try to keep the good times rolling in New Orleans.
Time to break this game down.
On the one hand,… there is Jeff Garcia, the Philly quarterback, his career reborn, directing his team to victory after victory. Jeff has Marty Morninweig as his offensive coordinator. Marty was his coach at Detroit and his quarterback coach at San Francisco. Philly runs the West Coast Offense and so did the Lions and so did the 49er’s, so Jeff is very familiar with the offense.
Jeff’s job is not to win the game for Philly. His job is not to lose the game for Philly. Philly has one of the best offensive lines and the best all purpose back in Bryant Westbrook.
Jeff replaced the injured Donovan McNabb. If you had Donovan in your Fantasy league it was a bad day when he went down, because Donovan was off to one of the all time great years. Jeff is not Donovan, but he does not have to be.
On the other hand, there is Drew Brees. In the off season, San Diego let him go, because they believed and rightly so, in Phillip Rivers. My Detroit Lions did not chase after him, because he was too small and coming off an injury, in spite of the fact that they got to see him multiple times playing for Purdue University.
Drew proved everyone wrong and is having a fabulous season. Coach Sean Payton has put together an imaginative offense to highlight Drew’s ability to throw short accurate throws and excellent medium range shows. Drew has receiver’s we have never heard of looking like All Pro’s.
By Drew’s side is the rookie Reggie Bush. In the first part of the year Reggie got all the publicity and did not do a whole lot. In the second half of the season Reggie came on to be a difference maker. Even at punt returner Reggie can change a game.
So we have Philly not skipping a beat after losing Donovan McNabb and New Orleans suddenly becoming one of the best teams in the league. Who will win?
Your intrepid author is more interested in the story of New Orleans and how much this football team has helped to restore some of the spirit in this town. The football team has done their part both on and off the field to restore the spirit of this great city of New Orleans.
Ok, ok, who is going to win?
Always dangerous to predict a game right before it is played, but here goes. Let’s take the Saints by 7. The score should be in the high 20’s or low 30’s. The high powered Saints offense will not be stopped.
