Can Drew Brees still throw it deep?
I think Drew still has enough to be effective throwing the deep pass. His throw to Arnold in the Rams game - hit Arnold in the hands. It was a dropped pass, but the throw was good. I believe it was last season where Brees threw a deep ball to Mike Thomas in the end zone. Again, it hit him right in the hands. Mike just didn’t get both feet down. But it was a good throw.
Has Drew over or under thrown some deep passes? Yep. But he also has had some bad passes on short and intermediate throws. He’s not infallible. Drew can even be counted on for a few wtf passes per season.
I am not denying Drew has lost some zip on his passes. He’s 40. I get it. But I don’t see him in some sort of significant decline.
