New England win and Brees

The Dome was electric last night. If you weren't there or didn't get to watch it on ESPN the atmosphere inside that Dome was incredible. It was a big win for us. The importance of that win was that we played well on both sides of the ball against a really good team. It was a solid win against a solid opponent. We are always preaching and always harping about team wins, team togetherness. That showed up last night on a big stage against a great team. To be able to put together a complete game against the Patriots on Monday Night was great for this team. It was great for Drew Brees too. To play like that against a Belichick defense was huge. He did things against them that no one has ever done before, which only adds to his credibility as one of the best quarterbacks in the game. He has such football smarts and he prepares harder than anyone I have ever seen. Teams are always going to try to pressure him in different ways, but he always gets the ball off, throws with great accuracy, completes a big percentage and leads the league in touchdowns. He's not afraid to sit in there with everything coming at him and deliver the football on time and in the right place. He does a lot of mental work. I pride myself as a film study guy. I watch a ton of film every week and when I get tired of watching and finally get up to leave I walk past the quarterback room and there he is still watching film. He grinds it out like no one else. It's very impressive to watch and it's why he's as good as he is.
