Notes..
- How on earth did this Tampa Bay team win it all? Seriously..? Yes, this game was a Blowout, but we took them to the cleaners twice!
- Brees was surgical at 15-20 yards, even in the rain and wind. He had passes to 11 or 12 different receivers. Few mistakes, and just Brees doing what he's done for 15 years. No 40-50 yard bombs, but 20+ a few times, and that should be enough with a team this talented. This version of pre-injury Brees, I'd take any day.
- Cook needs to go. Dude just cannot hang on to the ball. I had forgotten about his fumble in this game, but it brings back the sting of the playoff loss for sure.
- Davenport, Hendrickson, Cam.. I think I counted 5 sacks?! The entire defense played with fire, and successfully shut down Brady, Evans, Brate, Gronk, Fournette, and Brown... Unreal how we slipped so far from this level.
Look, Brees will probably retire, but this dude still has it, if he can stay healthy. His football IQ is just extraordinary. No one can play this game as banged up as he was going into the post-season.
I'm glad I have these games saved to go back and watch. I will always cherish what Brees has done.
What an amazing team, and it's a shame that it ended this way.
