The Saints are 2-0 with their backup QB and they are finding ways to win that don’t require Teddy Bridgewater to be perfect. The special teams and defense are doing such a special job at playing complimentary football that you hardly even notice Brees being gone.

Well, you notice when you look at the scoreboard, but in terms of paying attention to who is winning the game at any given time it isn’t so obvious.

Also, is there a better running back in the NFL today than Alvin Kamara? If you said yes then you are a liar and you need to skip to a different page because this isn’t for you.

Between Michael Thomas, Alvin Kamara, and a well coached combination of defense and special teams, the New Orleans Saints look poised to go to another NFC Championship game and they are going to have a motivated Drew Brees when that time comes around.
